Hello Everyone
I hope you are all having a fab week.
I'm sorry I haven't been able to pop and see you all yet as my internet and phone lines have been down - apparently due to a lightning strike!
But I'm back up and running - just - so I will be across to see you all soon - thank you for your lovely comments.
Well, it's Saturday again so that can only mean one thing for this week's Totally Gorjuss challenge - a sketch - yay - and here it is:
I was asked to make a wedding card for a friend and the colours of the wedding are ivory, cream and green - so pretty and quite unusual I thought.
The recipe for the card is:
And finally, I wanted to show you a picture of the back of my card which my teamie Samantha did something similar on one of her cards to use up the scraps and I did tell her that I would 'steal' her idea - which I have ;o) and here it is:
Phew - and that's it - I hope you managed to get through it all!
I hope you all have a great weekend.
Take care
Toodle Pip

Remember you can play with the sketch, (I have change the oval to a circle), mirror it, turn it upside-down etc; as long as we can see that the sketch is there somewhere then you are in with a chance to win a voucher to spend in the fabulous Joanna Sheen store, (don't forget Joanna does free P&P!).
