Never throw out mistakes!

You know sometimes, when trying to squeeze in a little card making before you need to be somewhere else and you get ink on your hand and you manage to get it on a section of the card that you were hoping to be blank? Just trim off the affected area, and . . . 


. . . then you have a card front ready for a quick card ;-)

I love the DistINKtive detail of this stamp, 
and tulips are such a happy flower,
keep smiling with card making,
