It's week 67 and one layer card week ( oh my!) and we have to...
USE THREE STAMPS
I used a BOBEA digi image which happens to have three stamps
in the set. I made a distressed ink ( Antique Linen) panel using
masks to cover the images. I also embossed a couple of lines
either side of the inked panel too.I then coloured the animals
using Copics/Promarkers.I love the cute expressions on these little
animals.
Today I did something a bit silly.....well a LOT silly !!! I managed
to lose £50!!! I withdrew it from a cash machine outside
Waitrose then went inside shopping. I realised I didn't have the
money when I came to pay ( luckily I still had enough cash in
my pocket).So I either left it in the cash machine( horror of
horrors) or I lost it once inside the shop.The shop haven't found
it and it wasn't in the machine when I looked shortly afterwards.
My OH said it probably went to someone who really NEEDED
it today. I hope that's the case too, really feel so stupid now. I
have my brother on my mind today as he finds out tomorrow if
he can have the op he needs or if he is just too unwell ( because of his
breathing) to have it.We already know he is at high risk even if does
have it....but he may have no choice really.
That's why my mind was elsewhere I think....either that or I am
really losing my mind!!!
ps. Updated to add I DID get my money back ! I left it in the cash
machine and some kind lady ( angel) handed it in to the shop nearby :)
A gorgeous card,love the images.xxx
ReplyDeleteIf you didn't take the money, the ATM may have swallowed it again, that happened to me once when I couldn't see where the slot was that the money should have emerged from, I spotted it just in time to see the money disappearing!
ReplyDeleteI would ask the bank if that's what happened. Let's hope so!
This card is fab... I have so much admiration for people who can manipulate digi images!!
Thanks again.

ReplyDeleteAnother lovely card Viv, love these images they are so cute!
ReplyDeletePerhaps someone saw you at the ATM, followed you and took it from your pocket. Hopefully it was someone in need. I hope the news is positive tomorrow Viv, what a worry for you all.
Sending you hugs

Oh Viv - your thoughts must have been elsewhere, and I'm not surprised. I hope your Brother's results are good ones.
ReplyDeleteLove your card by the way - the images are fabulous.
Hugs, Sylvia xx
VIv I know how you feel, my 3rd brother has been very ill for months and I worry about him too, with so much on your mind it's no wonder you don't know what you are doing.
ReplyDeleteHowever, worry or no you still create the most wonderful cards, I'm sorry I haven't time to comment on each, but I have caught up with them ALL> :)
Take care hope things get better soon

Hope you get good news about your brother, yes this would be very distracting. Don't knock yourself out about it, it can happen and does to just about all of us, with me I have left my card in the machine!Had to have it cancelled and get a new one. It can happen.
ReplyDeleteYour card is so beautiful and classy looking, humorous too, and that my friend is a very good combination!
a gorgeous card with great images
ReplyDeleteGreat card and images used!
ReplyDeleteWell Viv - I do hope that someone in need ended up with your money - wish them luck and then let it go! My thoughts are with your brother - I do hope the results are what you all wish for.
ReplyDeleteLove the car but how do you find the imagination to keep going with all that's going on? I have everything crossed for the family.
Your card is so clever Viv - I love the window effect. So sorry to hear you lost the money - isn't it frustrating when something like happens? Do contact the bank and see if they can help. I do feel for you Viv, you have so much on your mind at the moment. Do take care. Hugs, Vicky x
