1st Challenge - Sunshine Kisses And Rainbow Wishes

It's the start of a new month, so this means new challenges, three in fact, so here's my first. Sir Stampalot . So August's challenge theme is "Whatever You Fancy", So nice and easy. The team have come up with some gorgeous inspiration for you and if you want to see the fab prize kindly donated by Sir Stampalot themselves, here it is:-

It seems that we are having quite a few peeps not sticking to our rules, so if you would like to be in with a chance to win the above prize then plaese remember entries may be combined with a maximum of five other challenges - i.e: six in total.


So onto my card for this months challenge, I had a right good old play. I got Craft Stamper magazine last month for the first time (just been back and got this months, I'm hooked, I love it), and made my first tag using Distress Inks, embossing powder and a stamp, I know i'm a bit behind everyone else in the techniques department Lol! So I incorporated the tag onto my card. See my recipe below for details.
