Some Beautiful Cards from Michele



Good Morning Ladies,

Well yesterday was both a beautiful day weather wise and a very relaxed day, I just needed to have a day with no pre-set agenda, I knew my body was struggling due to the pain I was in and the fact that I was having more episodes of AF than usual, so I made myself just sit and watch some craft YouTube videos, do some paper work (bills and boring stuff).  The only trouble with that is that you go online and then start to browse and then end up with a few bits in your basket, well you know how it goes ladies!!  I didn't actually buy anything though.

Oh I will say that Danielle has been approached to make some projects with some dies from a company in China (I believe).  The up side is that she was given a 'Fan code' so that we can get 15% off the already really inexpensive dies & stamps.  I will share a couple of her samples with the code tomorrow.  I think that it does Danielle good as well when we use her code as it shows them how many people have been inspired by her Projects and that determines whether they work with her again.  But you already know that Danielle's samples are amazing.

Onto today's gorgeous cards, which were all made by our Michele, I have to say that they are a little different for you Michele, you don't usually go for the really floral patterned papers, I absolutely love the ones you have used, particularly that Blue and pink floral paper.
Ladies as you have probably guessed Michele made these cards using papers that were FREE to download.  You have chosen perfectly matched card to coordinate with your papers Michele, the matting and layering makes those papers 'pop' even more.
Your layouts are great too, I really like the Vertical sentiment and how you have placed the flowers around it.
Thank you so much Michele for 3 absolutely stunning cards, I think we would all like to know where you downloaded those papers from! xxx

We decided to have a bit of a relaxing treat last night, it was a bit last minute, we have been so busy this past few weeks that the evenings just disappear, it seems like we have been having dinner, clearing away and its bedtime.  So we decided to go to the Cinema, I had a look and our cinema must have a special deal on Tuesdays as the tickets to see Captain Marvel were only £5 each, instead of about £12, so I booked tickets for Paul, myself and the girls (matt is not interested in those kind of films).  So I will let you know what we thought about it tomorrow.

Have a lovely day my lovelies,

Love and Hugs to all of you,

Sandra

  1. Morning w

    Sandra-your day sounds like it was just what you needed after a hectic week. Hope you all enjoyed the film.
    It will be interesting to see Danielle’s samples & what Dies she was sent to use.

    My cards were made using free downloads from the latest issue of Making Cards (& Papercraft) Nagy. I think if you register/sign up then you can access the free digital downloads. You also get an email each month with different downloads-this month it’s cute Pandas.
    It was the first time in ages I’d felt like actually creating cards but that’s all I made!

  2. They are lovely cards Michele I am terrible at downloading stuff I always think I’ll remember what I’ve named it and where I’ve filed it but never do! I really ought to find some time and “clean” my laptop!
    Congratulations DANIELLE I can’t wait to see what you receive and make
    You deserve to have a relaxing day MICHELE after your hectic few weeks And isn’t it lovely to do things on the spur of the moment
    My mojo was a bit tired yesterday BUT I had a play on ScanNCut Canvas and really enjoyed it because it seemed to work! I hope to make what I designed later If it works I’ll send a photo

  3. Good morning Sandra & ladies
    Lovely sunshine this morning but very chilly.
    MICHELE your cards are lovely & the paper's are very pretty. I tried to download some of the free paper's but when I pushed on the download it wouldn't go I tried a few times with no joy.
    SANDRA glad you had a relaxing day & you enjoy the film.
    DANNII congratulations looking forward to seeing what you make with the dies/stamps you get.
    It was lovely seeing your face yesterday on your YouTube instead of just your hands 💅💅xx
    I'm going to try CC today. If my mojo plays nice.
    Sending Hug's for everyone
    Love Lynda xx

  4. Hi everyone.
    Lovely cards and I like the lay out you have done Michele. Take care.
    Congrats Danielle, looking forward to see what you make. Love the big bag you made.
    Woke to a lovely sunny morning but now the clouds have hidden it and I doubt it will come out again today but the washing is on the line once again so hoping it will be dry before the evening.
    Lilian- sorry you struggling and you aren't able to see the doctor earlier. Take care and hopefully R is around to help you some.
    Val- when you go away I hope you have a nice trip and fun with your friend. Wishing your pain away.
    Sandra- glad you could take it a bit easier and hope you all liked the film. Son like them so I am watching them with him at times.
    Lynda- hope your mojo is around to make some cards. I always like your mixed media ones. Take care and hugs for you and Terry.
    Karen - thought of you when a old friend of mine showed her knitted dolls on facebook . Will see if I can share them with you. Hope the sleep over with Oscar was fun and cuddly.
    Cheryl- love to see your new front garden when it's finished. Sound like a lot of work. Take care, hugs.
    Haven't made any cards for it seem like forever but going now to the kitchen to see what I got and look on the piece of paper I written down the tic,tac toe for this week so fingers crossed.
    Many hugs to you all, Maria xx
