New Home

Hi there!

How was your weekend? I hope you are staying warm ... it's very cold and icy here
I got to play a little yesterday ... Got out my Gelatos and made a few cards ... One is for my DH's brother and his wife ... they just moved down to Dorset 



I'm using my new City Scape die again even though they've actually moved to the countryside Lol!


I used 2 different colour Gelatos mixing them with water and then I splattered both Picket Fence and Brushed Pewter distress paints over the top once the Gelatos were dry


The sentiment is computer generated and all the embellishments were from my left over box

I'm entering this at The Mixed Media Card Challenge where the theme is NEW


And leaving the best till last - I got another beautiful card in the mail today together with some chocolate!!


I love Lindt chocolate Thank you so much Manuela!!

Have yourselves a good day and thanks so much for looking in

Till soon

Your card is really beautiful, Ros--love using that label die for the window! You've made me want to use my Gelatos. Such a perfect card made for your BD with the kitty cat in the corner & the chocolate looks yummy!
