Just a Note USC #2




I missed the first challenge over at Uniko Studio Stamps whilst I was on holiday, but I have a card for the second one.





I used Dylusions Sprays to colour  white card, adding some dimension with 'bubble wrap'. Hand cut the flowers to position over a die cut sprig.

Challenge Entered : Uniko Studio # 2

I'm celebrating..........


Wow,  I can't believe this is post number 1000, it all started HERE back in 2009.  I can still remember how excited I was to read the first comment received.  Thanks Donna :). 

I'm celebrating with a brand new Blog design, what do you think? Marcia has once again designed this for me.....Thank you Marcia.

Anyway, today I thought I'd share a couple of cards made using the same set as my very first post:
Stampin Up - Upsy Daisy.

Thanks for dropping by and helping me celebrate, 





Kraft and white for this one with hessian cord.


For this one I stamped the image twice using first VersaColor Orchid the Memento Rhubarb Stalk inks  and stamping slightly off the original stamped image........it gives a nice shadow.

MONDAY MONDAY.........



Thank you all those who left lovely comments on our holiday snaps :)  I didn't want to bore you with too many.......we took loads, as always.

How quickly you get back into a routine...... Monday morning and the alarm sounds at 4am....yuk!  The boss is up having packed an overnight bag last night, a quick shower and a cup of tea before he hits the road.  His reward (he says) after an early start and the 3 hour drive to work is an egg and bacon roll on arrival :)
Though I don't often get up with him (I'd just get in his way not being a morning person:) ) I'm awake and get an early start on the Monday morning chores, even having time for a quick card before I head out for some shopping.

I played a little more with AnnaBelle Stamps new pink rubber set Butterfly Sunshine.  Reading all your lovely comments after the Blog Hop, it seems to be a favourite set of lots of you :)
I should confess I had this coloured butterfly cut and ready to go, so this was a very quick card.





A bright card to kick of a Monday morning..........Thanks for looking :)
