Water

 With all the rain we had in England how appropriate that the challenge at Totally Gorjuss this week is

WATER

Our sponsor is Heathers Hobbie Haven

Here is my card. I have used one of the gorgeous LOTV stamps.

 I coloured the metallic corner with a dark Promarker. It was silver to begin with.

I kept the card fairly simple. I would love to add flowers ,but i am not sure how much a boy would like that !

Have a good weekend . I hope it is not too wet!
