Gosh I'm shattered not only did we make The Craft Barn, checked out the demos had a pub lunch but we also made it to The Glitter Pot and managed to get to Crafts U Love with 20 minutes to spare before they closed.
So to my card today is a Lily Of the Valley image (LOTV) and some more First Edition cardstock called Daydream I think. I've followed the sketch on Sweet Sketch Wednesday I've kept it fairy simple cos time is flying at the moment. The swirls are a EK success punch and the sentiment is computer generated. The daisies are a Woodware punch and the corners Quickutz so I reckon I can enter it in the Spoonful of Sugar Challenge for flowers.
So a big wave to Chris Dark who was busy colouring in the gorjuss girls and to Jenny Mayes surrounded by crafters one day we'll get to have a proper chat.
Francoise Read was using sakura pens with peel offs and they were amazing, peel offs get a real bad rep at the moment but Francoise was using black peel offs and really they looked like they were stamped. Also she has blog and is regularly posting so check it out here.
Taking it really easy today to recover and maybe get to play with my new goodies.
Morning Debby. Love this card. Gosh you had a busy day yesterday..feel tired just reading about it...Glad you enjoyed it..I love shopping at both The Glitterpot and The Craft Barn, sadly not in person..but they both have fantastic service. Hope you have a good day today with all your new goodies. S xx
