I  decided  to  make another  double  z  card  with  this  stamp  .  The  stamp is  from L.O.T.V. And is  called  Toy  cupboard  . After colouring it  with  Promarkers  I used  papers from the works  and  wood  grain  paper  to  cover  all parts of  the  card including  some  kraft  card  dry  embossed  with  a  stone  folder   . I  found  a doll  amongst  my  stash  which  came  from  a pound  shop  ages  ago  and  I  thought  she  was  appropriate  on  the front . To  complete  I  added card  candi  and  a  sentiment  .
