Totally Gorjuss - 142 - Pearls.

Good morning everyone, another Saturday and another challenge over at Totally Gorjuss. We have a nice easy challenge for you this week, we'd like to see some pearls on your card or project. We have a new sponsor this week, Dillybeans Stamps and Megan has given all the DT our own choice of digi image to use on our cards. I have chosen the lovely "Snow Mamma", isn't she lovely with her little baby? Thank you very much Megan I love this image, it's so sweet. You musn't miss the cards the rest of the DT have made, they're all gorgeous.

I used :-

Colouring :- Promarkers.

Sentiment and candi :- Craftwork Cards.

DP :- First Edition.

Martha Stewart snowflake and edge punches.

Pearls, Glamour Dust and ribbon.

Hope we get some sunshine today! Yesterday was beautiful.........till about 4pm or so and then the rain came  pelting down. It was bouncing off the road.!! And I'd left my washing out. I never do that if there's even a remote chance of rain but it didn't look as if it would rain. I had to put it back in the machine for a quick wash, it was just soaking!! Then of course it came on again when I was out with the dogs. Suppose I should be used to that this summer!!

I'll catch up with you all later and have a lovely weekend whatever you've got planned.

More Christmas in July.

Well it's not been July weather so why not get on with some Christmas cards? I love this mummy snowlady with her cute little baby don't you? I think I might make some more cards with this sweet image.

Colouring :- Promarkers

I hope this fits the monochrome challenges but if not I'm happy for these challenges to delete my entry!

I've not achieved much today. I had to take the car for it's MOT today and then tax it so that ran away with a lot of my morning but at least it's done! It's been really nice today. Not completely sunny or hot but there has been sun and it's dry and warm so that's a bonus after all the rain we've had.

I'm off to see if I can get anything else done now before I need to walk the dogs and make tea. I'm off out tonight so as usual my day off has just vanished. I would so love to not have to work!! On the other hand my friend recently had a minor op and has been off work for 4 weeks. She thought she'd be off for a couple of days so she's pretty fed up now and will actually be glad to get back to work. So I suppose not working is fine as long as you're not off work due to ill health or recovering from an operation.

I'm quite looking forward to taking the dogs out now when it's nice. Makes a change from coming in with muddy boots and eight muddy paws!!

See you later if my internet connection is behaving. Sometimes it's not very good in the evening. In fact the last two evenings it's been so rubbish I could hardly get online at all!
