THURSDAY'S CHILD

Hi Everyone

Happy Thursday!

Many thanks for your lovely comments on my white on white creation of yesterday .. .. I must admit it didn't look quite so bad this morning in the cold light of day! Perhaps it is just me and I am someone who likes to see some colour in her life!! LOL!!

So Thursday is the day that I share a card for a child . . . . a theme I am much more comfortable with .. . and one that will fit nicely into this month's Penny Black Saturday Challenge where they are celebrating their 8th birthday and would like to see a birthday card.  Simples!! 

The Penny Black Saturday Challenge was the very first challenge I ever entered when my blog started in 2009 .... gosh how time flies.... and it has always been a favourite.  In those days it used to be a weekly challenge.  I am pleased to say my cardmaking and photography has improved a little since then.  If you fancy a laugh here is my very first Penny Black Saturday entry.

Happy birthday ladies!!

Here is mine:




This used:

Image:  Penny Black "1445K" Partying
Sentiment:  Woodware Clear Magic Singles "FRS009" Make a Wish
Backing papers:  Tinker N Co "Little Cottage Cottons"
ProMarkers
My Trusty Sewing Machine
Ribbon and gems from my crafty stash box

and that it!  

Much easier to photograph than yesterday's creation .. .. though removing a huge fingerprint off the lens of the camera  probably helped!!  LOL!!!

Nearly time to put some more sketches designed and put into that library .. .. but not today.  Today is all about weddings with lots of ribbon tying and cutting out to be done. 

Just thought I would have a little break and post this up in-between missions.

Have a lovely day.  I hope you have some sunshine .. .. and the chance for a little crafting!!

Love Jules xx
