Wisteria Wonder....

This lovely card we made at our Coffee and Card morning with the lovely Jill Lackford...   usually the cards we make are 6 x 4 but I made mine into a 5" x 7"....

It's so hot again so making the most of my craft room for a couple of hours before it gets too unbearable...

Take care, keep hydrated and keep cool..

Cup of Tea....

A simple DL card using a couple of stamps and die cuts from the SU stamp set Cup of Tea....I have boxes of DSP that I  also need to use up.... the backing papers are some of these along with a lacy die cut from Cheery Lynn...also used some snippets of brown card... 

Its a beautiful day here again...have a good weekend whatever you are doing

'Hand Penned' Birthday....

It's so nice to have the cooler weather...its been so hot... there was no way I could sit in my craftroom as it faces South...anyway we shouldn't complain the garden's are in great need of any rain so any is very welcome.

Back to my card....found some unused bits in my 'bit box' including and image from the SU set Hand Penned and I had enough other 'bits' to make up a card...

Hope you all have a great weekend...I don't envy those stuck at Dover....it's 'ourgate' for us through the summer holiday's...

'Thinking of you'.....

It's been a while since I last posted.....My craftroom faces South and it is  really is too hot to craft but have been playing with some new stamps and dies....S.U. Horizon and Ocean Sea front.    It's been a very frustrating day and lots of cards have gone in the bin....was going to give up and call it a day..... 

No body likes waste so I pulled a card from the bin and this is what I came up with....   Butterflies cover a multitude of sins on a card but couldn't use one of this card hence the little cats.....  I do like playing with inks but sometimes ink just appears where you don't want it...  Time for a cup of tea I think....     Hope you are all taking care in this heat... 

 

thanks for popping by..

Anniversary Fun....

Just loved this stamp from Crafty Individuals called 'Waiting for their next Adventure'...I do like to make fun anniversary cards and thought this stamp was ideal.

I've used SU Horizon DSP paper, stamped the trees, birds and die cut the grass from SU On the Horizon stamp set.

Its very muggy today and they do threaten thunderstorms....we do need something just to clear the air.

Thanks for stopping by

Noof & friends...

Monday I had a play with some of my Lavinia stamps...Noof, Tilly & Tango.

Noof is quite a large stamp and I ended up putting him on a 7 x 7 card.....

The background is one of Lavinia pre printed ones.... I coloured Noof with pencils..   I just love the expression on Noof's face and he looks like he's enjoying being stroked by Tilly & Tango...

Time to have a tidy up my desk...I just hate working in a small confined space...

Have a good day whatever you are up to

Cheese & wine....

Hope you are all enjoying the bank holiday weekend...we've lots going off in our village....

We've also got a Wine Circle club in the village and any cards I make with wine on sells very quickly when I do my craft fair.... This image I found in my image box and it actually a napkin...mounted onto card covered and  with modge podge....you get a lovely textures using Napkins on anything...glass, wood pottery etc....you just need to strip away the layers and just use the top layer.

Thought you might like to see what our Parish council have done on our small village  green to celebrate the 70th Jubilee.....

This is a little place where we can sit and chat 

Well done East Coker..

Lots going off  on our Recreation ground today, tomorrow and Sunday..... fingers crossed the Sunday picnic can go ahead....

thanks for passing by......Anne
