Good evening!

One day early in the morning the next late evening. No order of anything around here. Spent the day in a meeting and are really tired. But hopefully I will soon have some meaningful to do during the days. Not even I can spend the whole days making cards - in the end it would be boring. Well I have to wait and see what will come out of this meeting held today but now do the social insurance office and the employment office work for me for a while. I've been running to their meetings and answering all papers they have sent in while I have been on sick leave. Time to get a life and get away from home a little more. Have been home for more than four years now, time to start living. :)

So the reason for this posting, another card of course. A really simple one, but I did follow the sketch at Everybody-Art-Challenge perfectly. I just wasn't in the mood for tons of decorations. This dp from Bearly Mine is one of my favourites all time and I could use it all the time probably. Didn't want to cover it up too much, so plain and simple it is.

Have to buy some more of that webby thing from BunnyZoe. Kind of have run out of it now. I gives such lovely cover up without covering everything up. :) The other ribbon is from Wild Orchid Craft and started of as white. I kind of gave it a cover with my Aquamarkers and it got a lovely brown shade. It's actually the same pen I've used for the colouring of the lovely Tilda from last years Christmas collection from Magnolia. One pen only used here. I'm so proud of me! :)I had the patient to finally wait a little longer for the colours to actually dry, and then go over it again. Much more effective, but very stressful as I want it to dry fast. You know so you can go on with the colouring...

The reason for this sepia colour then? Well, Passion for Promarkers has this week the theme of "Old photos" so it's up to you to chose if you want to go black and white or sepia. I am also entering this card to the challenge at "Just Magnolia" where the theme this week is "everything goes with the option of beads". I don't know if my half pearls counts as pearls but it was optional so in it goes.

You don't forget that the new designer papers from Bearly Mine Designs goes on line on Friday 12th, do you? It's called Christmas Dreams and is filled with wonderful papers for all those Christmas cards that you have to do. This paper is from another set though called Christmas Delight.

 OK, I better stop talking and get this thing posted and then go to bed. Tomorrow it's time to see a new doctor. A bit nervous but I chosed it myself, and I really need to get a few blood tests done, and o boy do I hate that or what? Feel sick just thinking about it. Didn't get better when the nurse I was talking to and who will do the bloody thing to me sounded a bit confused. Just what I need to feel calm. I'll be back if I survive this appointment. ;)

Take care each and every one of you!
Hugs,
Marie

Ett superfint kort! Jag tycker det blir så fint med sepia men har aldrig provat det själv, det skulle vara kul att testa.
Hoppas AF, FK o DU kommer fram till nån bra lösning som funkar för dig, håller tummarna!! Lite avundsjuk är jag allt - *vill också* - men är framförallt verkligen superglad för din skull!!
Önskar dig en riktigt bra helg!
