MUCH GIFTED

Hi Everyone

Here at last .. .. a little later than I intended .. .. but hey .. ..it is a Bank Holiday weekend you know and it has started already!!  Woo hoo!!!  Life slows down a little as of now .. .. well for a few days anyway.

Not sure what our weather is going to be doing but hopefully it will be nice enough to get a bit of gardening done .. .. and that is all that is planned.  Everything else will just happen when it does.  I love weekends like these .. .. especially long ones LOL!!! 

So round to my share for today.  A little on the bright side I'm afraid!!






This used:

Image:  Penny Black "3212K" Much Gifted
Backing Papers:  DCWV Citrus Stack
Sentiment:  Quickutz Katie Alphabet
Sizzix Die:  Stars #2
Josy Rose:  Nail Heads
ProMarkers
Crystal Stickles
Cord and Button from the stash box

I brought my Quickutz out of retirement today .. .. including an upper and lower case alphabet set .. .. I can remember being a bit disappointed about how fiddly the letters were to attach when I bought it many, many, many years ago and how I used to get glue everywhere  .. .. but of course now I have quickie glue pens!!  Yay!!!  Much, much easier and definitely going to be put back into use more regularly.

Have a great Bank Holiday weekend everyone.

Catch you again tomorrow.

Love

    I really LOVE this one!!! The papers and colours are bright, but not "garish" I think they go really well!!!

    Love this Duck image, he is a favourite!

    Oh yes the quickutz alpha can be tricky, but as you say some glue pens a, and a pair of tweezers too, can come in handy with positioning!
