A Bit O' Green! - Simon Says Stamp DT Card

Good afternoon lovely peeps!

I have at last got a couple of days off work & I am beyond shattered! 

Tomorrow I'm going to be hibernating in my craft room as any time off I have had off work lately I'm too tired to be bothered with anything after working all these 14 + hour shifts, so I'm determined tomorrow is play day :)

It's Wednesday which means -

Today's card features Taylored Expressions Sheet Music embossing folder which I have used to emboss white card stock & then added a few ink splatters with distress inks.

The lovely sentiment is from Simon Says Stamps latest New Beginnings release & is from the Hand Lettered Encouragement stamp set.

My little Etsy shop has now been updated :)

I have a new camera & am slightly confused with all the buttons & settings so I am going to try and get to grips with that this week! I'm not very patient with learning new technology but thinking back I almost deleted my blog after a week of not being able to work out how to do everything, so I AM going to persevere!

That's me finished for today, thanks for stopping by

No Designer Paper - Simon Says Stamp DT Card

Hello lovely peeps!
The weather is changing far too quickly for my liking & as today is Autumn Equinox it's downhill all the way now until Spring, I'm a happy little soul today aren't I lol.
I've not been feeling great the last few days, I've got a cold & my poor shoulder doesn't like cold or wet weather so I've been dosed up on painkillers and doing lots of colouring and pottering in my craft room. I absolutely love my gorgeous new craft room and have spent pretty much two days in there busy working on some card orders & reorganising my stash.....again lol.

It's Wednesday which means ..........
