Was a bit busy yesterday helping our 17yo son hand out his resumes. Yes, the fun task of job hunting. If anyone in the Cairns area is looking for a keen, Year 12 school leaver please email me. Keen to do most types of work except for Sales and Front Counter. Thanks.
Okay, back to crafting. I received a lovely Christmas card from Mandy at Craftmad and it was in the style of a buckle card (tutorial here at Craftmad). I haven't done one in ages. So dug out papers etc and created two.
I started with Grey Linen Textured Card for the base. The front left I have added a silver metallic paper and this wonderful Lily 3D Paper Tole. To the right inside section of the card I have added matching purple glitter paper. I then finished the buckle off with a silver 'Best Wishes' sticker and added three purple bling.
The second card I have used another 3D Lily Paper Tole from the same sheet as above.
Then reveresed where I added the background papers too.
I received my prize from Amy at Flashback Friday Challenge. (Sponsor:- Mary Dawn of a . muse)
How exciting....I so receiving parcels in the mail. Thanks so much Amy, I can't wait to have a play with these new stamps.
Everyone be sure to check out Flashback Friday on 6th January when the new challenge will be posted. I will be there.
Well thats it for me today. Hope you have a good one. I am waiting to see what the weather is doing to see what I am doing.
