Good Sunday Morning Ladies,
Rain rain go away!!! We have it forecast all day today 97% chance too, so pretty much guaranteed, luckily, like Rick, Paul got all the lawns mowed, it takes a couple of hours but he got it finished and then quickly jet washed the red Berries that Soph had driven through they have stained the front doors of her car (which is white) it actually looks like she has hit something and its blood, it came off quite easily thankfully. So he has totally earned a lazy day today, although being lazy doesn't come easily to Paul!! I didn't get out in the garden but I still had a productive day, I made two cards and a journal page, I haven't made a card for a couple of weeks, I had a slightly larger card base than usual (only by an 1/8 inch) but I had to cut the flipping card base 3 times!!! I got there in the end though! 🤣😂
I hope the weather doesn’t spoil your plans, Sonia have a safe journey to Dorset and Gina have a safe journey to Italy xx

Wow Karen you have had a very busy week in your craft room, your makes are all completely different too.
I love your Mixed Media Tag, your home made texture paste works so well, a definite success and a good £10 saved!
That embossing folder on your second card is lovely, I couldn't find it anywhere online! The way you have highlighted the detail is brilliant.
Your wreath card is amazing, using the wreath as a frame is inspirational, you certainly have given me some ideas. That Daisy B stag is so beautiful, so much detail which you have coloured perfectly.
Thank you so much for 3 incredible projects my lovely XXX

Hi, here is my card for this week,
I used stencil, leaves, and die cuts.
It’s a new stencil but I can’t remember where I bought it from.
I’ve had the edging die’s for years, no idea where it came from, I must remember to make a note of the name and where I bought it from.
Lilian I love your card, that piece of inked background is so beautiful, I also adore that stencil, its so pretty, the two work so well together, I did think the border die was a Sue Wilson die, but I'm not sure, its lovely, gives a really delicate finish.
Thank you so much for creating a beautiful card for this weeks challenge XXX

Categories: Stencil/ Die cuts/ Christmas
I love all of your inking Maria, that Embossing folder is gorgeous and you have highlighted those little details beautifully.
Thank you so much for creating a card for the challenge my lovely, I hope that you are starting to feel better XXX

Here is my card for this week, I was inspired from a card on Pinterest. It took ages to position the leaves etc. but I’m quite pleased with it now. You can’t see the sheen on the blue background card and it is greyer in the photo.
I used categories: Sparkle/Shine / Die cut/ Christmas
It's lovely to see it finished, it really is a 'labour of love', You must have spent a good 2 hours + die cutting those little pieces while you were here. It really was worth it though, it looks really lovely. Only another card maker would know how much work went into it though!
Thank you so much for supporting the challenge, it's lovely to be sharing your card in the line up XXX
