Beautiful Card Designs Made Easy

October 04, 2014

My very best wishes ...

Hi Everybody,

This is the end of a very busy week for me and my apologies for no Friday Freebie this week.

But today I have had a lovely "Workshop" with Spectrum Noir pens and pencils in Bristol and the ladies in the class made me feel really welcome.

Tomorrow I head for home and I am looking forward to sleeping in my own bed.

I have a mountain of washing to do ... and I hate with a vengeance ... Ironing  ... any volunteers ????

So this card  uses the Bow Couture from the Spellbinders Victorian Collection and it sends all my best wishes to every one who has supported me over the last few weeks ... watched the shows ... emailed in to the shows ... or written to me via another medium

Many thanks especially if you purchased the whole collection to make the dies a complete sell out in the first two days and a runaway success

My very best to all the ladies who have attended both of the workshops that I have done.

I will be home tomorrow and hopefully back to normal for a little while and looking forward to my Wednesday Class with the lovely Brenda and Mary.

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

  11. Hi Christina
    I'm glad that the new dies were a resounding success. They are all gorgeous, and the samples that you did were absolutely gorgeous. Thanks for all the hard work you have done on our behalf. I would be glad of a rest as well if I managed to do all that you did plus a class in Bristol at the end. Sorry, I'm not volunteering to do your ironing as I hae it as well.

  20. Oooooh what a very pretty card, love that die you have used. I am not going to volunteer to do your ironing, hate ironing, I tend to buy wash and wear these days. BUT I do have some things that I iron. Enjoy your own bed, a lot of us know there is no place like your own bed for a restful sleep.

  21. Iron! isn't that one of those four letter words. HA HA. My bro has to spend nights out of town for work and when he posts how nice it is to be sleeping in his own bed, I ask him, whose bed have you been sleeping in anyway. He gets a kick out of it. Your card, as always, is beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
