Good morning mon petit poulets. Hope that you are all doing fine.
Had an up and down few weeks but you just have to go with the flow sometimes.
I had a stall at a Craft Fair at the weekend and did very well so that I was a happy ducky. I have started making candles for my stall and they were popular. I was so tempted to make a joke about four candles but thought better of it.
Mr D is on leave this week so we have a few things planned, blood tests for me, MOT at doctors for him, along with the dentist (him)...............the excitement never ends!!!
We do also plan to go to the cinema and for a couple of lunches so its not all NHS related fun.
Now, today's card is a sample from John's Gerbera collection. I know its going to be a Marmite card as it is rather decorative. Its an 8x8.
Ingredients
White card
Blue card, 2 shades
JND Gerbera Panel die
JND Special Friend die
JND Scene Box die (for the aperture edges)
SB Lonely Hearts die
Pearlage and jelly tots
I was looking for something different to do with the scene box die and thought the ends would make a nice edge around an aperture. It was a bit tricksy but I think it looks quite effective.
Well, better shake a leg and get on with my to do list.
Thank you, as always for popping by and your kind comments.
Have a great week.

Ps.......I have kindly been invited back to Breedon to teach another workshop on Dec 14th......Please see poster on right hand side.
Morning Ang, oh this sample is brilliant, I love seeing what you make with the dies and stamps because they are always out of the box so to speak with you creating something different with them.
ReplyDeleteHope all goes well at the NHS establishments this week for you and Mr D.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Looks fab Ang, great design, I do love how you think outside the box!!!!!

ReplyDeleteWell done at the craft fair and congratulations at being asked back to do a workshop
ReplyDeleteI love the layout of your card but not sure on the blue It looks very bright on screen
Wow!! Your card is quite ornate!
ReplyDeleteBeautifully done!
I always say - if we did't have all of these doctors appointments, we wouldn't have a social life.

Glad things are working out well at the craft fayre and workshop. I thought the picture of your tote bags with the unicorn must have made sales straight away. Have a good week whatever you end up doing. Love from Jackie xx
ReplyDeleteWow amazing card Ang, beautifully designed. I'm psyching myself up to try your zig zag. Have a lovely week together, Kate x x
ReplyDeleteHello Ang,
ReplyDeleteLove the design of the card and it's certainly a pretty card.
Enjoy your days out this week, it's a shame that the cinema and lunches are going to spoil your never ending round of fun!
Some may say that Breedon are obviously gluttons for punishment, but I'd never even think that as I've heard you have a strong right hook lol.
Take care.
love Maureen x
Hello Ang, what a stunning card, sometimes you just need something "flamboyant" and this is it, love the design. Have a great week and enjoy your outings. Take care all. Bx
ReplyDeleteYou always manage to create something very different. Clever lady. Enjoy your time with John.

Hello Ang,
ReplyDeleteYour card is beautiful - you really do think outside the box!
Despite various appointments you’d rather not have had , I trust you have had a good week.
Good to know you are going back to Breedon! I’m sure they learned a lot and had fun too! Always good in my book.
Just ignore Maureen , if you can, I find it’s easier that way!
Love Myra xx
Wonderful card for a special friend. I bet you sold out at your booth very fast after seeing what you can do here.
ReplyDeleteHave some fun along with those necessary evils!

Love the colour on your super card Ang. Like others have said I wouldn't have thought to use the dis in this way. Mind you, this past year my mind has gone to sludge and can only do anything that's very basic and simple. Take care. Christine xx
