A bright start to the week!

 




We Will Remember Them 




Good Monday Morning Ladies, 

There are no words that can explain the debt of gratitude we owe to those that gave their lives so that we can live ours freely, not forgetting those that are still selflessly giving their all to keep us safe.  We will always remember them ❤️ 

Welcome to the start of a new week, fingers crossed that this one features a little bit of ☀️ sunshine!! 

We had quite the relaxed Sunday,  I spent most of the morning clearing my craft desk....

From this disaster....



To this....



That small 6 inch area was my crafting space for the last half of last week!   So now I have a nice clean & tidy space to start the week with, hopefully it will inspire some creativity 🤞                                 The afternoon was spent baking, I made Fruit scones & Cheese scones, both turned out well and tasted deliscious.
Oh Paul went into loft and got my sewing machine down so I am excited to have a play with that this week too. 

Today's card is a lovely bright and cheerful design, inspired by Pinterest posts, I used a brush stroke die to cut 5 strips from bright and cheerful colours in my stash.  I then die cut the friend die from blCk & white card and layered them and then used the outer die from a pretty heart die featured in the same collection as the friend die, I cut the rest of the sentiment from a pad in my stash and finished with some pearls.


These are the dies I used for today's card & tomorrow's too!  I love them. 

That's all for today, I hope you have a good start to the week,

Love & hugs to all,

Sandra xxx

  2. Hi everyone
    Great card Sandra. Love the dies that you have used. A really cheerful card to start the week.

  3. Evening All, a bit brighter today, but much colder.

    Sandra great card, love those strip dies and those lovely bright papers.
    My voucher has arrived, so I’ll have a think what I’ll get.
    Was going to do my bright card, but most bits ended in the bin, I’m not good with bright colours.
    Goodnight all, Lilian
