Hello lovely peeps,
Oh my goodness how time flies! Everyday feels the same at the moment and I can't believe another week has passed already since I was last here!
I seem to have suddenly found my mojo yaaaaaayyyyy. For the first time I am wishing we didn't move my craft room to the attic as trying to relax & craft while needing to be on hand and keep an eye on hubby is pretty difficult when he's down in the lounge. Hopefully I have found the solution! I've bought a nice big plastic easy to carry tub with handles and can pop the bits & pieces in to make a card and bring them downstairs & sit at my old desk in my little old craft room & be close enough to keep popping my head round the door to check on hubs. It's a bit of a palaver I know but hopefully it will work out just until hubs is fit & well again & can be trusted to be left unsupervised lol. I'd much rather trot up & down stairs & a loft ladder carrying my tub of stash than not be able to craft or hear hubs if he needs me.

As I've said before I love WOW cards (white on white) especially when they are embossed. I always think WOW cards look so elegant so hopefully I have made mine look elegant too.
I have used a pearl pen around my oval die cut for a change. I'm not normally happy with how my pearls look using a pearl pen so have never used them on a card but as I discovered a couple when sorting through my stash I thought I'd give them another try.
As always our lovely Heidi is sponsoring our challenge with a $50 voucher for the fabulous
