Good Friday Morning Ladies,
This lovely weather certainly brings joy to the day, although it was chilly in the shade.
Soph was excited for a day off in the sunshine 🌞 so to celebrate she took me to Bourton for an icecream by the river, which was lovely x
Today's reminder is something I actually felt on Wednesday, I wasn't feeling great after a rubbish night and BP issues, I sat at my desk and just couldn't summon the energy or enthusiasm to create anything, I walked away and went into the garden, then came in sat down and created yesterday's card! So I felt really proud that I created something, a bit daft but it was an achievement!
Today's journal page I made yesterday using Arden Creative die cuts.
I used Stamperia paints and used an old loyalty card to add the paint rather thatln a brush for a change, after the base colours were dry I drybrushed some white paint over the orange. Then took my arden stamp set and added some background stamping, then finally I added some stencilling.
I then picked out some of the lovely Arden ephemera stamped tickets and created some clusters, then onto the focal piece, starting with window frame, then the leaves, gauze and sentiment tags, the butterfly finished the page with some splatters!
I hope that you all have a lovely Friday,
Love & hugs to all,
Sandra xxx
