Happy Saturday .. .. and happy weekend!!!
My intention was to post this card last night .. .. but it took me so long to make that it was nearly dark by the time I had finished and once that happens the electric light in my craft pod makes my work change colour .. .. so I had to wait until this morning to make sure I definitely liked it.
Things always look better in the lovely light of a sparky new day don't you think?
This used:
Image: Penny Black "2883J" Whiskers and Fur
Sentment: Penny Black "3459D" Wrap a Hug (the happy birthday part of this stamp was masked off)
Backing Papers: First Edition Papers "Desert Blooms"
Sizzix Thinlits Die: "659133" Moroccan Card Front
My Trusty Sewing Machine
ProMarkers
Twine from My Crafty Stash Box
and that is my share for today
It didn't take a long time because the card was difficult to make .. .. my problem was that my crafty stash is scattered all over the house at the moment.
Two major projects I keep unpacking to work on in the kitchen because I need lots of space to spread out. Stacks of various work in the dining room and then general crafting in my craft pod .. .. and it would seem that whatever I wanted to use was located somewhere else. Who would have thought making a card could burn off so many calories? I ran up and down the stairs far too many times LOL!!
So I think a major clear up to get my brain in order is the next project and then I will take over the kitchen again for crafty purposes. I can't believe we don't have sparkly sandwiches sometimes!!
I'll catch you again tomorrow with my snippets.
Have a great day .. .. and I hope you find a little bit of craft time for yourself.
Love

Hi Jules, it's been a while since I had a chance to pop round and see what you're up to. I love the new blog design! Great picture of you too. Your card is so pretty and I like that die behind the PB kitty. Loved the colors, of course, and the sweet sentiment. Perfet for this particular image. The stitching you have in spots is so nice, and of course the heart charm on the twine bow! Found it right off the bat. Good luck with ordering your supplies to where you can find them. I'm trying to do the same thing. I know I'm going to lose stuff that I've had in piles, cause I'll never remember where I put it! Heaven forbid I start making labels!!! Hugs & Happy weekend. TFS
Hi Jules,
Oh! I do love this card and that cat is just too cute!!
Also love your new profile photo.
Hope you are having a lovely weekend. xx
Hi Jules, as always gorgeous! Love the design and super cute image - my stash isn't all over the house, but it is all over the craft room and I reckon adds 20 minutes simply 'searching' to each card! Hugs Carole Z X

You are to cute and funny Jules, not sure sparkly sandwiches would be good for you or Mr. Heart! lol I love this adorable card and the sentiment is just perfect! Yes, everything always looks good in a sunny new day. Hugs, Brenda
Gorgeous and so cute!!
Beautiful card Jules - love it so much ♥ I find it really hard when my cardmaking stuff is scattered in a couple of rooms as I get frustrated and grumpy. In fact, I have just spent a couple of hours sorting my stuff out so I'm alot happier now :-)
