Allsorts #848 Shaped/ Anything but Square

 Hello!

Hope you are well!

It's Christine over at Allsorts, and she would like to see your Shaped cards! Anything but a square. There is also the Anything Goes option too! 

Here's my card!



 I have used a Spellbinders die to make my shaped easel card! I used SU ink to blend a background of green, pink and blue. I didn't add any ink, I just used what was on my brushes! I blocked off where the stamp would go and pushed Brutus Monroe Glitter Glaze through the AALL & Create stencil Circular Disruption. When it was dry, I stamped and embossed in clear AALL & Create Rosey Daze. I colored just the roses with Ohuhu markers. The sentiment is from Gina K.

Prizes are from AALL and Create

Go, see what the rest of the DT has come up with!!

Challenge #849 Allsorts In The Garden

 Hello!

Hope you are well!

It's my turn to host over at Allsorts, and I have chosen In The Garden. That is an open ended challenge, as whatever you can imagine in your garden will work! The possibilities are endless! There is the Anything Goes too.


 I have fairies in my garden! She's from Lavinia and quite large. On my packaging she does not have a name, however, a fabulous fairy told me her name is Luna! This is a 5 X 7 Piece of Lavinia Scene-Scapes called Starbright. I have also stamped the Lavinia Bell Flower Vine up the tree on the right. Lots of stickles on her wings, the tree and a lot of the colored dots! Sentiment is SU!

Prizes this fortnight are 2 prizes of Lavinia stamps! 

 

 Go, see what the  DT and GD have found in their gardens!

“People waste their time pondering whether a glass is half empty or half full. Me, I just drink whatever’s in the glass.” — Sophia Petrillo, “The Golden Girls”

We are having our Easter meal today. Emma brought her mom home from rehab/ physiotherapy- she has Gillian Barre syndrome and has been in the hospital since October. It's a pot luck affair and will happen at 5:30pm!

I spent yesterday visiting my mother, telling her I would pick her up at 5 tonight. she called as soon as I got home to tell me that she wasn't coming! Hahahaha! We'll have another go round when I go visit her this morning! She also needs a haircut! If she's not open to that I am telling her that I will cut it with dull scissors and a bowl!

Yesterday I made Hummus! It was labor intensive. Dirtied every small appliance you hate to clean (food processor and bullet), but is so good! I made garlic and pepper. I love Hummus!

I also got my sweet potato casserole ready for today, and my raisin sauce for the ham. The ham is in the slow cooker as we speak!

I had to get everything ready as I am playing Canasta today at 1pm! I am the filler inner! They call me when someone is away, and one  of the crew is in Greece!

Our weather has been lovely during the day, but still quite cool at night!

Better go!

Talk to ya later!
