LIM week 25 recipe

It's week 25 now over at 'Less is More', this
week it's a recipe (button or ribbon). I pulled
a muscle in my shoulder/back the other day &
have been in a lot of pain and not sleeping.
However I managed to cobble together a
quick card today. Not brilliant I know,
but I had a 'go' at least. I may do another
.......I may not, depends on this nagging pain
I have, feels like someone is stabbing me with
a sharp knife atm.Sorry for the moan, on with
the card details.
PP pink damask card which I stamped with my
(create a scene) tree stamp in white ink. I embossed
that in seafoam white then shaded the trees with a
little green chalk here and there. I used the dots folder
to emboss another matt which I also shaded with
green chalk.I added some white organza ribbon
which I edged in green with my Promarkers . I used
a just for you sentiment stamp stamped in  lime green ink.
The green was too dark so I embossed it in seafoam
white to make it match the trees( handy hint).I coloured
some clear gems with a promarker in green to match it too.
Hmmm still not sure......sorry photo isn't good either,
looks better in real life.........off for yet another pain killer
arrgghhhhh!

Lovely card Viv, gorgeous colours. I can really sympathise with you about your shoulder, I had the same thing a couple of months ago. You need to rest it so you are alright for your sons wedding. Ours is in september so a bit longer to wait. Hope you feel better soon.
