Happy you're my friend

Hello there! It's another very wet cold day here in Tassie and it's lovely to find some time to get into my craft room and have a play:) I enjoyed making my own background for this card using some sponge daubers and hero arts inks. I also added some white pigment ink to soften the colours before adding my die-cut tree and sentiment.

Thanks for stopping by today xx
