Dull day here, gives cloudy but no rain hopefully.

What is it, that when we get to a certain age,

we constantly talk about the weather 😂

It's First Communion and Confirmation season so I have

lots of orders to get done.

Hope you have a lovely day and thanks so much for dropping by.

 

 

Quite Curvy Mother's Day

Happy Monday!

Hope you all had a lovely weekend.

We had rain all day Saturday so we spent

it painting again then I watched a movie with my daughter

to relax 😁

My card today is another commission for

Mother's Day.

I used one of my retired embossing folders for the base

then ran a sheet of the Oh So Ombre (free) papers

through with my Pinewood Planks embossing folder.

The flower image is a pre printed one from LOTV

which I framed using the Quite Curvy stamps and dies.

They were coloured with blends

(rococo rose and granny apple green).

The sentiment is from

Strong and Beautiful stamp set

and the Granny was stamped using

Make A Difference stamp set.

I decorated with some ribbon and pearls.

Ornate style for Mother's Day

Working on my CAS cards

I followed a colour challenge over at

CAS Colours & Sketches

The stamp set is called Ornate Style

and I just used part of the stamp.

I have coloured the flowers using the ink pads

and my wink of stella brush.

I used Melon Mambo card and ink,

bumblebee ink and old olive ink.

The lightly pink flowers are just a

watered down Melon Mambo.

The sentiment is from Strong & Beautiful,

stamped in melon mambo ink.

Very easy and very enjoyable to colour in,

thought I think I do a better job with my blends 😂

I nipped in to Lidl on Saturday to get a few items for my son

OMG I could hardly get moving!!

Peoples trolleys where filled to the brim with who knows what!

I couldn't wait to get out of the place!

Be careful out there people and look after your neighbours and family.
