Watercolour card

Good afternoon everyone. Just a very quick post today as 
we are expecting visitors any minute lol. The theme over at
'Less is More'  is .......................
 
 
  "Our challenge for this week... We want you to use a 
RUBBER STAMP
In addition if you could use watercolours that would be wonderful!"
 
 
This is what I came up with , Penny Black stamp & sentiment
& watercolouring. I used cream card for a change as it went better with
my watercolour card ,which was a sort of off white colour.I used
 a touch of glamour dust on some of the letters also.
 
 Have a lovely weekend whatever you have planned. We are
 hosting a big  family 'do' again so we will be very busy I fear :)

Wish card

Good morning on this rather wet Saturday here.I suppose
the garden needs the rain though ! Another weekend and
so yet another  'LIM'  card . The recipe this week  is .......
 
WASHI TAPE
"You can use the shop bought type or you can make your
 own one way or another. We know you will be inventive
 if you don't have any in your stash "...

Posting card first to spare you having to read all below, but
please do if you have the odd hour lol :) Handmade Washi tape
using tissue, d/s tape, stamped with tapestry stamps &  use 
of lots of naughty words :)



Thankyou C&J for choosing my card to be showcased last week,
 so kind :)

Fairly sure this is a 'Day for Daisies' digi, I added the Wish sentiment & the star.

 Well panic set in early this time lol, as I am not a fan of Washi
 tape . I did know I had some lurking around here in my craft
 room. A freebie a while ago which of course I haven't used.
 Hmmm but could I find it..............NO ! ( much searching and
 muttering to  myself )..."I must put things in  logical places".


 Tape should be with all my other tapes grrrrr.
 So the only thing to do was to make my own. Let's just say it
 didn't go too well..... ( understatemenet of the year) all that sticking
 and trying  to peel the back off flimsy tissue paper. Almost lost the  
will to live!!! Anyway sorry about the rambling YET again, here's
 what I came up with.


 Do  have a lovely weekend whatever you  have planned ( smiles).
ps. Sorry I am so late commenting again , ( catching up today).
The cleaning and sorting ( almost finished in rest of the house
 now....sighs! )  has begun in earnest ( whoever he is !) in my craft
 room and as you  all know ( insert much laughter here)  that 
isn't an easy place  to clean and  sort lol.

So pleased for my DIL as she has passed her GCSE in 
Spanish and got an A ..........fabuloso....me gusta ! ( thanks
to my lovely friend  Loli for teaching me  a little Spanish  too
mwahhh xx :)


 It seems I have another unexpected big family party to plan again
 here  for thirteen of us  for next week. Raiding recipe books
 and racking  my one remaining brain cell !

Time flies card

Good morning everyone, it's Saturday again and time for yet another
'LIM' challenge once more.This time the theme is............................
 
ROUND AND ROUND
"For this you may use any image which implies this movement...
ie things with wheels or which move in this manner etc or in 
fact cards with some moving parts."

Luckily I had an idea pop into my head straight away, ( oh how
I wish that happened everytime lol ! ). Anyway I hope yiou approve.
Have a lovely weekend whatever you have planned, I plan to relax
after such a busy time lately.......heck I may even make another card :)


 ps. I made some lovely pizza bread  as a starter for our last week's
 Summer 'do'.  Soo wish I had taken a photo now as it was really
 yummy.I put lots of Mozzarella in mine and it was oozing in the middle.
 Babies crying & everyone needed feeding so no time alas.
 I noticed it was gone within a short time too,( and it was  a massive
 loaf !)


I served it with some homegrown ripe tomatoes, garlic ,
 olive oil and basil as a dip...just squash it a bit too. Recipe 
on Pinterest if you want it btw. Now added a pic below,
is your mouth watering lol !!!! link for recipe here.


Beyondthefringe freebie old digi and some TH distress ink Antique Linen,
 computerized sentiment.
