I have used the gorgeous Ching-Chou Kuik's Red Hearts which is available as a single stamp and also on Sheet 6, plate 28 which is amazing value for money from Crafts & Me . I love all the Sweet Pea Stamps and am so happy to have a place to buy them from in the UK. I bought the fab frame and Basic Grey papers from Harrogate craft show last weekend. I didn't realise the frame was so big but it is perfect for these images! Oooh, I also got the lovely borderability dies last week too and I love them on my easel card. The yummy roses are from Wild Orchid Crafts (where else) and the punch for my leaves is available from here.

Remember, you have 2 weeks to join in and you can combine challenges and use any stamp you lie .... but there is a chance to win a special prize for those using a Sweet Pea Stamp ...... lucky things!
