What A Relief!!

Posting this one quite early for me as I didn't get an awful lot of sleep - was worried about the baby seagull last night as he was still in our garden when I went to bed and I was afraid the foxes or badgers might eat him! Anyway woke this morning to see an empty garden which wasn't covered in feathers - thank goodness!! Looks like he made it over a couple of fences and is a bit closer to his nest now!

Back to cards, and here's one I made yesterday because I couldn't get my washing done!



The image which is Magnolia, was stamped for me by Vanessa and I coloured it with Promarkers. Papers are from Pink Petticoat and layered with my favourite mirricard! Sentiment is from Woodware and flowers and brad are from my stash. It's actually alot pinker IRL but I do love this paper.....one of my favourites I think!


Off to get the boys ready for school now - have a good day.

Week 2 of Techniques

It’s the second week of Tando’s FB Live and the tutorial was by Jane Royston. This week the colours are more my style. I didn’t have the exact supplies so had to improvise a little. This was the end result... I love doing these tutorials.  I put aside time for me on a Saturday morning and just get lost in the moment...all worries are forgotten for an hour or so.  I would highly recommend it.

Chocolate Somethings

Friday again and Half Term has started! The boys finished school yesterday so hopefully, we've got a fun day together! The challenge on Stamp Something this week is chocolate - everybody's favourite! and there's one stamp I turn to when that word is mentioned. I've followed the sketch on Mojo Monday for this card. The image is from Penny Black and has been coloured with Promarkers. Cardstock is Bazzill Bling and papers are Doodlebug. Matted the image onto some c.s. which has been run through the Cuttlebug and threaded some ribbon through using SU slot punch. Finally added a brad from my stash . A big thank you to Jose for helping me with my images......love the way some of you girls have been putting a sneak peek at the top of your posts and Jose was nice enough (and clever enough) to explain how to do it. Hope you all have a great weekend.
