Good Wednesday Morning Ladies,
Early start today as I have a Gp appointment this morning to discuss my on going heart issues, I want some actual answers not just more medication to paper over the cracks. Lets see what she has to say.
After this Lucy and I are going out for brunch and a bit of shopping.
I had a fun little craft session yesterday making this tag, inspired by Emilia Sieradzan. I used Worn Lipstick & Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide sprays as the base colour, I spritzed with water to add some extra interest, when it was dry-ish I used a stencil and some texture paste, now this did absorb some of the background colour, so I replaced the stencil (after it was dry) and added some white ink to enhance the embossing. A bit of stamping finishes the background.
For the 'pretty bits' I used some 49&Market From the Market die cuts, it's all very Spring themed and sitting in the garden at the weekend watching the birds gathering bits for their nests really inspired me, so when I saw this with the nest box, I added some cut up strands from gauze (for nest building 😉) behind the book and then added some flowers and a little bird on the front of the nest box. I chopped up the little phrase so it didn't dominate the tag. Some white splatters finished the tag.
I love this make, its fun and pretty 😍
I hope that you all have a great day,
Love & hugs to all of you,
Sandra xxx

ReplyDeleteLove your tag, it really looks like spring. I might have a go at a tag ,I haven’t done one for ages. YOU are a great inspiration to me, think I would have given up these past few months if it wasn’t for your example.
Hope you get some answers this morning and have a nice lunch.
I really like today’s reminder, still waiting for my cloud to pass.
Sonia have a lovely time with your grand children.
Enjoy the day all.
Your tag is beautiful I have never made a decorative tag Great tip of adding ink on top of the texture paste to “whiten” it again So another item to add to my list to try Another great reminder to
ReplyDeleteI hope you get answers today I do wonder if the results of your sleep study may help Unfortunately heart problems can only be treated with medication or surgery and most surgeries involve taking medication afterwards
I start a 24hour ECG tape today because my heart at times “thuds” especially at night
I agree with Lilian I don’t think I would craft as much without Sandra’s inspiration
Take care everyone xx
