THINKING OF YOU

Hi Everyone

I hope your week has been a good one.

We are all ready for the London Kids landing here tomorrow.  I can't wait.  My family all together for the first time since 2019 .. .. .. before all this mayhem of the last two years began.

Hope I can sleep tonight with all the excitement churning up inside!  I feel like a kid on Christmas Eve! LOL!!

I have added a new sketch to my Rectangular Sketch Library which you can find at the top of my blog .. .. and it looks like this.  Yesterday I actually learnt how to round the corners of my rectangles .. .. so that had to feature in my latest sketch:

and put to good use it "could" look like this .. .. but of course there are lots of options.




This used:

Image:  Woodware "JGS300" Going to Seed (love this stamp so much).
Sentiment:  Digistmp Boutique Clear Stamp Set - Sadly no longer trading
Backing Papers:  Simply Creative "Sweet Dreams"
X-Cut Corner Rounding Punch
Ribbon
Diamond Stickles
Promarkers for just a bit of subtle colouring
One solitary Nail Head
My Trusty Sewing Machine

So that is me for today.  

Hope everyone enjoys their weekend as much as I know I am going to.

Just hope the London Kids have a full tank of petrol to get them to me .. .. .. but I won't worry about whether they have enough to get them home again LOL!!!   Hopefully they won't have enough to get them to the end of the drive because I am happy to keep them in my little nest for as long as I possibly can.

  1. Hello Stranger! Very long time no see! But I noticed you dropped by my blog and so I thought I would drop by yours. Really in this age of Facebook and Insta, I hardly ever venture to blogs anymore and the only reason anyone ever comes to mine is usually because I am still entering challenges more to have a presence in Craftland than anything else. I have always loved your creations, Jules, and this one is super pretty. I have this stamp. I guess I should probably use it! Are you on Facebook by the way? You can find me here https://www.facebook.com/lesley.kollinsky.1 if you would like to be "friends" Hugs, Lesley

  7. That is definitely a pretty special stamp and I love how you have showcased it, fabulous colours and wonderful rounded corners on your stitching. I find it so hard to sew round corners like that. Hope you family weekend goes well xx
