We have our Grandchildren staying with us during the Summer Holidays, and last week they went to the Circus, that also had a Fun Fair
That got me to thinking about the design of today's card. It just reminds me of my own childhood, when the funfair, playing Hoopla for Goldfish in a Jar.
I have used the
Jar of Love & Co-coordinating Every Day Jars Framelits Dies.
You can purchase these items individually, or you can opt for the Bundle & Save option, giving you a 10% discount on the purchase price.
The stamp set offers so endless possibilities, and each stamp has a co-ordinating Die
I went with an orange, Gray & White Colour-scheme, and a Mint Macaron Paper from the
Affectionately Yours Designer Series Paper Pack (which includes two glorious foiled papers)
I added co-ordinating Enamel Dots and Gold Thread to complete the card,
