What the heck...time to play...

Hi folks...I'm not going anywhere today...after calling the Juror's Attendance Update line as requested last night it seems we're not required but sod's law I have to call again tonight...crikey talk about mucking folks about...this could go on all week so it's back to the die cutting which I had to abandon when an e-mail arrived from Fiskars for a last-minute magazine commission with a Wednesday deadline which meant nailing it yesterday and getting it off in the mail today.
Well that didn't half throw the planned routine into meltdown...don't know if I'm coming or going now so what the heck I decided to throw caution to the wind and have a little play...with still 200 to cut...another six or so is hardly going to be a big deal.



The Tattered Floral flowers were die cut from folded over and over again tissue paper from my Ribbon Girl parcels of goodies and the little buds are just very very scrunched up versions of their big sister...
toodle oo for now..

  10. Hi Kath, lovely cards, that wee bit out of the old dictionary has great words for remembering on someone's birthday. The pink tissue flowers are cute they make it pop, nice and girly. Fishers are lucky to have you on their team, you can dream up gorgeous cards so quickly. Fine about the no go to court, did you have a job picking up what the recorded message actually says? I had to dial a couple of times just to make sure of what was said, the lassie on the recorded message has an accent which I found not so easy to pick up. Old age, hearing not so great!..Trish

  11. Hi that should read Fiskers, this tablet wants to change it to a word it obviously knows, it's nay my sight going too! It could possibly change it to an h again when I hit the button...Trish

  13. Both of these cards are so pretty. Love those pink tissue flowers. It's a shame you have to put your life on hold until they decide whether they need you or not. It's the same way here but there should be a better way. They obviously aren't stampers and don't realize what a dilemma this puts you in!
