Ornate Flowers

By
I'm having such a good time in my craft room today. I'm sort of having a clear out of all the stuff I don't need any more but finding hidden treasures that I'd forgotten I had. That does mean though that there is more playing than clearing! Another good thing is annoying my kids by playing my Bruce Springsteen CDs REALLY loud!
Today I have sought inspiration from two places. Firstly I headed over to Splitcoast Stampers and followed the Sketch Challenge from yesterday. I also saw a card on Vicky's blog here - where she had used a combination of mustard and black and this is what I have come up with -

I also used Stampin' Up Ornate Flowers to create my image.
Really must get back to my sorting now - see you soon - Jacqueline xx.

So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr

 I have decided to try and get on top of my Christmas cards early this year and so far it’s going well!!! Here is a card that has been made using the Sweet Gingerbread set - I love gingerbread houses and the stamps and matching dies are really cute.

Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx
