Please join me in wishing Our Lovely Brenda the Very Happiest of Birthdays 😘 I hope that you have a whole weekend of Celebrating with your lovely family ❤️
Lilian
Lilian sent me a photograph of her stunning Christmas Cactus, I don't think I have ever seen that many flowers on one plant, such a beautiful colour too, keep doing what you are doing Lilian it definitely loves it. That's an amazing display for its first show of flowers.
Thank you so much for sharing it with us XXX
Maria
Maria has kindly shared her NEC shopping haul with us, you got some lovely things Maria, those little Dewdrop inks are the perfect shape for inking up your stamps, having that pointy end is great for inking tiny elements like leaves etc, I believe they have reinkers in same colours too.
Those flower stamps are beautiful, are the stamps (top right) stamps for adding crystal art drills to? What a grest idea. All you need now is the inspiration and enthusiasm to use them ! 🤣 Did you take lots of photos?
Thank you so much for sharing your shopping with us XXX
Lindys Gang
Magical Shakers
I treated myself to some Lindys Gang Magical Shakers......
And I love them !!!
The colours are lovely and vibrant, let me show you ......
The first three of the 5 colours 'Penny for your thoughts ', Wisteria Hysteria & Twig it out' are lovely, that beautiful peachy pink would look beautiful painted onto flowers. The blues & purples of Wisteria Hysteria has some beautiful colours and so much shimmer. Twig it out is just as described with yellows, orange & browns with gold shimmer.
The Lazing in the Laurels' is my favourite, the shade of green is spot on, perfect for leaves and stems. Last but not least is Hello Buttercup' how perfect for Spring, you can actually see the gorgeous shimmer.
Just a quick background made with just three of the colours.
The shaker top is the best Mica powder pot I have seen, the powder doesn't just fall out, you have to shake them and it gives a perfect distribution.
They aren't the cheapest Mica powders at around £25 for 5 pots but they will go a long way, I think they are definitely worth the cost.
Have any of you tried them?
I hope that you all have a great day,
Love and hugs to all,
Sandra xxx
Hi everyone
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to our lovely Brenda. Have a wonderful day with the family 🍰☕❤️ xx
Beautiful flowers Lilian, I have one similar but think OH has given it a bit too much water 😞
A tidy craft room is not a craft room ☺️ as long you have a space to work on its fine 😉
Haven't seen these shakers before but they look nice and a beautiful shimmer to them.
Yes the stamps are for my spare drills to use up. I have thousands of drills and as you can see, they are popping up little bit everywhere 🤭
Just having a lazy day with finishing off a crystal work while OH is watching the football. Have a lovely day everyone. I'm sure our Karen enjoys her cruise as long you are feeling alright 🤞
Hugs to you all, Maria xxx
💐🎂🥳HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRENDA🥳🎂💐 I hope you get spoiled rotten by your wonderful family today as you most definitely deserve to be xxx🥰
ReplyDeleteHi Sandra and all looking in. Lovely cards over the last few days. I still don’t know where the days go! The mica powders have a lovely depth of colour don’t they. They will last for ages as the shaker works well so not too expensive. I think I always think smaller items always seem more expensive than a big item ie: little pots of mica compared to a big bottle of distress ink spray. Silly of me I know 🤭🤣
ReplyDeleteI really felt for you with your spillage. It’s hard to know where to start the clean up isn’t it. By the way I still have some blue alcohol ink stained nails 🤭 xx
Karen, glad to hear you have some lovely warm sunshine. I wish we were there with you though. Enjoy yourselves xx
Lilian, your Christmas cactus is beautiful. It obviously loves whatever you do to it. This time of year is hard isn’t it when it is grey so much if the day. I feel for you xx
I have an old Cactus that is the same colour and it is in flower for much of the year. I had to repot it this year and it hasn’t got a single bud on it at the moment although the leaves look healthy so 🤞🏻 it will be back to normal next year as it was one of my Grans who died nearly 30 years ago.
We are going out for a walk, well I’m going to practice steering my new toy, my powerchair that has been named Crash by the family, the idea being that I won’t ever crash it! 😂
Have a good day everyone. Take care. Love Sue xx
Hello all, sunny this morning, but huge showers.
ReplyDeleteLove that saying, I go intending to tidy up, but just get distracted.
The little shaker pots are great will probably get some.
Brenda hope you had a lovely birthday, with your family.
Goodnight all, Lilian.
Hi everyone
ReplyDeleteA very Happy Birthday Brenda, I hope you have had a lovely day xx
Love the quote! I can honestly say my craft room has been kept clean, but unfortunately it’s due to the fact I’ve not been in there much 😕
A beautiful Christmas cactus Lilian 😊
Great shopping Maria, will look forward to seeing what you create.
Love the magical shakers. I have some of their sprays and they are gorgeous too.
Spent the day in Dorset, it was lovely seeing them. Teddy and Scarlett are growing fast 🥹
Sending hugs to you all xx
