Greenhouse Garden

Hi there, how's your Monday been so far? Not much to report on today, full day at work, followed by some chores at home, seeing as though I didn't do any yesterday.

I had a lovely lunch out at my SILs pub in Bolsolver, followed by basking in the afternoon sun at Mia's party. What a glorious day it was, it could have been mid Summer. Here's a pic of the birthday girl and Leanne hiding out in the playhouse.



Today's card is a quick one made with the Greenhouse Garden set. Card stock is Old Olive (not your sister Jean :-) Pretty in Pink and Rich Razzleberry. The flowers are stamped in Pretty in Pink and Rich Razzleberry using the two step stamping technique. A quick and simple card.



Just a little reminder about my open house on Saturday 16th October at 2pm. Would love to see you there, email me for more info if you would like to come along.

Thanks for stopping
Becki

Daffodil Delight

Morning, how is everyone? An early post from me today as I have lots of housework waiting for me :( So to cheer me up I have chosen Daffodil Delight for my card base today, with a bit of Old Olive thrown in.

Greenhouse Garden is a stamp set that I have had my eye on for some time, but never got round to buying. Well lucky for me it came in my starter kit. Isn't it pretty? It is so versatile too, yesterday I used it just to create a backing paper, today it is shown in full.

The image is created in two steps using a stamp-ma-jig. The flower is stamped in Summer Sun (now retired) onto Whisper White card finished off with the Scalloped Border punch.



The spotty paper is from the new designer paper pack - which is huge! I also like the fact that is in a book format so it's easy to store.

The sentiment is from the Oval All, punched out with the Oval Large punch.

I'm off to make a start on some housework now, I'm sure there will be time for crafting later today :-)

Have a fab day and thanks for stopping by.
