Ice Blue Poinsettia

Evening peeps

That was a hard day at work. Our busiest time is over the weekend, so it seems mad to leave the bakery with one colleague and a Section Leader in the afternoons. The colleague has to get everything trayed up for the following day, so they have no time to do packing. So it left me to try and pack, work brought in bread and serve customers, all in between phone calls and huddles, I think that the contract base needs to be looked at.

Anyway, I have gone with a Christmas card tonight in the colour blue. The digital stamp is called Christmas Poinsettia Girl from Lemon Shortbread and it has been coloured using Copics and ProMarkers.

Other materials used are:

White card stock

Blue card stock

Digital patterned paper

Crealies Crea-Nest-Lies XXL No. 23 die set

Die'sire Poinsettia die set

Tattered Lace Christmas die

Red beads

Crystal Glamour Dust glitter

Willow

Evening peeps

I have half my garden laid to lawn, it feels like I'm getting somewhere with it now. Now all I need to do is keep my cat off of it and train him to use the patch that I have left as dirt. I'm hoping that will sort out the issue of him messing, not only on my grass, but on the neighbours gardens as well.

Anyway, only a quick card tonight. I have made a male card in shades of brown. The stamp I have used is called Willow Tree from Inkylicious and I have used Adirondack Earthtones Espresso ink pad.

Other materials used are:

White card stock

Brown Centura Pearl card stock

Spring Showers

Evening peeps

I have had a wobbly tooth for weeks now, it has really given me any pain, so I thought I would wait until my check appointment with the Dentist before getting it taken out. Well there is no need to wait now, yesterday while on a break at work, it just came out, no pain or no blood, I have never had that happen before. At least I haven't had to pay for it to be taken out.

Anyway, a little crafting this afternoon. The digital stamp on this card is called Butterfly Shade from Di's Digi Stamps and it has been coloured using Copics and ProMarkers.
