Clean and Simple

 Here is a CAS card that came from nowhere - I had been using the Hero Arts stamp set for another card, and all of a sudden this little branch jumped out
and here is the result.... 



I used distress inks, then just matted each layer with black,  the sentiment is a old Stampin Up one, and I used my new favourite way of adding some sparkle - a few sequins. Cheap as chips and I think they look really effective...



Those of you who are hoping the markers will be up for grabs again, may be in luck. Still no word from the winner, who was called Lesley Lawton, so if I haven't heard from by the end of today, I will draw another winner from all the comments made on the original post tomorrow. See you then x
