Time has been short this week as the garden has been calling and could no longer be ignored. To cap it all, Mr Blogger has been on a go slow this end and yesterday wouldn't load any pages at all for me so I couldn't visit anyone. I hope to have more luck today.
So, I'm hoping I can get away with three challenges using this card. The first is Cute Daisy May, the challenge being to use embossing - the second is the Tanda Teaser - who wanted us to use the resist technique and the third is Rainbow Lady's challenge - 5 a day - to have five items of fruit or veg on our creations and the number 5. (I really don't think this card would suit a five year old so I hope she doesn't mind if I skip that bit.)

The main image is an Elusive Images stamp, embossed with detail white and then sponged over with distress inks. I then sprayed it with Crafters Companion's silver glitter spray. The background paper is from Joanna Sheen's Victorian Animals and Nature CD, there a five clumps of peaches and whitecurrants up the border, and the text tag was made using my Nestabilities. The paper lace across the bottom was coloured with Stazon Timber Brown.
Thanks very much for visiting.

This is just lovely Beryl. Your resist technique is stunning.
Sorry to hear about your computer problems. Are you using Internet Explorer? A lot of people seem to be having problems with it and I changed to Firefox a couple of weeks ago and have not had any problems since. If you are struggling with IE, try changing your Browser.
Hope this helps.

Beryl, what a gorgeous card. I love the stamped image with the distress ink pads. I've only got one of these and can see I need some more. Sorry to hear you are having problems getting onto blog pages. I had this about 6 weeks or so ago until my son got me stop using Internet Explorer and use something else. I haven't looked back apart from my FeedBlitz e-mails aren't working as they should but it's a problem with it speaking to blogger. Hope you get back to rights soon. Best wishes, Kym xxx
