Masquerade, painted faces on parade...

Hi all,
I can't believe where the week has gone.  Today, we spent the morning at a friends house and then Daisy had a dance lesson after school.  Martha came too and watched, but insisted on wearing her dance dress and ballet shoes too.  I have been having troubles with my printer and it completely gave up this Monday, and so all my plans of getting ahead with my DT makes went out of the window.
Over at CRAFT, our theme is to use or make a mask.  I know that there are many definitions of a mask and masking in craft, but I decided to go literal and use a mask stamp I had in my stash.  The main image is Birthday Kids 12 by Stamp Fairy, one of our sponsors.  I used dies I bought at the NEC and some very fine blue net between the backing paper and the image.  I think this would make a good party invitation, but it would have to be a very small party, as it took a while to make!
See you later.
