Card Sketch (Maureen W) AUST

 Morning  all

Its turned out a hot humid day after it rained all day yesterday.  At least our area has not been subjected to floods,  like other parts of North Queensland. 

I am sitting  here with the window open just a slight breeze coming through,  the birds are chirping and its so peaceful 

Yesterday I  spent most of it catching up on my card swaps and challenge cards.

Today's card is for "Stick it Down " monthly card challenge

http://stickitdown.blogspot.com/

I have made this card using Kaisercraft "Lollipop" card stock and some scraps from Kaisrcraft "Bombay Sunset" a strip from a Gold Foil Sticker Sheet and Gold Pearls 

I hope you like it.

 Good Morning everyone

Todays blog is for a Guest Designer Post for a card I submitted in March.and won

for Stick it Down.

http://stickitdown.blogspot.com/

I have been  in hospital for nearly five weeks  brought some items with me as the first 2 weeks where about a work up to surgery.  I then thought I would come home before surgery once it was on the cards. That was not the case. So I have used what I had on hand to interpret the sketch.

I do hope it gives you some idea on how to interpret the sketch

Not even cutting them down, much as the pieces are fitting beautifully together

Most of these bits come from Porta Craft Lavender days Collection with some other bits 

I remembered  buying it quite a few years ago, for some scrapbook pages for a lady that adored Lavender , there is still some bits left . I will find a use for them one day

This card is going into the Card Sketch challenge for "Stick it Down

Afternoon all

It’s been another beautiful day here is South East Queensland, a warm day with an overnight low of 10 degrees

It’s been so quiet today. My back has been extremely painful for the last few days that  I actually took so pain meds as i could not move and sitting was just about impossible, taking this has been i have slept all afternoon but have woken up feeling a little better, so thought i do this blog post. Sitting here someone as put their wood burner fire on as I can smell the wood burning such a lovely smell feels like you need a pot of soup or hot chocolate.

 

I made the card this morning, it's for Stick it Down Monthly Card Sketch  presently using up scraps that i had in a bag. This sketch fitted perfectly

Just blogging the card I made on Thursday, I had such a busy day yesterday with a little bit too much walking  so when I came home my knee looked like a balloon, so ate a  late lunch, heat pack and then i sleept.

The card is for the March "Stick it Down " challenge i made it using a Kaisercraft 6.5" paper pad " Tea Break".  I hope you like it
