Only a Week Late!!!

By
Good morning all from a very sunny and warm Bridgnorth!
So today I have a card to share with you that is my DT card for the 


which as the title suggests is a week late!


My card was extremely quick to make and uses one of the new hostess sets Soft Spring. As my Wisteria is enjoying a second flush of flowers this card is rather apt don't you think?


So a quick stamp in Basic Gray for the flowers and sentiment (Colourful Seasons) and a colour in with Highland Heather Blends (dark and light). 

There's still loads of time to take part in the challenge as it lasts for a month so get on over and take a look.

So the reason I'm late with this post is because I have have embarked on a new project. Unfortunately I'm not as able to multi task as i used to - fibro fog has put paid to that - but I'm finding it very exciting.

I've been a member of some card swap groups on Facebook for some time but recently I decided to start one of mt own

The Crafty Card Swap

Each month I set a few challenges (that's the best bit) and those who want to take part are allocated a partner and they swap cards.
|It's a great way of expanding your crafting expertise and fun when you receive your card in the post from your partner.

Well this post has gone on long enough - I have a day of gardening in front of me so I'd better get gone.
See you soon - J xx

    Hi Jacqueline. I've had a lovely browse of your blog over a cup of tea this afternoon and you've been making some gorgeous things. My favourite is this card - absolutely stunning! I've been using this set today as well, coincidentally, and I adore it. Thanks for letting me know that the drooping flower is wisteria. I didn't recognise it at all (it most certainly isn't wisteria in my card LOL) and thought it was laburnum! But I suppose it can be what we want it to be :) Have fun with your new project xxx

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!!!

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
