Haven't blog since Saturday,I've been stripping wall paper and typing cv's. I'm applying for a display job at the local garden centre. The job is full time but I know I would really love it. They have amazing Christmas displays ,that I would be in charge of creating. It would be great to actually do a job I'm trained for.
My son Sam got the part time job at Pro Cook he applied for,starts next week and his girlfriend has got a job at a top men's wear shop in Chester. They say things coming in threes ,so hopefully I'll join them.
It's results day for A S and A levels today, so big fingers crossed for the two of them.
Now to my card,I'm getting in to my florals, although you all seemed to love my BBQ Teddy. The stamp is pansy, a clear woodwre stamp. It does have a lovely verse too, that's for the inside. I've coloured with promarkers,added yellow stickles to the centre and blobs of glossy accents.The bp is hunkydory and the leaves bazil green paper punched with a L-Em.com fern punch.I added some gems, these where originally clear,coloured with promarkers for a perfect colour match.
challenges entered:
Divas by design : followed the sketch
I love promarkers : gardens
paper pretties : square card
The weather is still playing silly buggers , pardon my language, here in the uk, not bad here this morning but yesterday was so humid I got another bad headache and then the biggest rain I have ever seen. It came right over the gutters, pouring down the windows , the extension door leaked again soaking the carpet and wall paper because the rain pelted down in a side ways direction.
happy crafting. janex

BeautifulJane, love the image....great colours and layout.xxx
I was in the cafe at the local garden centre when the heavens opened. Would be great if you could get the job at yours.I'm sorry you didn't know about the workshops at PS. Sheena was holding them twice a years to start - just once now she is getting so busy. I'll give you the heads up next time. You'd love it I'm sure.
I'm enjoying your floral cards.This pansy is coloured beautifully and I love that fern punch. Will have to look out for that at the Donington show this Saturday - if not online somewhere. I NEED it.
