So there I am this morning, turned on the PC and more importantly the kettle for my first cuppa a tea and everything went black. The only light we had was the torch my DD had in her bag that Santa brought her for the dark nights when she was out driving, which she left for me. Thank goodness the power cut was only for hour I was already having withdrawal symptoms from missing my cup of tea.
So here's the card I was unhappy with yesterday, I was pleased that A Spoonful of Sugar challenge was for a freestyle card cos this Penny Black Shoe image as been waiting for a suitable challenge for a while.
It is quite a large image and then I purposely tried to use the lattice punch so it had a post in the middle to make it look like a fence which is why there's a ball on the top of the post, not sure I like it now. Then I wanted to use some flowers in the corner but I couldn't find the right colours or the right size so I settled with this one and now I'm not so sure.
Well today another day so I will try and make another card and maybe it won't bug me like this one of course thats all depending that the lights stay on!

Hi Debby, I don't not why you are not so sure about this card, its lovely and the colours are fine on the photo, so enter it anyway into the challenge - you are like me, you tend to criticise your own work when others think its fab! BTW your cards are absolutely gorgeous.

Sweet image.
Hugs Suze xx
All those doubts must have been caused from the lack of a morning cuppa! I think your card looks fantastic and your fence looks great!!
You sound like me. Sometimes you're just not sure if it's the right piece for your card but in the end it all comes together beautifully and no one sees the torture you've just been through to get it 'just right'. lol.
