Evening, another quickie post, been out of action for much of the past two days, had the most horrendous sinus headache that would not go, so spent a lot of time in bed, apart from yesterday afternoon when we took the children to the park, and I discovered that boys are never too old to paddle in the paddling pool :)

And then today we were back to rain and dark clouds again :(  Just as well, as I was feeling under par.  Today's card is another simple one, 10cm by 10cm, showcasing the lovely Attic Boutique DSP again:

 and a Teeny Tiny Wishes sentiment to finish:

Have a good evening everyone and speak to you soon xxx

 What a busy day today!  We had an early start this morning as the torch was due to pass near us just after 8am and what a spectacle it was :)  Lots of policemen on their motorbikes whooping up the crowd, three advertising trucks, and finally the torch bearer jogged past us. Even George agreed it was worth the early wake up call :)

 Then it was a mad dash back to load up the car for the craft market, got there on time, thankfully, was worried that the torch relay would impact on traffic, but as it was so early in the morning, there weren't many cars on the road anyway.  The craft fair went quite well, its the first time I had tried this one and I liked it so will hopefully be doing it agan when its next on.

Today's card is a 10cm by 10cm one again and I used paper from Attic Boutique again.  I like this paper, it is bright and bold, two of my favourite words :)

 I love the vintage feel and the colours and how they correspond with the in-colours.

 This week I will be planning the cards for this month's club, on 21st, 23rd and 24th July, from 10am to 12pm.  More info is on my Stampers Club tab up there ^^^ or please feel free to message me to book your spot, I look forward to hearing from you :)

 Today had so much promise, the sun was out when I got up this morning, George was up early for a change, then before we knew it, it clouded over and started raining again :(  I don't think we are going to have a summer this year, its July already and the last warm sunny day was back in March, far too long ago.  So, instead of going out, I am sat here, sorting out my stock and watching 90210 for a bit of lighthearted relief and sunshine tv :)

 On to today's card, it is another smaller card, 10cm by 10cm and I used another design from the Attic Boutique dsp for it, and used Melon Mambo card and Scallop Dots Ribbon to pull out the pink of the roses on the dsp.

I hope you are all having a lovely day with beautiful weather, wherever you are and I'll speak to you soon.

Spent the morning taking my great-aunt out for a spot of shopping and brunch.  Was late getting to hers though because I was engrossed in making a couple of cards (one of which is below)  Then this afternoon we popped down to Poole Quay for a bag of chips and a look at all the swanky boats over at the Sunseeker factory, which lead to a conversation about what we'd do if we won a ton of money, both my friend and I decided that the first thing we would buy is a house :)

 So, on to today's card, its just a likkle one, 10cm by 10cm, but they do say that all good things come in small packages :)  I used Wisteria Wonder card for the border and the paper is from Attic Boutique dsp.

 I used a stamp from the Mixed Bunch stamp set for the floral embellishment and used the 'blossom punch' to punch it out (so much easier than cutting round it, like I was doing before lol) and finished it off with a sentiment from Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set.

Please message me if you would like to place an order, or if you have any queries, I look forward to hearing from you :)

 A busy day for sports today, it is the Wimbledon Final and the British Grand Prix, and for a while they were both on at the same time, so I was sat here with the tennis on the computer and the F1 on the television.  To cap it all off, the tennis is now on a rain delay, so here I am fitting in a quick blog post :)

Apologies for the quality of the photos, I have a new phone and am trying to get to grips with how it works at the moment, so please bear with me :)

 For this card I used a DSP from the Summer Mini catalogue, Attic Boutique.  I am finding it hard to chose which of the new DSPs I like the most, they are all pretty fabuolous :)  I used a framelits die to frame the piece of dsp:

I finished off with a sentiment from the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set:

Tennis is back on now, so off I go to watch the rest of the match, fingers crossed that Murray wins, but not holding out much hope :(  Speak to you all soon and enjoy the rest of your day :)
