Bee Happy!

By
I have been as busy as the proverbial bee today what with one thing and another - but I did have time to make this card for this week's CAS-ual Friday challenge.
This week we had this sketch to follow
And my card looks like this

I made this card by sponging through a small piece of sequin waste with More Mustard and Really Rust inks. The cute little bees are from my new Stampin' Up set - Nature Walk and the sentiment was stamped using a mini alphabet set.
Hope everyone had a good weekend - despite the weather (don't you just love British Summertime!!!) - bye for now - 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!!!

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