Thank you card for Ruth...

I can post this now I know she has received it! :o) This was a thank you for my Funky Hand design team mate, Ruth of Tip Top Toppers, for a very generous RAK package she sent me. You can check out Ruth's talented creations on her blog, HERE.

There are three things to point out about this card.. Firstly and secondly, that it uses HOTP swirl stamps, and papers from Funky Hand's 'It's Funky Too' CD-Rom, and - thirdly - that the layout was inspired by this beautiful penguin card by Laurie Serino* in Alaska, on her blog, Stamping for God's Glory, HERE.

* Laurie ~ If you're not happy about this, please let me know and I will remove it from my blog.
