The challenge this week over at Daring Cardmakers has been set by my lovely bloggy bud and Funky Hand teamie Kathy and she wants to see the main elements of the card being things that fly flutter hover or waft about there "up there in the sky" so a perfect excuse to use one of my favourite Hero Arts Clear Stamp Sets..
COME FLY WITH ME
Hero Arts: Dots and Flowers Design Block
Old Letter Writing
Butterflies: Antique Engravings
Sentiment: Thinking Of You
Pearls: Hobby House
And talking of pearls I have just noticed that another of the little blighters has escaped on it's way to the photographic studio....how posh.....I don't think so...it's the windowsill in the old cubbyhole which gets great natural light all day.
Have you noticed how much the nights are drawing in and it will soon be time for the clocks to change again. I love the cold wintry nights and like nothing better than snuggling up with my bundle of golden deliciousness...the wind howling outside and my nose stuck in a good book. I am a big fan of anything Thriller or Mystery and particularly like John Grisham....Patricia Cornwell and Karin Slaughter but having read Paul O'Grady's first autobiography...."At My Mother's Knee" which was hysterical I just had to get this one.....
and if it is half as good.....I will be a great read. Love his style of writing....you just get the feeling that you are sitting in a comfy armchair across the fireside from Paul and he is telling you his life story....I could hear his voice all the way through the book and I guarantee you will split your sides laughing.....just as well I am only a few steps away from the en-suite....so bedtime reading for the next week sorted. And before you ask that is not a pic of Buddy on my bedside table...it's my last bundle of golden deliciousness....the sweetest boy Ben who died four years ago and I still miss him every day. He was my constant companion when I ran my ceramic business sleeping under the table while I worked...a real character and loved by all who came to classes probably because they all spoiled him rotten with treats....he was so obedient and didn't have one hooligan bone in his body unlike the resident furry boy but just like children you never get two the same and I love my current bundle of furriness every bit as much. See you all tomorrow.
Hugs Kath xxx
