Nothing Finer

Sitting in hotel with my feet up on the bed with my favourite tipple full bodied tea with a threat of milk.
I will be on Create and Craft tomorrow at 11am and 2pm I created a new card pack and I know you are going to love them amongst lots of other goodies.

Pinks and Browns

You know when you have a colour layout in your head but you never can quite find the shade you are looking for? well this happened to me months ago so I laid the image to one side and every now and again i would pick it up and try to match it again and end up laying it right back down and using another image.

I picked up a paper pack at Harrogate on the The Hobby House stand and I knew instantly that it would be perfect for this image.

I used pearls from Mei Flower to accent the card, their pearls are second to none and the range is amazing as well as their prices. the flowers are made from the brown paper and the larger one with my Tonic Studios pinking shears.

I used one of the spellbinders frame dies to cut out the image and finished with a pretty bow.

Wonderful Day–Fixer Boy

We (Mam and I) had a wonderful day at Harrogate at the Papercraft Extravaganza, we set out around 10am and got there around 11.30, a little browse around then had a sandwich and a cup of tea, saw some welcome faces and old friends, big shout out to Jacqui Dennis love that girl got a cuddle and a long awaited chat.

We were greeted at the door with someone calling my mam famous for being on my blog yesterday, that made her day so thank you to the kind lady who recognised us.

I made a card when I got home using Fixer Boy from Mo’s Digital Pencil

I used a pre shaped card from Craftwork Cards and added some pearls from Mei Flower as you can see I got loads while I was there but give them a visit as they had a fabulous selection to choose from.

Jack with my Mam

I told you all the other day about Jack loving to visit my Mam so that he can chase Jess the cat from one room to the next trying to chat with her and it’s hilarious, on our last visit he was saying to her “hello gorgeous” totally cracked me up.

But there is another reason he loves to visit and here it is.

Jack with Great Gran

As you can see it is all pretty special at Great Grans so many new adventures to be found.

Tomorrow I’m going to spend the day with my Mam, I’m taking her to GNPE at Harrogate which she will love as she loves her crafting and then we will come back to mine where that wonderful man of mine is making our Sunday Dinner.
