Good morning everyone. Hope this finds you all well.
The thermal leggings and socks are definitely part of the Winter wardrobe here at the moment. As I mentioned last time, this is not public attire as I don't want to scare the neighbours, well, not quite as much as Flash.
Busy week here again at The Pond with shopping, meeting Davey for coffee before he jetted off again to chicago, washing and a visit to the NEC on Thursday.
I enjoyed the show and meeting up with a few friends for coffee and lunch but I didn't buy much at all.
It was quite busy but not nearly as many stall as in bygone days.
Still, it was nice to have a wander around and meet up with chums but I was shattered at the end of the day.
Thank you for your kind comments on my last card. I don't get inky very often but I do enjoy it when I do.
Now, on to today's card. Nesta became a great auntie in August and her niece had her baby shower a couple of months beforehand. I was asked to make a suitable card for the occasion.
I thought something simple but elegant (hopefully) was in order.
Ingredients
White and mint green card
SB Intertwined Spirals die
Memory Box Alphabet dies
Pearlage
Its an 8x8 card and was apparently well received. She knew it was going to be a boy but I still went with the mint.....just in case.
Well Sandy, what's this about moving North again? Stay in the warm. As Jan said last time, life's too short to be cold lol!!!
Stephanie, hope that you got on ok at the dentist. I'm back on Tuesday for the crown fitting (not a coronation you understand lol!!!).
Anyhoo, I'm scheduling this so better scoot. There have been a few bangs and whizzes tonight but The Girls don't seem to be bothered by it, thankfully.
Have a great Sunday.
TTFN

Morning Ang, what a stunning creation as a keepsake for a baby shower card, yes I like this very much, am I correct in thinking that the sentiment is individual letter dies, only I have never seen a die with all those words together, great idea.
ReplyDeleteYes we too have got the heating on but only when we need it, normally first thing in the morning when we have our showers and can dry them, and then perhaps in the early evening for an hour or so, it is not cold enough yet to have it on any more..... got to watch the pennies.
Good luck at the dentist this week.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Morning Ang,

Hi Ang this is a stunning card I love it. Funnily enough we were talking about Baby Shower cards today. We didn't make it to the NEC this time. There is just too much going on. Thank you for the coffee tips. Take care. Hugs Jackie

Beautiful card, Ang. It was good to see you on Thursday. I enjoyed the show but like you I didn't spend much at all - just some sentiment dies.

Lovely card. I heard that you saw Anne at the show. I didn’t need anything so didn’t go this time but glad you enjoyed it.

Hi Ang, catching up, absolutely beautifully designed card, lovely colours too, I'm sure it was well received, Kate x
ReplyDeleteI am sure she will cherish this card...probably will frame for the wall in the little one's room. A special card for a special occasion.
ReplyDeleteI hope your dentist appointment was uneventful. My dentist was on good behavior. He has twin boys and a toddler girl so he was anticipating what was in store for him after work. The kids were primed and ready.
Have a wonderful Wednesday, everyone.

A beautiful card Ang xx
