Thank you cards

Hi all,well i now have black and yellow hands but have completed my mission of making the thank you cards to send out to family and friends. Used the freebie stamps from papercraft inspirations and this is the result.
I used the foliage stamp in the set to make a border on my card and stamped direct onto card blank ( did have two whoopsies! doing that ) used the ladybirds and masked off one as its two together and then stamped direct onto card also and coloured with my beloved promarkers. Image was stamped and then coloured also with promarkers and i used mustard seed distress ink whilst image was still in the nestie thus giving me the white border which i love :)
Greeting is a Hero arts stamp and distressed again same as main image. Am pleased with the end result especially as i have made 8 of them!! A word of caution if you do get the stamps peel them carefully off the carrier sheet as they are very sticky and liable to tear.
Right off to cook some tea for the family and then some blog hopping later. Only two sleeps to my birthday,x
