I have used this gorgeous image from the House of Smethers, along with the cherry stickers which I used to make the DP. The edges of the DP and the image were both sponged, the corners of the image ticketed (with a small circle punch) and red brads used once black card had been added.
Torn and inked corners were added and the sentiment comes from a set of clear stamps my eldest daughter Bronte gave me for Christmas.
What do you think - I have to say I love this image and would love to say I looked like that when I bake...but I would be dreaming...I usually have flour hand prints all over me....I won't be more specific LOL!!!
Thanks for looking and for your comments! It was hard to get a good photo of this card due to extreme heat 39 degrees Celsius at 6pm this evening - sizzling!!!

I like those torn and inked corners you do, Linda.
I can tell you I don't look like that when I am baking either - only in my dreams. Gorgeous card.
Sizzling heat, yikes - but at least you are west coast, are you? Was hearing about the bush-fires on the east coast on World Service last night.
