Playing with glue ...

Hi Everybody,

So after tidying my desk I found these flowers lying around and decided to use them on a really simple card.

I also had some coloured glue in my glue box that was going hard and I used that to trail some worm like creatures on my background.

While it was still wet I sprinkled it with gold glitter and then let it dry. 

Then before adding in the flowers and leaves I stamped the sentiment at the top. The panel has been added to a top folded card to make a quick and simple design.

This one has just had some glue dripped horizontally on a panel and sprinkled with clear glitter and gold sequins and allowed to dry.

I stamped the sentiment and rounded the corners off and added it to the base card for another quick and easy card.

I can't really say that I like either of them but at least it got to use up some of the stuff on my desk.

Don't forget to join me tomorrow on Craft Stash Facebook Live with the new collection Beautiful Baubles

More tomorrow ...

Who is the boss ???


 Hi Everybody,

This picture shows just how far we have come in the developing relationship between Ella and her doggy friends.

Ruby in the back is my Cocker Spaniel and the white dog in the front is Dougal my daughters Cockapoo.

And smack bang in the middle of them both is my new kitten Ella. She is twelve weeks old, feisty, tiny and definitely rules the roost.

Both dogs almost six years old and are so much bigger than her, and yet they are scared of her, and when she turns to face them they run away. 

It's quite funny really to watch how she has learned that she can chase them off. 

But in quieter moments they drink from the same dish, although not at the same time and when Dougal has gone home again Ella and Ruby will sit together.

Until that is Ella puts out a paw to touch Ruby, and then Ruby gets up and walks off.
But slowly we are getting there and I still hope that eventually they will be friends.

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx
