Pink, pink and more pink!

I'm here!.....no here... not there...aah good you found me!.......... Hello!!!.........  OK so where did that week go? So much for wanting to slow this year down...guess it will go as fast as the last.......oh but we get an extra day don't we?....leap year! A whole 24 hours extra to fill...I doubt we crafters will find that a problem. Now I propose..............

We are in the pink this week...well card wise anyway. It is a card I made for a blogging buddy across the pond....she knows who she is...she's a sweetheart, and now that I know she has received it I can share with you all...........and the twofer I did at the same time...OH I do hope she doesn't read this and like the twofer better!!

 I think it speaks for itself really. The pink blending and splodging (technical name ) was done with distress (usually me in the craft room) inks and then I stamped the tulips......I think they are Clearly Besotted..........then I added wink of Stella for a bit of sparkle.

And the twofer.........

No splodging on this one, stamped and then painted with distress inks and Crafters Companion  pencils for depth...not thrilled with the colouring...but that was my fault......the pencils do not blend well over distress inks and it was watercolour card too. Live and learn as they say!

Ok go on then,..... tell me what you have been up to this week....I know you can't get a word in edgewise....so it's over to you now! Looking round blog land you have all been very busy and multi creative.......you are a clever bunch of people, I am so lucky to have you stop by me and say 'Hello'

I hope you are all well, and if you are not...please get better soon. Keep warm in this cold and if you have snow...........no slipping and sliding please. We have had fog the past two days...like November again....surely the year hasn't gone THAT fast!!

Right I must away and create..........I am knitting, making specific cards.......you know the ones you can't share for weeks because the event is yet to come....yes I am trying to get ahead............and I don't want my darling DIL to have the baby till all is finished here!!!!!!.............SOOOOOOOOO I'd better crack on as they say and wish you all a good weekend and I will see you next week.

For those if you interested........if you are still with me....the dies are all sorted now (smug grin on face ).........boy oh boy have I some money in dies!!  A good exercise it was...all that sorting............it has reminded me of what I had forgotten about. Is lifting (I know I am not supposed to) a heavy box of dies classed as a workout though? I hope so, its cheaper than the gym.........mmmmm..rethink on that one....maybe not!

Thanks for all your time and the love you leave me...it is always so very much appreciated....it makes my day.
See you later
Hugs
