AM I LATE OR EARLY?

Hi Everyone

Happy Thursday .. .. but who stole Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday?!?!?!?

This week has just flown by!!!

So I am not sure if I am late (because I didn't manage to post anything yesterday) or early for today?  But either way I am here now with a little share. This is quickly becoming one of my favourite Penny Black floral images.




This used:

Image:  Penny Black "4239K" Scented Message
Sentiment:  Personal Impressions "Everyday Words - Happy Birthday"
Backing Papers:  Papermania "Hampstead Collection"
Distress Inks:  Tattered Rose, Victorian Velvet, Old Paper, Bundled Sage, Peeled Paint
My Trusty Sewing Machine
X-Cut Corner Rounder Punch
Josy Rose:  Nail Heads
White Gel Pen
Button and Ribbons from the Stash Box

I had almost forgotten how much I enjoy painting with distress inks.  

Time now for a quick coffee before getting settled into a huge stack of wedding work.  

Hopefully then chance for a blog catch up tonight.

Have a great day!!

Love

    Stunning card Jules as always. Great image and stitching and I love the effect of the distress inks. Good luck with your wedding work - I know you've been extremely busy lately. Have a lovely day!

    Gorgeous card Jules! The heart was a toughy on this one but I think I found it - inside one of the squares just above the ribbon?

    Good one!

    Hi Jules, I do like this stamp as well, it looks very pretty in this colourway. The heart is almost invisible but I found it - very clever use of pattern. Pauline xx

    Wonderful card Jules, I adore that image and the colouring with DIs is divine! Snigger, I cheated and hopped back today to see if anyone said where the heart was 'cos I felt I'd be such a Dumbo saying yet again I couldn't find it :) You're getting sneaky - tee, hee.

    lovely card, Jules. I like that stamp too - the subtle colouring of the distress inks suits it. I also like the way you have placed the ribbon. Elizabeth xx

    gorgeous card - love that stamp. I'm not a stamper per se, so it's always nice to see a stamp that's 'new' to me...
