Hi!

Today I finally got time to create a card for the Tuesday Trigger at Moxie Fab world.

  

 

 

 I was inspired by the patterns, the colors and the sitee (or whatever it is called in English (-: I actually don't really know what it would be in Swedish... )

I used stamps from an old Hero Arts set that I love -  Wish you were here - For A blog named Hero. The dog is from Lawn Fawn.

 

 

 

 

Have a great Sunday, hugs, Karin
