I had the most wonderful Wednesday this week. It was rainy and overcast and the day before I had shovelled 2m of mulch on to our gardens. So I decided that Wednesday was cardmaking day. Best thing I actually felt a little creative. I packed the daughter off to school. Lit a scented candle put Foxtel (pay TV) on to music.....Easy listening and had Elvis crooning and other songs of that era playing. Yes, I was singing too and no one could complain. :-) Then I dug out some things I have wanted to put on to cards for a while now and made 6 cards over the day. This is one of them. Then to top the day off hubby came home and said let's go to the pub for tea. Brilliant.
I really enjoyed making this card all items from Blue Edge Crafts. Started with Pink Linen Textured card stock, white cardstock then a layer of the Past Spodia Combo paper. I stitched around the edges of the two layers. Then added this lovely Dancing Ballerina die cut shapes and finished with a 'something to celebrate' white sticker and a bit of bling.
Thats me for this week. Wishing you all a good weekend and see you Monday.
No major plans here as the rain seems to be hanging around. So more inside work.
This is so so pretty ,I love the pink paper and using the die cut makes card making a breeze.Have a great weekend.
