Sunset Flamingo

By
I haven't blogged for a couple of days - internet problems again - grrrrr! And I missed the deadline for a challenge - grrrrrrr again!
Anyhoo - on with the show - today's card is for the challenge over at


I used my beautiful flamingo set again but this time I didn't stamp her in pretty pinks but used her as a silhouette - take a look


I masked off my sections using post it notes and brayered my colours on the card base - totally flat, this is a one layer card - perfect for posting!

Short and sweet today it's late and I have a full day of ironing planned for tomorrow. Hopefully it won't be as hot as it was today - I hate ironing at the best of times - but when it's hot it's awful!!
Thanks for stopping by today - don't forget to check out the offers in the side bar - see you soon - J xx

    Wow, it's hard to believe this beauty is a one-layered card! The silhouette over the masked panel really adds a sense of depth. Lovely card, Jacqueline. Thanks for joining us at The Paper Players.

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
