Anniversary

 Hi Friends.....how are you all doing?

Today is the Anniversary of some friends so I made this card for them.....

I had the idea in my mind (as you do) but not quite like it eventually turned out..lol! I spent more time faffing ad pondering than I did finally finishing it, and that was after I had walked away for a couple of hours and come back to it with fresh eyes. Do you do that?

This is an old stamp from Chloe, stamped and embossed with wow platinum powder and then the tiny dots applied with liquid pears in ...???  you guessed it ..Platinum. The sentiment was stamped with Versafine Clair Morning Mist.

I edged the card with a silver leaf pen . Anyone remember them? It saved a layer of card for posting. A layer of pale pink and a little butterfly with a few tiny pink pearls.  Much quicker to write about than execute..lol! Jury still a bit out on it here.

Life is busy with  various appointments and all the usual chores one can only leave so long, so apologies for my sporadic blogging..

Today is dull and breezy, the sun seems to have bunked off..again.... and I feel that the short summer we had here in the UK...last month infact...is over and we are heading for Autumn already. The shops are getting their autumn clothes in and I for one think it is far too soon!

Is it the same where you are? Do you feel that retail always pushes us too quickly into the next season?

If you are yet to have your summer break..enjoy!

Hoping this finds you all well and happy.

See you soon
