Simply Springtime.

This is my last post for a while - Dad is in hospital having some treatment so I'm popping up to see him. This is also the last of my challenge cards for this week too - take a look
I made this card following the sketch over on Simply Stampin'
I used some of the Springtime Vintage DSP mounted onto some Always Artichoke card stock (although you can't see that very well 'cos I made such a pigs ear of placing it that I had to trim most of it off!!). I then used some Rose Red card stock with a little pale pink ribbon to make the borders. The main image is stamped using the new Baby Blossoms set and it is mounted on some 3D foam tape.
I am going to go and pack now - not in a suitcase though - oh no. I have to pack my clothes in a black bin liner. Why? Well my darling daughter has recently been away and she broke my only suitcase - she didn't tell me either 'till just now...doh!
See you soon - enjoy your weekends - Jacqueline xx.

    I love this stripy DP from the Springtime Vintage papers and I think it looks great with a narrow edge of Always Artichoke. The little floral label looks gorgeous too.

    Hope all is well with your dad Jacqueline. Take care, Vx

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. 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. I used the sketch from  52 Christmas Card Throwdown  - this is a brilliant Christmas challenge blog (I started it many years ago with Mynn Kitchen) and it’s a perfect way to get organised with Christmas crafting. Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx
