Simon Says - show a word

And the word is - Love!  Check out the challenge here.  I wasn't sure what word to choose, but in the end I went for love, because I got some new stamps today (more of that in a bit)

Some time ago I started to decorate this canvas but didn't like how it was turning out, so painted over it with some Claudine Hellmuth paint yesterday.
I used some of my new Paperartsy stamps and some idea-ology.
This flower trim is beautiful - and you can colour it however you like! This is a distress reinker/perfect pearl mix I made up but I haven't labelled the mini mister so I can't remember which colours!!
The hearts are coloured with spun sugar and edged with worn lipstick. Mwah!!



And these are my new stamps - just a few!!  Thanks to my SIL! I picked them up from hers on my way home from work - just a few £££ lighter....!


I have the day off tomorrow but sadly won't get to play more - got the long awaited hospital follow up with the neuro-chap about why I've lost some vision in my eye (as burbled on about in November!)
Will let you know what they say!
