Morning readers,
Hope you all had a great weekend and that the weather didn't spoil any arrangements you may have had. After the freaky hot weather of last week the weekend MAY have come as a bit of a disappointment ... I had to don winter slippers and a cardi, I felt positively chilly last night. I don't think the freaky weather is done with us yet either - look at last nights sky ...
I've a make to share with you today ....... I DO love to layer stamped images and haven't done it for a while so, here goes nothing!

Great photos of the sunset Kathy and that sky looks terrific. I love the mix of stamps and great colours for the first masculine card, and then the pretty PB silhouette flowers with the mesh stencilled in delightful pink tones in the background, and the similar look on the purple background card using a grid stencil which coordinates beautifully, and that lovely sentiment too. x
Love your layered stamping, what a great effect. I don't think I have ever tried that so I must learn to be more adventurous. Love the background and colour of your ATC too. Thanks for sharing the first one with us at we love stamping this month xx
