Congratulations Susie Sugar who was the third entrant, I will need you address to get your prize to you.

Fancypants

What set out to be a normal Sunday turned out to be a very big challenge, I have had ongoing back problems for over a year now and Friday afternoon was the start of more than usual back pain, constant pain releavers and back rubs, I was hoping that I would awake fit and well Sunday morning but that wasn't to be.

Not only did I awake to worse pain but also my back kept going into spasms I went through the pain barrier in tears and scrambled my way round making a cup of tea. Normally Chris makes me a cuppa every morning whilst I pull myself together but he was on a training course with the Brigade.

By 11:30am I was back in bed, my Daughter got in about 3pm and madeher first Sunday roast all by herself (she did marvelous) Chris got in around 4.30pm and gave me another back rub with some Voltarol which helped.

So it is a miracle that I have a card to show you at all, luckely this is one I coloured on Saturday. I stood to make the card then Chris did the photography for me as he did with the previous 2 cards (thank you Chris x).

Todays image is Fancypants by A Day for Daisies, coloured with Copic Makers and Prisma Pencils, the big scallop border was made with the Tonic Studios Border System (fabulous bit of kit)

James at the Carnival

Wedding card Round 2

Another test card, this time a little more to it.

Someone said thay wern't sure where leaves come into my thoughts for a wedding card so i'll try to explain my thoughts on it.

Leaves form part of most bouquets and supply the greenery, I could have choosen hearts but I figured that would not be unusual, the other thing that draws myself to leaves is that to me leaves and trees symbolise life. The other reason is purely design value if I'd chosen,swiss dots, damask, birds and swirls, or most other embossing folders the question would still apply.
