18th Beauty

Evening all

I give up with my heating system.  A new boiler was put in a couple of months ago but I haven't used the heating until last week when the temperature dropped.  Everything seemed to be working fine until yesterday, no matter how high I turned it up the radiators stayed cold.  So today I rang to get someone out, they are coming tomorrow afternoon, the problem is that it seems to have suddenly starting working again.  Not sure what to do now, I can't go through the winter with the threat of the heating only working when it feels like it.


Anyway, I have made a girly card tonight.  The digital stamp is called Darla Dogwood Blooming from Lacy Sunshine Stamps and I have coloured using Copics and ProMarkers.
