MONDAY'S MALE

Hi Everyone

Happy Monday!

I hope your week is getting off to a good start.

Lovely sunshine again here .. .. and Mr Heart has a few days of annual leave he is taking .. .. so he dragged me off to get plants for the garden.  Back home again now in time to post my creation before heading off to Mum.




This used:

Image:  DigiStamp Boutique  "Garden Bench"
Sentiments:  DigiStamp Boutique "A4 quick print plus - Retirement"  (or part of the sentiment bundle here)
Backing Paper:  First Edition Papers "Sweet Nothings"
X-Cut Punch:  Corner Rounder
Martha Stewart Punch:  Traditional Scallop
ProMarkers and Chalk
Twine and Charm from my Crafty Stash Box

and that is it!!

Because the retirement sentiments come as an A4 sheet "and" single images I was able to add the sentiment directly next to my image .. .. .. and also add a whole vertical line of my second sentiment directly onto the backing paper.  

Love the sentiments .. .. especially the one on my backing paper.  Almost makes you want to retire .. .. .. but not yet .. .. I still have too many goals I want to achieve before I hang my hat up!!!

Catch you again soon.

  1. A super retirement card Jules, such a fabulous image and great sentiments. My husband has taken early retirement recently - this would have been perfect for him, he is certainly relaxing!
    I hope your Mum is still doing well.

  4. Great card layout and the image is just right. A beautiful sunny day has just ended in a really heavy and prolonged shower here - that will make the grass grow!!

  5. What a lovely card, those sentiments are wonderful ! But I guess, women never really "retire", we're still busy at home, in the garden, etc.... :o) Enjoy the sunshine ! Enny

  9. A fab retirement card, Jules, and what great sentiments! Everyone I know who's retired always says they are busier now than they ever were at work - but they enjoy what they're doing so much more!
