Heart Wrapped in Gold

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.

Proms in the Park

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.

I used designer background papers and matching polka dot ribbon from Papertrey Ink, coloured the image with Copic Sketch Marker I used an edge paper punch by EK Success and finished the card with some matching buttons.

Tomorrow is Proms in the park for me so can you all please do a sunshine dance tonight and pray that the rain holds off for me. I have bought some new wellingtons just in case.
