I didn't dream it .. .. the Moving Along With The Times challenge is for layers so I can go and enter my card.
And, I'll enter the Paper Sundaes and Incy Wincy blog challenges as they each have a birthday theme this week.
I managed to finish shovelling the gravel onto the path yesterday - and have discovered muscles in my arms I forgot I had! Fortunately hubby had done the bulk of the work on Sunday so I didn't have too much to do - it's looking good but I'm not going out in the rain to take a picture. And talking of taking pictures, I've tried several times to snap the kitchen roman blind that is now hanging at the window - I am pleased with it, although the Laura Ashley sale fabric was a bit of a pain with the print and the warp/weft not lining up. In the end I stayed with the pattern and cut by the selvage edges rather than trying to line up with the weave across the fabric. I have quite a bit left over but can't decide whether to make oven mits or place mats .. .. .. I've also tried snapping a cross stitch flower picture I've moved into the 'green' dining area - I made it several years ago and discovered it goes quite well! Every time I try to take a picture I'm getting reflections in the glass or it's too dark to show up the delicate flowers - oh well, you'll just have to stop by for a cuppa and see it for yourselves!
WOWZER!! Anne, this is really gorgeous hun!! I love your coloring and touches of sparkle!! HUGS :)
ReplyDeleteYour colouring is just so good! What a lovely romantic card! (And I've had your problem with Laura Ashley fabric, too - it's so annoying!)

Beautifully coloured stamp. I love the stamps by that artist, but haven't dared purchasing any yet as they look difficult to shade. Excellent job on yours, the whole card is lovely!
ReplyDeleteHello Annie. This is so beautiful, gorgeous colours, love the layers and your image is beautiful. Thank you for joining us at MAWTT and good luck.

Delightful use of the colours of the image with the patterned papers - reading your description it sounds as if you coloured then went for the papers; it always intrigues me to know which way round works. Take care with all those muscles & I'd love to drop by if I'm in the area - I would of course give you advance notice.
ReplyDeleteMuch love

Oh this is super what a great card, thanks for playing on MAWTT with our Lots of Layers theme this week, Hazelxo
ReplyDeleteYour card is absolutely stunning! I really like the muted tone of it, but also the dark bits that make the image pop...never would have known that you coloured and left it and then touched it up. Very nice! Thanks for playing in Paper Sundaes Birthday Challenge last week!
