A Picture in Pink

Evening all.

A simple card for today as I have damaged my back, once again, and don't like to sit too long.

The stamp is, of course, a Hero Arts one. It is one I have owned for a few years now and still comes in handy for a quick and easy card.

Add the diamantes to the Cuttlebugged card and a bit of ribbon and we are done.

Evening everyone,

Thank you for visiting my blog and especially thank you for leaving a comment or two!

I went nowhere today for the first time in a very long time! Firstly, I quickly did a cursory sweep of the house doing the very necessary chores only!!!! Then came and updated my visiting everyone's blogs....and finally into the art room. Here is one of the cards produced today. Will post another tomorrow.

Many thanks also for the many good tidings for the health of my DH! He requested I stay home today (must have seen how worn out I was becoming with the eternal driving!). He is doing well and tells me he galloped up the ward hallway.....Yeah right! He did go for a little toddle this morning....but was really dizzy and opted not to try this arvo.

I may just stay home tomorrow too...if he agrees he really doesn't need me in there. But then, not going for two whole days just doesn't seem right!

Cuttlebug Highlights

I am not happy with this scan. I might try a digital photo of the card coz here it is hard to see the highlights of gold that I have over the wording. I finished this off this afternoon after I finished doing the accounts for the farm. Having paid the PAYG and BAS for another quarter, I can merrily forget about all things accounting! But for now the shoulder more than needs to rest!

This card actually has the Cuttlebug Smoosh thing happening ... sort of...The ink was a little dry, so it only just came out. I decided to highlight the wording instead with gold. It is subtle I must say, but any more gold and it would be overkill. The wording is raised from a second piece of card treated in the same manner.
