Friday Freebie - Birds of a Feather

Hi Everybody,

Todays offering is a very special set and this is no April Fool joke.

The set consists of an embossing folder, a large stamp image of a peacock, with sentiments too, and some beautiful papers, that include some gold glitter paper.

A real treat for you to play with and the magazine will give you lots of ideas on how to use the pack.

You will also find some toppers in the paper pack so that you can finish off the cards in style.

So is this a set that you would like to have in your collection ???

Then  all you need to do is leave me a comment at the end of this post with your FULL NAME.
From those comments one name will be chosen as the winner and announced in a blog post over the weekend.

Be sure to come back and check if it is you who has won. It doesn't matter where you live or if you have won before, just add you name to the list.

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

 

Ruby Update

Hi Everybody,

Just to let you know that Ruby has had her operation and is now back at home. Here she has sneaked into the bed and is now having a snooze.

We can't go out to walk yet as the wound is still open and I don't want to get it infected. Next week she goes back for a check up to make sure everything is doing ok.

Then we need to wait patiently for the results from the biopsy and then hopefully we will be back to normal.

At present she has a surgical vest on to protect the neck area as it is far too handy to scratch at it.
So fingers crossed and we will be back on the beach and the woods, and more of her favourite walks within the next two weeks 

More tomorrow ...

With Sympathy ...

Hi Everybody,

These are the type of cards that none of us like to make and hope that we don't need that often. 

But when we do then this is a really elegant style with black flowers on a a simple background

I have used Washi Tape along the side and bottom of the card front as neutral kind of border  and inside the circle cut out I have added a light blend of inks 

The Sun Ray Cut out is from an really old die that was from Card Making Magic and it was free with a magazine years ago.

The sentiment is from the new die and stamps sets at Craft Stash and I trimmed down the sides to fit the front of the card.

Small black sequins have been used to add a subtle kind if interest and to complete the look and this card is now ready to send when the occasion arises. 

More tomorrow ...
