I'm in the Mood for Love......

Hi, February is the month for showing our love to whoever deserves it.  Am going to start with my February Pennant (you can see January in the post below).

For this month's pennant I used Tim Holtz cardstock which I won from Wanda a couple of years ago.  Dabbed with Distress Inks, edged the hearts with Gold Paint Dabber and coated with Modge Podge to protect.  The little doily was very conveniently put under my coffee cup in a Garden Centres'  Restaurant, so that went straight in my bag.......we all love a freebie don't we, this also has been dabbed with Distress Inks, although its hard to see in the photograph.

Have also made a couple of cards for family:

Stamps by Artistic Outpost and Darkroom Door

Two Embossing Folders, Two Die Cuts, brad and an Emery Board.  Stamp by  Craft Lounge

Both very quick and easy cards to make.

The snow came down quite thickly last night and again today but luckily so far its not freezing.  Tomorrow we are off to the Hospital for more heart tests on my husband, methinks he will have to have some more stents put in as he has not been feeling very brilliant lately.

Thank you for visiting me and wishing you a lovely week.  Take care, hugs Annette xx

You Outta Be in Pictures...........

Hi, November's theme at Happy Daze is Brighten up the Month.  The new stamps 'Picture Star' by Artistic Outpost certainly brightened up my month.

''Down on your heels

Up on your toes

That's the way to do the Varsity Drag.''

Stamped the images on Speciality Stamping Paper with Archival Coffee Ink, adding some Distress Inks to give an aged appearance, the rest is simply matting and layering.  A lovely simple card to make which I think looks quite glamorous despite not having any embellishments.

I would like to enter this card into the Artistic Outpost November Challenge.

Looking forward to seeing your interpretation of the theme this month and don't forget the prize of a £15 voucher.

Hope you are having a lovely Sunday, take care of yourselves, hugs Annette x
