good morning crafters
back to share my second festive card today using Melody.
my image has been painted with distress ink using some newer colours that i've added to my distress ink pallet.
i do enjoy using distress ink and i also use the valuable lessons and technics i have gained from kit and clowder. Alyce is an excellent teacher, everything you learn is transferable to using other mediums.

designer papers used for this card
for this design i have dug out a few of my dies and a new sentiment stamp to complete my project.
taking snaps shots:
i have tried various layouts when taking photos of my projects but at the minute i am in the middle of rearranging my craft room and once i'm happy with how it's laid out hopefully i will have a proper area to take my snaps until then my living room mantle will do but then again i will be in a teather as my christmas tree and christmas displays are on the agenda this weekend. lol
