Good Wednesday Morning Ladies,
Lucy and I had a fun filled afternoon out yesterday, if course she wanted to go to a garden centre! Now I don't always believe in 'fate' but I can be convinced.. On Sunday I spotted a really unusual House plant that I really likes, when Paul handed it to me to look at a bit fell off in my hand, so I kept it, 😯. Anyway they were £20 plus so I made do with my 'offcut', we visited a different garden centre this time (the one where Paul and I get the bargains)! We wandered round, I let her pick a couple Osteospernems and a Geranium, for our Patio pots, we then went inside to the house plants, we were a little underwhelmed and so went to pay, right by the tills was a 'Bargain Corner ', can you believe they had two of the quirky plants that I spotted in the expensive garden centre, reduced to £5 !!!
We did get the giggles though because the plants are quite fragile, Lucy pulled out of the parking space and one of them fell over, a little bits rolled everywhere, I squealed 'Eeyah your killing the poor thing, the bits are rolling all over" she glanced over and got hysterics, we had to re-park and sort the situation out and then composed ourselves! I ended up holding them both all the way home.
Today's card I wasn't sure of, I got the inspiration from Pinterest, I smooshed Kitsch Flamingo & Fossilised Amber Distress inks (one at a time) onto a place of acetate, spritzed it with water, then smooshed it onto the card, I dried each layer before adding a new layer. After it was dry I stamped the floral spray in black ink. It's very abstract! Now it's finished I do quite like it. What do you think??
I hope that you all have a good day,
Love and hugs to you all,
Sandra xxx
I love the card Not sure about the plant!
ReplyDeleteWe went to a Rural Care farm yesterday Adults with special needs work/volunteer there as well as being a working farm Oscar loved feeding the pigs and sheep They supply free range eggs meat and have orchards of apples and walnuts Most of the walnuts are “pinched” by the squirrels! We were so lucky with the weather Today is a different story!
Take care everyone xx
Hi everyone, another chilly rainy day.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty card, that stamp looks great, I some similar ones, but don’t have much success, they always look like a spidery mess.
Almost finished my card for this week, will send it through tomorrow.
Almost forgot I’m sorry to say I don’t really care for your new plant, I’m not much good with indoor plants, except orchids.
Hugs to all Lilian
Hi Sandra and all looking in.
ReplyDeleteWhat a coincidence! How lovely that you got such a bargain. I love them, they are really interesting. Like you say they look like beads threaded onto string. I hope your haircuts went ok xx
I had mine done today, thank goodness.Pop needs a trim but we don’t have to worry as the receptionist at his home is a hairdresser 1.5 days a week there. I hope you all sleep well. Take care . Love Sue xx
