So it was all stop yesterday so I could use this gorgeous punch around the page punches, isn't it gorgeous. It's called Cherish and I ordered it from Simon Says Stamps and when it arrived it had to be used straight away. Can you image a 12 inch layout using it, they will be in my tote bag on Saturday when I go to MJ All day crop.
The top secret parcel, well all I can say its a good job a brought a bulk lot of easi-mount at Ally Pally.
May be not the best card in the world but I didn't want to hide punched mat, the papers are My Minds Eye Fine and Dandy. The swirls are EK Sucess punch, leaves Leone-em punch, some flowers, a bit of lace and a sentiment, job done. The image is one of Mo Manning's but this one is actually a Stampavie stamp.
I didn't really have a challenge in mind when making this card but I think there enough embellishments to be able to enter in A Spoonful of Sugar this week.
I had a wonderful e-mail asking me to be on one of my favourite challenges DT, it was one of the hardest things I had to do to say no. I promised my other half not to take on any more DT, on this rare occasion he is probably right, still it was really really hard to do.
Then I found out my Dad is quite poorly he looks after Mum really well but though its a dreadful thing to say its probably a good job she is still in hospital.
No time for card making today.
Очень мило!

Debby - what a fab card and I agree - I just love the punch! You've just reminded me, I was going to make my mother and father-in-law a card using one of these Mo Manning images for their Golden Wedding a couple of weeks ago - but I forgot! (They did get a card, I didn't mean I forgot to make a card lol!)
ReplyDeleteHope your Dad and Mum both get better soon - I worry as much about mine and my husband's parents as I do about our children at the moment!
Love, Andrea xx

ReplyDeleteI can appreciate it must have been very difficult to decline one of your fav DT's but sometimes the reason why appears to us a bit later. I hope you Dad makes a good recovery Debby.
