Holiday memories

I've had the whole day to myself :) but I did have chores to do :(


But I did find a little bit of spare time to make a couple of cards. The first one is for Saturday Sketch and I've used the print and cut images by Samantha Walker cut on the Silhouette. I am so excited, the Silhouette has a new design programme and it looks AWESOME - just got to get used to it now.

Also had time to fit in another card using some distress inks, my oh my, what a mess! Love playing around with the inks but must remember to keep wiping hands to stop getting fingerprints on everything LOL (and also scan the card straight....)

Have a good week.

I'm back from my holiday - LOL, if you can call it such! Two weeks of walking isn't everyone's idea of a holiday but I had a great time. It was very challenging which made it all the more rewarding and it was wonderful to see England so close up and personal; the Lakes were spectacular but no more so than the North Yorkshire Moors which had their own special beauty.


So, on to today's card - I'm entering this in Sir Stampalot Challenge and also Saturday Sketch. I have used October Afternoon Thrift Shop: Needs Paint papers. I love these papers and really had to make myself use them rather than just keep them on my shelf and take them off and look at them every now and again :) I've coloured the stamped image in with copics and tried to give the card a bit of a distressed look.

Hubby got himself the new IPhone and I've got his old one. He thought it was very intuitive and didn't need much instruction to use but that was before he gave it to me! I'm just off to have a play with it now and see what scrapping Apps I can download.....

Thanks for looking,

Saturday Sketch

You know how it is, you start off on one blog and then follow a link to another and then another and before you know, you forget where you started! Well, today that happened and I ended up at Saturday Sketch blog.
I love doing sketch challenges, they give me focus and today I made a couple of cards using images off the Silhouette online store. which I fell in love with the minute I saw them. Yet again I have used Daisy Bucket papers, my favourite :) and bazzil card. I'm thinking ahead as it's my birthday in March and if I am lucky enough to receive any presents, I will already have two thank-you cards ready to go. I couldn't make my mind up which one to put forward for the challenge so I have done both. Thanks for looking.
