Pat Holiday & Anne New Stamp

Anne's New 'At the Alter Stamp


 The Train that took Pat & Pete through the mountains

The Breathtaking Scenery

The Deliscious Apple Strudel !!

Good Morning Ladies,

I love Anne's new 'At the Alter' Stamp, and I think that it works so perfectly with the Creative Expressions 
Lattice Window Striplet Die, as it looks just like a Church window.
Anne has stamped the image and embossed with Silver embossing powder & heat set, it looks as though she has then 'fussy cut' around the image leaving a tiny border. The card base has been made by die cutting the Lattice Window into a square of white card and then backing it with silver card, leaving abour 1/4 inch border around the edge of the white card.  Anne has then mounted the couple onto the card base and embellished with a pretty corner die and some pretty hearts.
This is the most perfect Wedding Card, thank you so much Anne for sharing your amazing card with us, I would love to know where you did eventually manage to get the stamp from? xxx

Pat has sent me a couple of photoraphs of her holiday in Germany to share with your all, these photos are of the Train journey that her and Pete went on, it took them on a tour of the Mountains and wow it looked amazing.  
But I have to say the most amazing photo is of that deliscious Apple Strudel, that pastry looks like it would just melt in the mouth. Good job you aren't going for two weeks Pat or you may have been carrying round a few extra pounds, we all know how much you like your puddings!
Thank for sharing your holiday snaps xxx

It will just be Sue and I today, I am sure we will manage to think of something to talk about though!

Have a great day ladies,
Love and Hugs
Sandra

  2. Good morning Ladies,
    Good to hear you are now settled in at Maringy Janet and all is well and even the sun is shining for you, enjoy! Thank you for the kind words about my card, it has taken me 3 attempts to buy it from eBay so third time lucky, it only came on about once a year as it is a Stampendous wooden mounted stamp which has been discontinued for a long time.
    Pat, great photos, they remind me of when we went to a little village called Vandans in Austria and that was nearly 50 years ago , look at the memories you are evoking lol! the apple strudel looks truly scrumptious I'm so happy you and Pete enjoyed your holiday.
    Sandra and Sue have fun crafting and having a good chat along with some goodies to keep you going.
    Walking day , the weather is a bit changeable so don't know what type of walk it will be, so must go and see what I can have in my picnic lunch.
    Love and hugs to all xoxo

  3. Good Morning Sandra and Friends, very foggy here this morning and a little chilly, hoping it will clear and be fine.
    Anne your wedding card is very beautiful, glad you managed to buy your stamp, I never have much luck on eBay, I'm too much of a skinflint !!!!!
    Pat your holiday pics are lovely, I'm with you on puds, they are my favourite part of a meal.
    Janet glad you have arrived safe and sound, and the weather is good.
    Sandra and Sue have a lovely crafty day together putting the world to rights.
    Going to my crafty friends tomorrow, so will try and get the challenge card done there, also need to make a set of notelets for a friend.
    Have a lovely day all, hugs on their way, plenty for all and a few to spare. Lilian

  4. Love lovely card ANNE although at first (bear in mind I look on here on an iPod) I thought they were headless (a bit day of the dead) After I'd zoomed in and seen it close up I saw the coat hangers! Silly me! I'm like LILLIAN and am never very successful on EBay
    PAT's photos look beautiful That pudding - yum!
    Work and an eye test today but looking forward to catching up on John Lockwood's shows later

  7. Good morning Sandra and everyone in the cafe,
    Anne I love your wedding card it really is stunning. I'm sure now you have this stamp it's not one you going to part with. The church window looks brilliant love her you've given it the stain glass treatment.

    Sandra and Sue have a great day, I'm sure you'll be both able to put the world to right! And maybe do a little crafting too. XX

    Janet enjoy your time in Marigny, and hope after the shopping you will be able to take things easy after that very long journey. LOL

    Val pleased you enjoyed your day yesterday, and well done on winning the €35. That really made it worthwhile going didn't it.

    We are going out to lunch today, and doing a little shopping but nothing very exciting, then it depending on the weather will I come back to do some more gardening or crafting.

    Hope you all have a good day, love and hugs Brenda XXX

    2. Hello Lynda, No gardening done unfortunately, realised how many strawberrys were ready to pick. So that's what I did, then made them into jam. (9 jars full) Grandsons will be delighted, I will keep a couple for us. Haven't made a CC card yet. Have you? Might get mine done on Friday - fingers crossed. xx

    1. Hi Lynda,
      Your thunderstorm has now arrived in SW London and it is pouring down. Just had an incident outside our house. Our road is a cut through between A23 and another busy local road. Two cars going in opposite direction, both refusing to give way. Sounding their horns and shouting. When I learned to drive l was taught to read the road, (anticipate what the other driver might do) it is so much easier if you give way. The weather really does bring out the worst in people.
      We are never short of entertainment living in this area!!!
