Hey Gullfriend

Good morning



We've seen some pretty wet and windy weather here, normally we go out and about on Saturday if hubby isn't at the match but it was so miserable yesterday that we had a lazy day indoors.

I did make a card though, playing with those MFT gulls again

I'm going to enter it at Inkspirational where the theme is windows



This was so quick and simple to make... The fence is made from a digital paper ... You know when you have those paper pads and there are always some that you will never use? Well, I turn them over and print digital paper that I will use... The paper is better quality than copy paper and it uses up all those sheets.



You may wonder what that gull is so smug about, Well I have some pretty exciting news... We will be flying off again next month to The Netherlands to visit my dear blog friend Stella! You all know that my hubby is a huge Everton FC supporter and they have been drawn to play Stella's home team Groningen who of course are supported by Stella's family! So the guys get to go to the match and Stella and I will have fun!

That's it for now - Wishing you all a wonderful day

Till soon

The boys and girls outing sounds fabulous....Football and crafting and fun...Way to go! Such a fun card today and loving those stamps, the expressions are priceless. Great idea to print on the papers from the pads too. Yes very wet and windy up here yesterday too and although dry at the moment the rain doesn't look far away x

Hi Ros...your wings must be getting tired by now...all that flying around! Have a rest like your gullfriend! Great card! Clever idea to use the reverse of those papers you dislike...very clever in fact...must remember that one! Have a good week.xx

Oh bad luck on the weather - it's been glorious here. But great luck on the football draw and you'll get to visit Stella! I love your seagull card , the fence is wonderful (great tip on printing) and the aperture would make it a good link up to Inkspirationals' challenge????

This is just darling, Ros! You can make any kind of card--always inspiring! I am so, so jealous you're going to visit Stella! I'll be with the 2 of you in spirit--my sweet friends!

What a great CAS design Roz and for some reason that gull always makes me smile. Thank you for the wonderful tip about using the reverse of papers - I never would have thought of that. I hope you enjoy your trip to the Netherlands!

Aren't you the gadabout, flying off to The Netherlands now? But, what fun! And what a CUTE card! Love anything that makes me smile, and this sure does that. Your sky is perfect and so is that weather worn fence. Good idea for using up those papers!
