NO MR FROGGIE :-(

Hi Everyone

Well it would seem that Mr Froggie perhaps has access to a laptop and has read from my blog that I am after a photograph of him because he hasn't made an appearance at all today :-(

He must be camera shy.

Perhaps because it hasn't been quite so sunny and warm today he didn't feel the need for a quick shower under my hosepipe!!

I hope he hasn't gone to live somewhere else!!

Anyway round to my share of the day.

All normal stuff finished for the day I decided to have a little play tonight and this is what I came up with:





This used:

Backing Papers:  DCWV "Old World Stack"
Image:  PaperArtsy "HP1004EZ"
Sentiment:  Pink Petticoat
Go Kreate:  Concentric Frilly Square #3
My Trust Sewing Machine
Pinking Shears
Sticky back pearls
Some more of my Sister's lovely fabric snippets

I was given some of my lovely Sister's fabric to have a play with last week and this fine mesh is just gorgeous.  Apparently it is "as cheap as chips" from the local market so I will be getting a little bit more than a snippet piece!!  Plus I am reliably informed that it comes in lots of colours too!!!  LOL!!!

Oh dear.  I feel another bit of re-organisation coming on in readiness for new supplies moving into the craft pod!! (or moving into the spare bedroom).  I pity any guests coming to stay with us because their drawer space for storing things is slowly disappearing!!  I am going to have to just ask people to stay for one night so they don't have to bring much with them!!  LOL!!!

Well I had better get going.  My fish and chips will be ready soon.

Enjoy what remains of Friday and have a good weekend everyone.

Love

    Ah, I hope Mr Froggie comes back tomorrow for you.

    I know exactly what you mean about spare drawer space disappearing. I really must have a big clear out as I've filled all bar one little bedside drawer in our spare room and there's quite a few, lol!

    Love the card Jules. The colours are really rich and regal. Love the tulle too.

    Hugs

    Fabulous card Jules - love the deep purple and the netting. Your stitching is amazing - it's not easy to stitch around a wavy shape but you've done it brilliantly.
    Have a happy weekend - hugs, Sylvia x

    I really like this one Jules for the colours you've chosen. The snatch of net looks lovely & makes a super embellie. Love the sentiment too. Froggies are so unpredictable as I've haven't seen my one for weeks, but I know he's lurking in the pond somewhere. Better luck for a piccie next time.
