tangled flower thank you cards

I have been away for a couple of days for my Birthday 

 with Anna my Daughter. 

We had a lovely time Osprey spotting in Wales, 

and we had some gorgeous weather. 

 I took some card blanks and my Micron pens away with me. 

Below are three of the thank you cards I produced. I hope you like them I am hooked on tangling.

Anyway folks I hope you are enjoying this sunshine. 

Thanks for looking at my blog, I hope you all have a good week.

I then decided to draw some squares on some lovely watercolour paper my colleague Becky gave me 

 I am going to use these designs to make some cards.

Jubilee

Hello folks I'm back blogging.

 I hope you have all had a good Jubilee weekend?

 I worked on Saturday which was fun with Becky.

 Then off on Sunday which was a family day.

 Monday and Tuesday in work, which was good.

 It is not many people who can go to work and play. 

With it being the Jubilee weekend I decided to do a Red White and Blue demonstration.

 Indigo Blu stamps and some Anita's promotion stamps.

Bank Holiday Monday

Hello and thank you for visiting my Blog today  

I hope you have had a good Bank Holiday Monday. 

I was in work at The Craft Shop at
Lady Green Garden Centre.

It was quite busy with people buying Haberdashery and wool this morning. 

This afternoon I decided I was going to demonstrate the
Michael Powell Urban Stamps, 

which are a docrafts product. 

I stamped with Memento Ink and painted them with
Tim Holtz Distress Markers.

SHORE THING PRODUCT NO : MPL 907210

Distress Pen colours used Bundled Sage and Barn Door

a mixture of Distress Pen colours

Background made with Crushed Olive and Chipped Sappire Distress inkI

I am very pleased with the results I used the Distress Pens 

with a water brush and found them very easy to use and blend.

WOYWW Box Clever

Hi I have not been to WOYWW or blogging for a few weeks, but just thought I would share a project with you that I made a few weeks ago.

If you have not been to my blog before, Welcome. If you are wondering what WOYWW is. If you have not already been to this blog then pop over to Julia’s stamping ground and see what everyone is talking about, and visit some fantastic peoples work from all around the world.

I got this box at an ATC meet and fund raiser last August.

At the time I did not know what I was going to use it for

or what I was going to do with it.

I hope you like what I did?

Using Tim Holtz tissue tape I covered the box.

I then coloured the box with a selection of Distress Inks

and then decorated it with stamped images which I think look great.

My distress inks look great in it too.

BUT

For a few weeks now I seem to have lost my MOJO.

So with this in mind, I thought instead of my Distress Inks

being hidden away in the box.

I decided to have a tidy up in my craft

space and make some storage for my ink pads

and distress stains.

Next to each ink pad is a piece of blending foam with the

name of the ink printed with my label maker.

The shelves are made from some Ikea CD racks I bought a while back.

So now I just need to find my Mojo and get back to crafting. So this is

what is on My work space this week ZILCH.

I do hope my MOJO will come back this week.

I will let you know next week.

Thank you all for popping by I hope you have a great week
