Good Wednesday Morning Ladies,
Welcome to the first day of April, March absolutely flew by, April is a busy month in the garden, lots of sowing seeds and potting up and potting on to be done. It's an exciting month, seeing the garden starting to blossom and bloom. The birds are really active too, it'a so lovely watching them flitting about.
It's quite a coincidence that this is todays Reminder as I am waking up to another day on my own, both girls are off today but they have made plans to go Frisbee Golfing and taking a picnic lunch, I certainly wouldn't want them knowing that I dread being on my own, as I would never want them to feel bad, Paul us usually home on a Wednesday but he has a mid afternoon meeting so will be gone all day. I guess that means I have plenty of time to craft !!
The other thing that i am grateful for is that I can reach out and you lovely friends will be there to chatx I hope that you all feel that you aren't alone too ❤️
Today I am sharing a journal page I made using my Bew Tim Holtz Wheel Stencil, I blended Distress Oxide Mustard Seed, Twisted Citron, Broken China and Faded Jeans through the color wheel Stencil, I was following a Vicky P tutorial but she used sprays and I found them too messy, after spritzing with water and adding some splatters of the same colour inks I dried the piece.
This was before adding splats of ink, after it was dry I added some stamping and stencilling with Black Texture paste, which bought some drama and texture to the page. The finishing touches were too plain white butterflies and the little sentiment strip, oh and some white splatters!
I really love this stencil !!
I hope that you have an awesome start to April,
Love & hugs to all,
Sandra xxx
You definitely are not on your own we’re here You’ll struggle I know but you’ll be fine and if push comes to shove they’re on the end of a telephone call
ReplyDeleteYour card is beautiful I think I saw Paula P demonstrating this stencil to create your own colour wheel or something similar I must admit I keep looking at ones like this on A&C
I hope to play later today and I might even get a chance to try making a spinner card
Off to get nails done in a mo
Take care everyone xx
Hi everyone
ReplyDeleteI love your card today. The stencil is so versatile and works perfectly with the stamping and beautiful butterflies 😍
A lovely quote. You’re not alone my lovely, we’re always here for you too. I hope your day goes quickly once you start crafting and Paul and the girls will be home in no time 😘
Lilian, I hope you’re ok and have a better day today 🥰 xx
Have a lovely day everyone
Sending hugs to you all xx
Sorry to ask Sonia but did you mean that you used a piece of card and concertina that in-between the dome shaped pieces of card ?
DeleteHi Maria. Yes I did 😊 xx
DeleteHi everyone
ReplyDeleteFabulous journal page. Great shape for making a rainbow and everything is looking amazing together 👍
No one in this group will ever have to feel alone and like the others saying we are only a quick phone call/ facetime away. Probably crafting is what can make the time to go quickly and put some music on and sing along, which in my case sound like I'm strangling a cat 🤭
Was out quickly this morning but have felt for a few days like coming down with something and headaches but nothing yet, just very tired but it might be because going to bed at 2.45 last night or should I say this morning 🤗
Hope your day was good. Many hugs to you all xxx
Love your card and the insert, it is so thoughtful and reassuring, we all like to know that we are not alone. I love it.
ReplyDeleteHope your day was not too stressful - being on your own, remember that we are all always here for you.
Sending love and hugs to you all, Brenda xxx
Hi Sandra and all. Beautiful stencilled colours and with the pretty butterflies. Hope the day went quickly for you xx
ReplyDeleteLilian I hope you are not in as much pain now. It gets you down doesn’t it. I’m really struggling but there’s nothing you can do to help us there xx
Another failed blood test today. Have to be there for 8.50am tomorrow as it’s an emergency test so needs doing asap! Sleep well everyone. Take care. Love Sue xx
Hi, another dry day, can you believe it !
ReplyDeleteLove your journal page, stencilling is my new love at the moment.
Hope you all have good night and sleep well which is alluding me at the moment.
Today’s reminder is another full of meaning.
