HUBBY'S TEAM HAVE WON!!!

Hi Everyone

Wow .. .. Hubby went to watch his football team this afternoon and the game has just finished (I have been listening on the radio) and they have actually won!!  Crikey .. .. the first time they have won at home this year!!

So whilst Hubby as been away I have made yet again "one" card for sharing and have spent the rest of the time taking more photographs for the website.  It isn't that there is going to be loads to show to begin with .. .. it is just getting everything set up right and getting some decent pictures.  It also feels a little bit of a race against time as the batteries in my camera can only take so much hammering LOL!!!

Anyway, here is my share for today




This used:

Image:  Basic Grey "Two Scoops/Swirlie"
Backing Paper:  Kraft Card (Pink Petticoat) Pattern Paper (Aimee Asher)
Marianne Design Creatables "LR0115" Butterfly
Distress Inks:  Tea Dye, Brushed Corduroy and Frayed Burlap
Martha Stewart Punch:  Embossed Zig Zag
Nestabilities: Standard Circles Large, Classic Scalloped Circles Large
Woodware Punches:  Daisy
Clear Embossing Powder
Glamour Dust
Brad and Ribbon from the Stash Box

I clear embossed the swirls onto a circle of plain white card and then used every brown distress ink I own to bring it to life. 
Off now to do a bit more.  Only one more week of manicness (is that a word?!??!) and then the house can be transformed back into a home.  At the the moment the dining room is the wedding samples area, the craft pod is the general makes area and the spare bedroom is the wedding fayre storeroom and photo taking den.  Good job my lovely hubby is so easy going LOL!!

Back tomorrow with my snippets and hopefully a blog hopping catch up to see what I have been missing.  All work and no hopping makes Jules a dull girl!!!!!

I do appreciate everyone still calling by even though I haven't had time for return visits.

Have a lovely evening everyone.

Love
