Good morning Pondlings. Hope that you are all well and not in shock at the drop in temperature.
Its been brass oojits here and there has been mention of heating under muttered breath by Mr D but I just give him my "Not until November, put another jumper on" look.
The Girls have now got an old duvet for a bed in the kitchen. Its about 12 tog all folded up so it stands about 8 inches high and they love it. They also have their fleece bed in the living room and a big old cushion in the craft room so they officially have more beds than we do lol!!!
Now, as some of you may know, it was Mr Lockwood's birthday yesterday and this was the card I sent to him. It was supposed to be hand delivered on Friday but he had a crafting emergency so we couldn't meet up.......hoping for a chance today.
Of course, it had to include stags so there are 4 on this.
Ingredients
White card
Silver mirror card
Dovecraft stag die
Anna Griffin Flourish Emblem die
Memory Box alphabet dies
Dovecraft chipboard stag (coloured with silver Krylon pen)
2 silver stag pins
Go Press silver foil
Silver satin ribbon
This was my very first time using my Go Press foiling machine and I am very impressed,
I used it on the stag in the centre and the Anna Griffin die for the top layer.
Its very easy to use and I love the results.
Hopefully Mr L likes it (haven't heard one way or the other yet lol!!!
Karen, the eclipse cards are made from one sheet of card and what you cut out is raised up by using either foam or several die cuts of the same shape stuck on top of each other, I prefer to use card rather than foam as I find it easier to glue card on card on card.
I did take some pics of the process on a card I made so I will pop them on the blog next time so you can see what I mean.
Off to London tomorrow with Mr D to meet up with his brother and other half. Did ring to book a table but as the guy asked me to spell my name 5 times, thought my surname was my first name, had to give him the email address 3 times and my phone number twice, I'm not convinced that we are booked...........may well end up having a Maccy D lol!!!
Thank you for your comments on my last card and about my eyes. I have a feeling that Flash has burned certain images on my retinas lol!!!
Mrs Flash has still not been seen since Binbaggate................................
