For once I'm actually quite happy with how this turned out :o) I had no plan, I just played with the inks on a scrap of linen card, added a Hero Arts stamp and a Penny Black sentiment. The base was going to be white, but then I happened to have some dark brown card on my desk and it seemed to set off the stamped panel quite well, so my base is dark brown card from Papermill Direct.
I'm also entering my card for the following challenges:
- Truly Scrumptious - clean & simple
- Simon Says - anything goes
Further to my car saga - I've left it with my mum's hubby Andrew who knows what he's doing with cars. He says fixing it isn't a problem, but it's going to take a while - I might be without my car for up to 2 weeks, which is going to be no fun for doing the school/nursery run as I'm about 30-40mins walk away and it's all uphill on the way there. Not much fun for me, but even less fun for Dex with his little legs bless him!

Great card Lisa, love the inky background. Hope your car is soon mended. Carol x
beautiful Lisa!! I did think about this challenge but my eyes are a bit of a mix too...well I have 1 and three quarters brown and the other quarter is greeny brown, certainly as I was younger it was more prominent!!
I love this card Lisa - perfect for Hazel, which is my eye colour too and I couldn't quite decide myself how to interpret this one. Hugs, Claire x

Hi Lisa
If your eyes are the same colour as this card - they must be stunning - as is the card.
Hope you get the car sorted real soon - it's a real pain in the behind when you have no transport - especially when you have little ones.
Have a great day.

Oh yes! Simply gorgeous card. I wonder, could you enter with red for when you're red eyed from tiredness or a tad too much wine? Just thinking aloud :) Di xx
