MORE COMPUTER PROBLEMS GRRRRR...

Well it seems I am over trying to retrieve all my work on my old wordpress site. Since the fatal error occurred and Wordpress will not help in anyway i will be staying with blogger and starting fresh. I will post some of my old work that I have laying around over the next few weeks/months but it will be amongst my new work. Sorry about all the changes, but really wordpress are not very easy to deal with, the site is harder to manouvre and I can do soooo much more using blogger! So I am here to stay! Ok on and forward as they say so will hopefully be posting my first You Tube video this evening so stay tuned!

Thanks for looking:)

A challenge " to bring something from outdoors indoors"

Well this challenge over at swap sisters gave me sooo many ideas but which one to choose. The challenge was to use something from outside to create your card, page layout or 3d object. So as time was not on my side this weekend i decided to make a card

I also ran with the idea of bringing outdoors in, hence the front window and as you enter from outside the "bouquet" is laying on the table inside. A little play on the idea lol

I can use this for Shellis challenge to - something for spring

Anyway Here are my piccies







Cardstock: Choc chip, Whisper white, Hostess level 1 DSP paper pad
Stamps: Dreams Du Jour, Sanded(background stamp)
Ink : Choc chip, certainly celery, apricot appeal
punches: Curly label, 1 3/4 Square
Other: White organza (retired), twine, silver brad, certainly celery ribbon, blender pen
and some weedy stuff from the garden as the boquet!



Thanks for looking:)







PRICE $5.00 incl postage!
