Howdy folks, hope that you are all well.
Things have, as always, been busy at The Pond. I have been busy with more samples for Mr L and am thrilled to say that some samples are featuring in the magazine John has on Hochanda tomorrow................and one is on the front cover 😲. So chuffed.
I also had to supply a photo for the magazine so that's blown my cover in the Duck Protection Program.
Things have also gotten a bit busier with the feet too. A few weeks ago, I had some leaflets printed and gave them to a company to deliver in the 2 areas where I rent clinic space.
Despite the leaflets having the individual clinic addresses on, my packing them in separate boxes, labelled with the areas and also a map, they still managed to mix them up and delivered in the opposing areas, which are at opposite sides of the city.
Consequently, I did not get that many calls from these.
To say I was not a happy ducky when it came to light, would be an understatement of epic proportions.
Needless to say, they have had them re-printed and re-delivered at their expense and the phone has been ringing and a dinging.
Hopefully, this is the start of things to come.
Now, to get back to the matter in hand, its time for another challenge at MAWTT and this month's challenge, chosen by my lovely mate Nursey Harrop, is......................

Our Nursey loves a good sentiment or quotation and often offers her own words of wisdom. so she wanted the focus to be on that.
This was a card made for a friend of a friend who likes Art Deco.
Ingredients
Silver mirror card
Black card
Papermania Roaring Twenties Art Deco paper
Embossalicious Art Deco Frame 8x8 embossing folder
JND Snowflower Frame cut and emboss folder
JND sentiment
Cosmic Shimmer Midnight Sparkle Texture Paste
Apologies for the glare from the mirror card. It is notoriously difficult to photograph.
I used the sparkle paste to paper grout into the embossed frame around the centre.
Hope that you can pop over to MAWTT and even join in with any of your creations.
That's me for now but will be back soon.
Happy Sunday!
TTFN

Gorgeous card, Ang. John took great delight in showing your photo, didn't he. What an honour to have your card on the front cover of the magazine. I haven't bought mine yet but will be looking out for it.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fiasco with the leaflets - glad the second batch resulted in a good response.

Hi Ang
ReplyDeleteLove your challenge piece. Glad things are going smoothly now and you are building up a client base. As I’ve been in NZ with my family for the last three weeks , I’ve not caught up with John’s magazine but will now ask Anne when I see her later. I’m still awaiting delivery of my order of John’s new dies as I asked for a hold to be put on it while I was away. Had a wonderful time, especially doing loads of crafting with my grandchildren.
