Spring Time-Lucky Save

 Morning and I have a card to share with an image that almost ended up in the bin but the more I looked at it the more I liked it lol and we altered the clocks for Springtime too-what do you think ?

The current printer loads from the bottom and comes out above but comes out printed on reverse so if you use glossy paper you load it upside down-so when using ordinary printer card you have to remember which way you loaded the paper which obviously I misjudged!!!

NOW I printed out the pocket watch image I won from Polka Doodles,then printed out the 

Wild Flower Blossoms I won from Jan's Digis but didn't reverse the paper so over printing!!!

Actually quite liked the effect so went with it and coloured the flowers with promarkers and left the pocket watch as is. 

Strips of paper from Evening Blooms paper pad from The Paper Boutique, and the stamped sentiment is from AALL&Create

Happy Birthday

 Morning and what a week-last Sunday morning John got up complaining he had something in his eye-nothing-then he kept seeing a shadow and floaters,by the time we went to bad he had coloured flashes-not good.

Monday got an emergancy app at the Diabetic eye clinic was not concerned at all,bored girl taking photos told us to ring optician.Emergancy app at optician on Tuesday revealed (even before an examination)a detached retina gave us a letter to take straight to the eye hospital who I cannot fault and an app for an op on Thursday so now just have to wait and see if sight is in anyway damaged.

 

I have a card  which I made for our youngest  son using a pic of  his dog(she is an absolutely beautiful dog with not a bad bone in her body,never heard her growl even when ours do to her-she just walks away) to give to our daughter Helen on her birthday.The stamped sentiment was from Pink Frog and the background was recycled packaging which I thought worked with the pic.

Tissue Box Holder

 Morning and the new challenge at Pearly Sparkles is  "No Cards Allowed/Anything but a Card"

 I have made a tissue box cover using  dies from Spellbinders with Cosmic Shimmer Gold Gilding Polish round all the edges.

The Indigo Blu Butterflies were stamped onto my boiled papers I made a few years ago and finally used!-fussy cut and put onto 3-D foam.

Black pearls and lace from stash-black ribbon and bow was recycled -wrapped round new pyjamas.

Done and quite pleased how it turned out.
