A Bit Late

By
My dt card for this week's Make My Monday is a bit late - during all the rain this weekend my craft room sprang a leek and I lost a lot of stuff including my prepared work for my dt pieces.
I have spent the weekend clearing up and today catching up!!
However better late than never and we also have a brand new theme - SPRING.
The first challenge under this heading is - SPRING FLOWERS.
Here is my card


My spring flowers are Lily of the Valley and my main flower has been quilled - something I haven't done for years!



My stamp is from Hero Arts - that's years old too but fits in beautifully with this challenge.


Don't forget to pop over to the blog to see what fabulous work my team have made this week - see you soon - Jacqueline xx

    This is really lovely Jacqueline. The quilled flower is a stunner too and I've never tried that shape before. It's very effective with the stamped images.
    Hugs, Fliss xx

    This is an amazingly brilliant card--especially on such short notice! The quilled lily of the valley is so stunning--it's my birth flower and so I just LOVE this!!! :)

    What a shame about losing your work due to the rain - hope the leak has been repaired. I've not done any quilling for absolutely ages either but these lilies are brilliant and the whole card is so pretty

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
