I simply love these dogs, something quite mystic about them. As I did a clean and simple card yesterday I thought I would keep the same theme but I think this one is quite striking.
I used the new Flex Markers by Letraset keeping the colour tones cool I used the watermelon shade on the background and also brought this to the front of the card too by matching the ribbon. I cut the shapes with the quickutz cookie die and the Husky is actually behind the die-cut card and not layered up. you can see it when it is full size.
I’m hoping that I got this right. I know the lady of the house goes for a clean and simple card when it comes to giving card so I’m betting on her liking the CAS style.
I used the Cuttlebug to emboss the leaves onto the base card, it is a Sizzix embossing folder from the fall set, I scored the bottom part of the card using my ScorPal.
The heart is an unmounted stamp from Impression Obsession. inked in green then gold thread wrapped around and a pearl added to the center and the scalloped heart was done with a spellbinder heart die. A pretty satin ribbon tied into a bow finished the card.
What a wonderful wonderful time we have had, it’s fabulous to leave the hustle and bustle of everyday life and spend some time with good company, good food and good entertainment and that is just what we did this weekend.
We booked up for Castle Howards Proms in the Park, we have been before and it must be around 10 years ago and it is as good now as what is was on our first experience.
This was our bed for the night
And this was just after we got settled for the evening.
Here is a little taster in a video, actually it is in two parts, the first is everyone arriving and the second is a sample of the entertainment.
Getting swept away in the moment
Fabulous sight
Even the wildlife came to listen
Starting to get dark
and in the moonlight
and the Castle
Hope you enjoyed it as much as we did.
