Black Ice

I can't believe its the last 'A Place To Start' challenge of the year, it has flown since I first started with them back in August 2019!! I can't believe its gone that quickly! Anyhoos, I hope you will join in with us this month. Our challenge theme is.....

ANYTHING VINTAGE

for those of you who are regulars here, know I don't do vintage very well lol!

But after talking to my friend (Hazel Didos) we decided to have a try at this new technique called black ice,,,,not black magic as she told me! I thought I was gonna get some chocolates to eat!! It really is a great technique to use & really easy! So this card was made while we were Skyping & crafting.

In The Jungle, The Mighty Jungle.....

Well, whats happened to this fabulous weather we are meant to be having? Yesterday was gorgeous, o made arrangements to help someone with their gardening today & yeah its yukky!! Fingers crossed it brightens up later, because it really need doing & I'm not sure when else I will get chance. I'm starting a new job next week....so scared lol I'm going from support worker (which I loved) to customer service/checkout at Homebase (big DIY store) it was a hard decision as I loved my support work, met some fabulous people, who I'm gonna stay in touch with. But when it comes down to working a few more hours or Nige having to work full time, I decided I would work more. Nige just couldn't take working full time. He is pooped after two 9 hour shifts so anymore after that & it would make him poorly again & that I just couldn't cope with knowing I could of helped xx

Anyhoos enough of that, I'm here to share my latest DT creation with you. 

This is for My Time To Craft, which is my challenge blog & thankfully something in my head must have said you need to make a birthday card for Nige soon, so I chose this theme lol

FOR THE MALES IN OUR LIVES

I generally steer well clear of male cards unless I have to, as Nige's birthday is near the end of May I needed to make him one. I remember when I got this stamp set free with my magazine he loved it....so here you go my card for my hubby for his 49th birthday xx

'Hidden Treasures'

Today's post is late, I was waiting for my sand (glue) to dry. then Katie wanted to go shopping for make-up & clothes the same as every teenager does...but she wanted me to go with her! The downside to this is I always end up spending on her & she goes home with the same amount of money she left the house with....crafty madam!! Then when we got back I realized I hadn't taken my meds, so decided to have a snooze to give them a chance to work. Well that was at 2pm....its now 6pm oops.....all Nico's fault he decided he wanted snuggles so ended up having skunky snuggles for an extra hour as well lol.....

Anyhoos enough of that, here's why I am here.

Today's challenge over at My Time To Craft is a fab sketch, made by DT member Jo (thanks hunnie)
