AGAPANTHUS CLUSTER

Hi Everyone

I hope your day has been good.

Mine has been full of "happy couples" making decisions and choices on their wedding stationery .. .. it is so lovely to meet up with them and hear all their exciting plans. 

There was just time for a quick make in between appointments and here it is:






This used:

Image:  Stampendous!  "P107" Agapanthus Cluster
Sentiment:  Penny Black "Critter Party" Clear Stamp Set
Backing Papers:  Pink Petticoat
Distress Ink:  Bundled Sage
Woodware Circle Punch
My Trusty Sewing Machine
Cord and buttons from the Stash Box

So that is me for today.

If you are struggling to find the heart on today's card then just give me a shout LOL!!!

I cleared the dining room table of all things crafty today ahead of my first couple arriving only to find that there is still a Christmas table cloth gracing the table!!  As it is past twelfth night does that mean I have to leave it on all year now?   Oh I hope not!!

A table cloth with tiny holly leaves and berries looks lovely in December but will look a little strange come the spring LOL!!!

Have a great evening everyone.

Don't forget the ProMarker giveaway from Handy Hippo ends at midnight tomorrow.  If you want to try your luck then the post you need is here.

Love

    A fabulous card Jules, love the image and the neutral colours are perfect :)
    I took my trimmings down the other day and found a star that I'd attached to the stairs! I'm leaving it up all year now, I did hear somewhere that leaving just one crimbo trimming up all year was good luck!! Hmmmm, we'll see :D

    Fabby card Jules! I did have to look for the heart for a while (wink). And, thanks to you I almost got run over outside Sainsburys yesterday. Bought my copy of QCME and couldn't wait to see the article so ripped the cello bag open and raced to page 62 in the middle of the car park :)) Di xx
