"Chevrons"

Hello friends.
Hope you all had a good weekend and managed to make the best of the inclement weather, and the extra hour! It still goes all too quickly doesn't it!

Well CAS card from me today. one I made for my sons birthday a couple of weeks back-he asked if I ran out of time making it! -cheek! it actually took me a day to come up with it - I know -how you may ask, but I am well out of my comfort zone here and tried to take a bit of inspiration from blogland - they always seem to get it right out there -and they know who they are!

So here it is! sorry it looks a bit distorted in the photo.




I used Uniko studios Background Builders -  Chevrons, and the sentiment was from their All Occasion Sentiments 2 set.
I had a bit of trouble lining up the chevrons for the repeat and when it was done it all looked a bit flat so out came the quickie glue pen and the glamour dust. I was a lot happier with it then, the sparkle seemed to bring it to life

Perhaps the experts out there might like to give me some tips, they would be much appreciated as are any comments that anyone cares to leave. They make my day! Thank you..

Well time is pressing, lots to do and I want to make it a productive day today - my aim for all week - I have shed loads on my list but somehow the umph! is not as good as it should be. Know the feeling?

Take care friends and have a good week.
Hugs
