Hi Everyone
Sorry .. .. I am late again.
Hubby came home with a new family member that needed welcoming .. .. no .. .. nothing animal orientated - a courgette plant that needed to be made to feel at home in our garden. We have grown green courgettes before but these are YELLOW!!! Oh well we can give them a go.
The courgette seeds we set were rather disappointing so we have sown some more .. so we could have a glut of courgettes plants now!! LOL!!!
So on a new home theme .. .. a new home card
This used:
Image: Not really sure. I bought it at the NEC from a stand called "Butterfly Kisses" but it was handed to me just in a cellophane bag .. .. no packaging, no name, no maker .. .. and I can't find it on their website either.
Sentiment: Hobby Art Clear "CS016D" General Greetings
Backing Papers: Pink Petticoat
Woodware Punches: Flowers
ProMarkers
Chalk
Brad, charm and ribbon from the stash box
So I have a complaint.
I left all of my ironing out last night along with a list of the blog buddies who also requested a call from the ironing fairy. I can only assume that she liked the sound of your places better than mine because she left without doing a darn thing!! You can't get the staff these days!!
My time has also been taken up talking to one very excited Sister. She is off to see Take That tomorrow at Manchester. I bet she won't sleep tonight or tomorrow as she will be so excited. Bless!!
Thanks for calling by .. .. I will catch you again tomorrow.
Love
Your card is gorgeous Jules,love the image.Pity you didn't live closer....I love ironing.xxx

Hi Jules, this is so lovely. Very pretty candy stripe papers and gorgeous image. Great faux stitching and cute little key. Well she did'nt turn up here either, maybe she was out on the tiles. Ooh! a yellow courgette, hope it thrives hun.

Gorgeous card again Jules; love that stamp, paper and the little key charm. The ironing fairy didn't come here either - think she should be sacked! I'm going to see Take That on Wednesday! Tickets were my christmas present from my daughter and SIL. Can't wait!! Looking forward to your email! xx

I was hoping the ironing fairy would have called here but guess she must have been busy else where. Never mind may be she'll call tomorrow while I'm at work.
