Paper Piercing

Many thanks for your prayers and messages for my husband's health.  I will keep you updated.

This afternoon I have taken some much-needed time out for *me*, totally ignoring the two sets of exercise books needing marking, the three foot pile of ironing and our disgusting kitchen floor!!

It's been ages since I've taken part in Less is More, though I still have a nosey most Saturday mornings, so I really enjoyed paper piercing for this week's challenge.  I rooted through my stamp sets to find something suitable and my eye fell upon Flowering Flourishes as I've seen some really beautiful cards on Pinterest made using this stamp set.  As part of the flourish design is done in dots, I decided to pierce them.

I couldn't decide what to add for the sentiment and was about to make it an anniversary card when my mobile beeped... it was a dear friend who told me of her engagement to another friend of ours.  Well, with such happy happy news, the card just had to become a congratulations card for them both.


Supplies
Stamps: Flowering Flourishes, Trust God
Ink: Basic Black, Raspberry Ripple (this is my absolute favourite of the new in-colours!)
Card: Whisper White, Raspberry Ripple
Other: stamp-a-ma-jig, Elegant Butterfly punch, pearls

I'd also like to join in again with Word Art Wednesday's challenge.

I just love today's cat picture (assuming the spelling mistakes are deliberate... linguist's nervous twitch!):
