i thought it was too good to be true!!!!! just as i got started on my cards my daughter rang and asked me to take her to tesco's, and i ended up staying there until 8.30....... not managed to get much done. i started this card last night so at least i have got it finished. the challenge this week on just magnolia is a sketch. the stamp is tilda in the sea, the lighthouses and sandcastle are magnolias all from the glitterpot. the lighthouses and sandcastle have been stamped onto shrink plastic and then shrunk. everything else is from my stash. hope you have had a good day x
i am off work today, i had a hospital appointment and i was seen really quickly!!!(very unusual for the NHS) so i thought i would make the most of my time and do some cards. this card is for my friend whose son has been travelling in south america for a year so she thought it would be good to do a welcome home card and these are his favourite colours too. this is a bit different for me as i do love my pattern papers but i managed to get a little bit in!!! the card is for the challenge on cute card thursday, which this week is letters and numbers. the stamp i have used is from elzybells art stamps the paper used on the son wording is from basic grey, the alphabet stamp is from dimensions fourth. i have added diamond glaze to the letters. oh i do prattle on. should be back later with a lot less to say!!!!!!! lol
Thankyou for dropping by to look at my works of art. Little did I know when I started making cards that I would get hooked, well I most certainly did and I must say it has been great fun. Late nights and very little housework have become the norm. x
