Lace and/or ribbon

Morning and hello!

Another week is on the go and half way there. The kids last week of summer vacation, on Tuesday it's time for the school work to begin again. As always I miss the routins when it's school, work, practise, sleep, school, work etc. But it's nice to have these few weeks doing whatever comes to mind too. I have three weeks left of my work practise and then I have no clue what I should be doing. That feels less good, and at the moment I wonder why I am trying at all. Pain all the time and I just feel I can do nothing, good days I rule the world! LoL But at the moment I don't. I am a bit low at the moment and have trouble getting things done and feel the joy in what I do. Nothing like sharing is there? Sorry to knock you down like this summer morning.

We have a new challenge up for you over at the Paper Shelter this week and the theme is set to Lace and/or ribbon so either one we want to see on your fabby creations. That's a really easy one isn't it?

Challenge prize badge

As always the Paper Shelter is sponsoring with either three digis if you play with a different brand and a $30 gift voucher if you play with any TPS product.

I have gone for a Christmas/winter card this time and used the image Winter blossom. I like that one. It got really cold look and paired up with the blue dp and the vellum it became even better. The designer papers are an really old pack from Dovecraft. I have really loved this snowflake paper but now it's almost gone, which is good as I can get something new, but still. The vellum is embossed with a snow flake embossing plate or what you call them. Not used in a long time either.



A few spellbinder dies, flowers, pearls and odd bits and bobs. Of course some lace and ribbon from different places and the card was finished. Came together quite nicely and is the first card I made in my almost finished craft room/office. Still miss real working light and a few pieces to put some need to have infront of me stuff on the wall, things that make it work smoothly you know. Slowly getting there.

In the meanwhile I wish you a wonderful week and I see you back here at Tuesday if not before. Still have a few unshown pieces from before the summer, but I might need them later on. LoL

Love n hugs
Marie
