The card challenge as ever by Natty, thank you.
Monochromatic today, I have been inspired by Olga Heldwein as well today.I love the delicate but chunky look of her work.

Shakespeare. Well I thought of this line as my new stash was opened. Thank you Creative Craft World, ace service from Lou.
“First, there is the Neopolitan prince.” I do actually know this play as it was a syllabus text. I remember the drama of it very well. I also remember thinking that my english teacher would make a good Shylock on stage, though he did tend towards the theatrical. It wasn’t The Globe. There was a bit of arm flourishing. There was ‘pronouncement’ of important parts. I remember that it was hot summer afternoons with the sight of the sea in the distance when we studied it. I remember enjoying it but anticipating it’s end too so I could escape. So it must have been last lesson. Must have been.
So why that line? Dear Lizzy Neopolitan 6x6 was in my stash box. I used the greeny-blue spotty paper as the bottom scalloped circle Smile
