Good Saturday Morning Ladies,
Janet I have everything crossed that you have a straightforward journey, I hope you don't have to endure the chaos that the first weekend of the school holidays bought to dover last year, pack plenty of food & drinks just in case, last year people were waiting for 12+ hours, all down to poor preparation of course!
Packing & tip run here today, we are popping over to Becca's new house later on as they have been moving in over tbe passed few days, we are having lunch out and then she is coming to see our new house.
What do you all have planned?
Now I know you are probably all sick of me showing my flowers to you but I thought that the 'Zinnias' would be great inspiration for colouring flowers, they look almost 'distressed' to me, in that the colours aren't beautifully symmetrical or equally spread. Also colour combinations, I would never have mixed purple with orange as I didn't think if the colours worked, but as you can see above those colours absolutely do work together! So we can all learn from nature. The roses I just wanted to share as they are a cutting from a rose my Dad planted for my mum many years ago. 😍
Now lets look at this month's Diecutting Essentials Magazine....
Diecutting Essentials Magazine
Issue 105
This months issue is very sea themed, the free die is great with the lighthouse and waves breaking all around it. The little stamp set is bonus too.
And finally we have 'Faux Laser Cutting ', so you can use up all of your intricate die cuts to fill a frame and give the look of a fancy panel die. Perfect to use over some of your stash of backgrounds.
So all in all some fun techniques in this issue and the free gifts are good too.

I hope that you all have a lovely weekend
Love and hugs to all of you,
Sandra xxxxxx

Great magazine review, thank you for sharing.
A great challenge for the next couple of weeks, I’m pretty sure I’ve got plenty of backgrounds that need making into cards 😉

Hello Sandra and everyone,
ReplyDeleteNature doesn’t do coordinating it happily uses colours that clash and yet they always make a beautiful show. Love all of your beautiful floral displays.
Thank you for the magazine review, lots of great articles and inspiration.
Great treat to go and see Becca’s new house and she in turn gets to see yours sounds like an interesting day all round.
Janet hope your journey is going well xx
Take care everyone and sleep well. Goodnight.
Love Brenda xx
