I found a funny image from Bugaboo digital stamps. Jodie has the funniest images.
I matted the PP ( flowers to remind Berys that she wants to garden more in her retirement) onto white and then the pearly blue base. The Stella image was printed onto white card and cut with a Spellbinders Label. Coloured with Copics and some distress ink. A very simple card, but I liked the sentiment...as we have a very busy work space and Berys is a VERY BUSY leader. I also used the PP to make a little gift box to hold a few chocolates
Looking forward to catching up with my team-mates after nearly 4 weeks off.
The last two days have been very busy... I've been quite social.... my girlfriend, Yvonne, had a birthday yesterday and we went out to a lovely restaurant for a girly lunch ( including a nice glass of wine) and then last evening Peter and I went to "The Last Night of the Proms" with the Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra . Any of my English readers will no doubt know what my evening was like... the first part of the night was beautiful classic music with a Mezzo- Soprano singer then the second part of full of fun.... "Land of Hope and Glory" "Rule Britannia" - lots of streamers and poppers.... a really fun evening. I was pleased I managed to cope with the standing beforehand as we had a Canapés and wine get together prior to the show. Mind you, I did have to have an hours nap earlier this afternoon.
Thanks for stopping by.... I hope you enjoy reading a little about my life and my love of card-making.
Cheers
Dawn
