Good Morning Ladies,
Please join me in wishing our lovely Karen a Very Happy Birthday, I hope you have an amazing day Karen followed by a year of love and laughter xxxxxx
I had a fun afternoon playing with Alcohol Inks yesterday, I only have a few colours, enough to make a right mess I have to say, it is so much fun though, you can't get the same look twice, the inks almost look like they are alive as you watch them mixing and swirling together on your mat, I just wait until I like the look of the ink mixture and then place my glossy paper down on to the ink, if when you lift the paper there are spots that aren't covered you can put a few drops of the same coloured ink on your blending tool and dap around your paper.
I think that this piece looks like a view of the earth from an aeroplane!
All I did to make the card was die cut a frame with Sue Wilson Double Pierced Rectangles and laid it over my inked piece, I then took a Tonic sentiment (that I have had for years and not used) die cut it twice and layered them together, I placed that into the centre of my inked panel.
I matted this onto another Rectangle die cut and then onto a card base made with Call me Clover Card.
I think that this makes a great 'Man' Card, do you?
I can't wait to see your Man cards, ladies.
I think Pat is coming over today, so some Groovi fun is on the cards I hope!
I hope that you all have a lovely day,
Love and hugs to all,
Sandra

Hi Janet
DeleteGood to hear you had a good journey home from your little bit of paradise. Just the tricky bit of putting everything that you took back where it belongs.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY KAREN !! wishing you a good day.
ReplyDeleteand good morning ladies from a frosty MK, don't think my pot plants have got the message tho for they still flowering for full Lol
Super card Sandra. That background is amazing and I love,love the colours. Also the big font on the HB is great for you don't need anything else. Have a nice day with our Pat.
Doing our ritual trip in to town this morning. Don't really want to see the scales but will enjoy the breakfast after and fruit shopping from the market. Lol
Have a nice day everyone and I'm looking forward to meet up later for a slice. Big hugs, Maria xx
Hi Maria
DeleteWe had a hard frost Sunday night. I met the gritting machines on the M40 coming home from Colchester. I though why on Earth are the gritting machines out it can’t be hard frosts already surely.
Happy Birthday Karen. I hope you have a wonderful day.
ReplyDeleteGreat card Sandra. Must check with you as I thought you’d decided we’d meet up on Wed.
Gentle hugs to all who need one today.

Hello Sandra and ladies,
ReplyDeleteHAPPY BIRTHDAY KAREN enjoy your special day and the rest of this birthday year, hope all your wishes and dreams come true.xxx
Sandra love love love your card, the alcohol background is gorgeous, it works so well and is perfect for a man card.
Janet pleased you got home safe and sound, don’t envy you putting everything back in it’s place, it always (well for me) takes so much longer to do this chore - possibly because I get sidetracked - Attention span comes to mind!!!
Have a great day everyone, love Brenda xxx
Good evening ladies
