Good Wednesday Morning Ladies,
We had a very productive day yesterday, Lucy and I set up a production line, we started by adhering the pockets into the invitation wallet part, I trimmed the corners so that we got a neat fold and lucy added glue and stuck them in. I then moved onto the letterpressed part of the invitation, I used my TH Deckle trimmer to deckle the edges and then we moved onto adding Versamark ink and dipping into gold embossing powder, over and over and over again, final part heat setting all edges, we started about 11am today and embossed the last one at 5 45pm. Its good to see them done though. We are on the home straight now !
Thankfully Karen was kind enough to allow me to share her gorgeous Snippet.
Karen's Description:
I made this Snippet yesterday (Sunday) and turned it into a card Don’t know number of Snippet coz I found it after doing a search on FB

Karen what a gorgeous Snippet, I love the colours and the your design, the purple of the crocus really lifts the card. I love that background stamp too 😍

You are most welcome I am always happy to help I found this Snippet by doing a search on the Aall and Create Fanatics page under #624 I just happened to have the ingredients too which is rare for me Not knowing the number I decided to turn it into a card I really enjoy doing the Tracy Evans Snippets
ReplyDeleteThe invites sound amazing I’m glad you’re able to have a bit of help because even though our daughter’s was a lot simpler than Becca’s I know it’s an odious task
Out to lunch with my sister in law today OH needs to do a bit of shopping in Aldi and I will look at the yarn and then to Knit and Natter first
Take care everyone xx
Hello ,cold and wet here today, seems never ending.
ReplyDeleteKaren great arty card, you are so good at doing this type of card , I just end up with a mess.
Didn’t get much done today, just can’t think what to make, think it will be a journal page.
I have been watching Tracy this afternoon, she makes everything look easy.
Sandra great to hear how the invitations are going so well.
Have a good evening everyone. Lilian
Hi everyone
ReplyDeleteLove your snippet card Karen, it’s beautiful 😍
Glad to hear the invitations are going well, they will look beautiful when all finished 😊
Done some more crafting today, then sat down to start watching The Castaways with Sheridan Smith, it’s really good.
Hope you’ve all had a good day
Sending hugs to you all xxx
Hi Sandra and all looking in.
ReplyDeleteKaren your card is beautiful. I love that Crocus and the purple and Kraft card colour combo work so well together xx
Sandra, it’s good to hear you are getting on well with the invites xx
Been busy again today doing several bits of paperwork that all needed to be printed. Of course the printer decided not to work. After a lot of fiddling around and trying all sorts I finally managed to get one sheet printed. Let’s just say I was not amused! Anyway sleep well all. Take care. Love Sue xx
Hello Sandra and everyone,
ReplyDeleteSo pleased Karen was able to save the day with this beautiful card, the Crocus stands out so well against the brilliant background and. The colours and perfect.
Sounds like your production line with Lucy worked well, you will be able to set up your own personised printing company at this rated.
The weather today has been much better at least no rain!
This morning I got on with vacuuming around and was able to sit and relax after lunch. Hope you ladies have had a rewarding day.
Take care and sleep well, goodnight, Love Brenda xxx
