I have also just noticed that one of my cards was featured on the Spotlight on October the 5th over at SWEET STOP SKETCH! The reason I have only just noticed it was because last Saturday I was in Harrogate so forgot to pop over! *blush* anyway even though it is late I am still chuffed that it was featured!

Onto today's card I'm back with another card for J&C CREATIONS that has combined using Spellbinders Dies with Inks! I have used one of the basic sets which I will admit I had only used previously to cut out stamped images. However I have used the cut outs this time to create a background! Along with using some of my new goodies ...
