Purr-fect Day

Hello there lovely people...

How has your week been? I've had a few crazy days ... I started to make a DT project on monday and try as I may it just wouldn't go right and it seemed that everything I touched fell to the floor ... I even broke a glass ... Tuesday was not a lot better - I did get the project done but then I managed to drop a whole box of neatly sorted sequins on the floor... Oh yeh, my hoover is sooo sparkly right now.

But my friend Pat came yesterday and it was a purr-fect day!
I made a start on some cards for friends of mine who have birthdays in September


I absolutely love the colour of the Sea Glass Avery Elle ink as I'm sure you've noticed, and I started by sponging a circle on my base card and then stencilling the stars with embossing paste and glitter


I cut out the circle for the front of my shaker and stencilled that too in sea glass ink ... same with the balloon but I used some new pink inks from Mama Elephant ... I love them!


The kitty is from Newton's Nook...

Thanks so much for popping in ... I hope you have a purr-fect day!

Cute, feminine & beautiful, Ros! I do so love your creations! Oh no--dropping sequins! I once had brads & eyelets all over the floor when the container lids opened--just had to laugh! I didn't vacuum them up, though--an hour or so later & they were more or less all back in place--LOL Hope you have a great day!

My oh my another amazing shaler card; [urr-fection :). I love that balloon die too. Fab idea to add stars on your baclground. LOVE it!

Your Hoover will be sparkling for ages. I sorted out a box months ago after I dropped it. Took me hours; yikes!

Is that ink pad from Avery Elle available in the UK? I can't find it here and I love that Sea Glass color.

Have a great evening!

The colors are divine! The little stars are so sweet in the background and the sparkly gold sentiment just makes me smile. So does that darling kitty. :-)
