Simple Star and Bauble Card


Can you believe it's only four sleeps to go until that chubby chap comes a calling lol!  Are you all ready for the big day.  I was thinking I am but have just thought of a few more things I've just got to get so am off to join the crowds of Christmas shoppers this afternoon .
My card today is a quick and simple one  coloured with distress pens.  I've made it in two colour ways but the process is the same.

IndigoBlu Tags  Happy Friday everyone If your a follower of mine you 'll know that I've been off work for a while following an op, but my life as a lady of leisure came to an end this week when I returned to the world of totally british beautiful fast fast cars and ones that go anywhere!!  I had a wonderful welcome back from my colleagues so thanks to everyone for making my first day as good as it was.  I thought I'd feel like the new girl, not able to remember anything, but just like riding a bike it all came flooding back :-) Now I feel like I've not been away lol!!!    I cant deny I'm not pleased its the weekend and I've got time to re charge my batteries before attempting another 5 days on the trot :-)  As I've just joined the IndigoBlu team official this week I thought I'd share a couple of tags with you made with stamps from the  Pomp and Pageantry and Grand Tour 1 plates and the ledger background which I really love.  Tag 1 IndigoBlu
