I have to confess that I did ponder on the notion of nipping down the shop for a card, but I was severely reprimanded by Jenni on the dc forum...AND threatened with the naughty step - so I headed for the emporium quick sharp and created this card. Hooray for Sizzix dies bought in the sale, and my lovely Martha Stewart corner punch - my card came together nicely without me throwing my dummy out of the pram, not even once!
Its nice to be getting busy in the emporium since those darned headaches buggered off - its awful how they suck all the inspiration out of me! But no...they are gone, and Im a busy little bee. I also made my atc for the February swap - but that is a secret project until Fiona has received it. Ive been chopping up my photos for my Christmas album...but my, there are hundreds of them so Im at a loss how to approach that particular project just now - I guess I will ponder on that a little longer.
I have to share with you my cute felt bags from Waitrose, they are so adorable! I know a few of you on dc have drooled over them, but another peep wont hurt eh....
This is a rectangular one with grass and tulips - I believe it is supposed to be for the wee ones to collect up their Easter eggs in, but as soon as I saw it, I envisaged ribbons...lots of ribbons!
Meanwhile, look who is living inside...
Having bought that one early in the week, my eyes kept resting on the other option sitting on the shelf....I ummed and ahhed - I cant imagine why, as once it came to live with me by the end of the week, I think I loved it more than the first one!
Isnt it pretty! Cute fluffy sheep thinks so too!
I think blooms will look nice in this one!
So Sunday has come around again...Valentines Day and a special day for all you sweethearts out there - I hope you ladies will be spoilt rotten!
Sis will likely send her OH out fishing, while she spends her anniversary with me...doing what we do best...
The crossy...with plenty of tea/coffee drinking and hopefully lots of chocolate too!
Have a wonderful day you all!
