Mid-week Motivation Time

By
Today over on the Make My Monday challenge blog it's time for the Mid-week Motivation. This week for my dt card I made a Recessed Window card and I have been asked to do a tutorial for it - so pop on over to the blog and take a look at all the details on how to make this card


I have used some K&Company Blue Awning paper, some Creative Expressions alphabet stamps, a butterfly stamp (can't remember where from!) and a Tim Holtz Pointer. I also used some Brushed Corduroy Distress Ink.
Here are a couple of close ups



I am also entering this card into the Flutter By Wednesday's challenge - the challenge is open, just make sure you include a butterfly, fairy or angel.
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!!!
