Hi Everyone, sorry I've been AWOL. A couple of weeks ago I was out watering the pots on the edge of the lawn, hubby called, I turned and was closer to the edge of the step than I thought. Over I go onto the concrete. It was a bad fall and may have broken one or two ribs. I also pulled my lower leg muscle and my poor knees had a bad time too, also my left breast it really has been an ouch time. I didn't attend A&E as I was convinced it was just a bruised muscle, but the pain became worse last week and I had to attend A&E. I was told it was probably broken or fractured rib/s, but an X-Ray was not required, as there was no treatment even if it/they were broken and to just keep taking painkillers, although I was given stronger ones to help me sleep.
Anyhow, that's my reason for not visiting, although I did manage a little time on some days and tried to comment on some blogs, those I didn't I apologise.
Now onto why you are here, my card. I made it before my fall and can't remember why I did it? Maybe a challenge or something? I had this radio digital stamp a long while and used it for this card. I followed a sketch, used my Cameo to cut out 2 layers of the Radio and then coloured it with inks. Using clear powder to heat embossed it, although I don't think you can see the shine in the photo. I had a vintage paper pad and die cut pieces to make the sketch. I took a Kraft scalloped ready card and splattered it with gold ink, added the radio with 3D pads and the sentiment I also made and cut with the Cameo and also heat embossed all over. Quite simple really.

Like the idea of the gold splats onto the Kraft base Faith, really dRes the eye into the other elements, nicely done.
