it doesnt always have to be white...

Good morning everyone how was your weekend?, anything exciting...well all our plans came to nothing yesterday we didn't move anything as the heavens opened and threw everything at us...a bit of rain a bit of snow and sleet and was blowing a hurricane, so we decided not too risk getting anything too wet and nobody relished lugging stuff around in that weather...we didn't even get out to buy her house warming present either...so not a very exciting day all in all but we did head to the pet store for some essentials and for me to coo over the Degu's...if you haven't heard of them look them up but be prepared if you don't like mice kinda things...I think they are so so cute and always manage an aaaawwww...oh and I nearly bought a knitted cable sweater for the kitten but caught sight of Phil's 'your nuts woman' look out of the corner of my eye and changed my mind lol...now for my card for today...now who says wedding cards always have to be white?, well this one certainly isn't, in fact I think it has a bit of every colour in it...this stamp is from Wild Rose Studio and is called At the Altar...its beautifully elegant isn't it, I coloured it with my usual distress inks adding a bit of Stickles Glitter Glue - Star Dust, the stunningly beautiful papers are from the Basic Grey Fresh Cut 6" x 6" Paper Pad, I added a bow made from my favourite Organza Ribbon - White (25mm Wide) its so easy to make lush bows with this wired ribbon I used a sentiment from the Kaisercraft Mini Clear Stamp set - Wedding and added some beautiful roses from the Marianne Design Paper Roses - White/Blue (RB2214) pack and for a finishing touch I stuck on some beautifully coloured pearls from the Mixed Bag of 5mm Flat backed Pearls, everything I used today is from Bunny Zoe's Crafts...I made the sketch up as I went along but am entering this for the 4 Crafty Girls Challenges, The Ribbon Girls Challenge and the Delicious Doodles Challenge too...I think its a bit of tidying, organising boxes and maybe a bit more colouring practise for me today, thank you all for the encouragement yesterday I am definitely going for the dodgy paper reason for rubbish colouring...well you all agreed with me too didn't you lol...whatever your up to today I hope its a brilliant fun one for you

Good morning everyone did you all have a fabulous weekend?...I was very out of sorts after my hospital visit on Friday so had the weekend to chill and put it all aside before I could settle down to creating anything...poor Phil got asked to work on Saturday when he was supposed to be marshaling...but on Saturday the heavens opened and the racing was cancelled so he didn't miss anything...in fact the rain was of biblical proportions and was running down our street at one stage...all those poor people who had come from all over the world for the racing didn't get to see anything...in fact there's a B&B three doors up from us and the German riders staying there only got one ride around the track before the racing was stopped isn't that awful...but all's well now everyone has gone home and things are getting back to normal...although the 100 or so bikes that took a short cut through our very quiet street on Friday evening were a bit of a shock lol, but Phil loved it...right now onto my card for today...how sweet is this cutie...shes one of the new Wild Rose Studios stamps and is called Bella with Posy, just what you need isn't it a cute little elephant with flowers, now that would make anyone smile...I coloured her with my distress inks and teamed her up with some more of the amazingly gorgeous Kaisercraft - Needle & Thread 6.5"x6.5" Paper Pad...lush isn't it...I finished with a scattering of pearls and three flowers from the Prima Flowers Perle Bebe - Almanac pack...everything I used except the pearls are from Bunny Zoe's Crafts... the fab sketch is from Sunday Sketch and Stamp Challenge and I'm also entering it for the Crafty Calender Challenge and the Dream Valley Challenge too...I'm having a catch up day today theres loads of DT stuff I have to catch up with...I may have to lock myself in lol...whatever your up to today I hope its a fabulously sunny one for you
