90th Birthday card.

Good morning everyone, hope your day is going well.
Here is the card tht I mentioned yesterday. It's for my SIL Stuart's grandmother's birthday. She'll be celebrating with all her family and friends tomorrow and I'm sure she'll have a wonderful time.

I created the card base & covered with some DP I had lying about in one of my drawers. The numbers are stamped using Crafters Companion Cute Companions number stamps and embossed with silver detail embossing powder then glittered with pee wee glitter. The flowers are stamped using some of the CC Almond Flower Fairy stamps using Archival Sepia Ink then sprayed with Crafters Companion silver Spray & Sparkle. The gems & ribbon are from my stash.



Well better get off as we've got to go and pick up the tiles for the wet room. We've chosen the ones we want just hope we like them when they are on the wall. I hate chosing tiles as it's difficult to envisage the end result. Anyway it's a bit late to change my mind now so decision made.
Thanks for stopping by and your comments would be much appreciated.
Take care,
Love, Pat xx

Quick hello.

No card to post today although I have almost completed one today for a 90th birthday. Will post a pic tomorrow if I manage to get time.
Well the wet room alterations are well underway. Thought we had left the very dusty part behind and had cleared most of the mess away. How wrong was I? Today the door and frame had to be removed and because it wasn't square demolition derby started again. To be honest there seemed more dust today than there was when they busted up the floor. Anyway I got it cleared and mopped the kitchen floor but left the bucket in there and forgot about it. Upshot is John went into the kitchen without putting the light on and yes you've got it, knocked over the bucket. Water water everywhere, what a ****** mess. So the floor is well and truly clean now!

Must go as the battery on this laptop is low so I'd bettter plug it in. See you tomorrow.
Goodnight,
Love Pat xx

Puzzling!!

Jigsaws.
Hi there and thanks for stopping by. Our challenge this week at Tuesday Taggers is to use jigsaw piece or pieces. Our DT have come up with some fantastic creations so please pop over to check them out and join in the challenge with us this week. As usual what you create is entirely up to you as long as there is a jigsaw connection.
I "borrowed" a couple of jigsaw pieces from Elliot's (GS) Ben Ten puzzle which I drew around onto an image that I'd stamped on paper which I'd created using distress inks and pearl glimmer mist. I cut the pieces out and spotlighted them onto the same stamped image.


Looking forward to seeing what ideas you all come up with this week. Should be a very interesting challenge.
Oh and don 't forget you've still got time to apply for the DT places check the challenge blog for details.
Have a good day,
Hugs, Pat xx
