I had a great day at Floriade with a friend yesterday. The sun was shining, the crowds were busy at work and school and the flowers were blooming. So much colour and prettiness in one place. We enjoyed lots of laughs and some delicious treats along the way.
We have a new Just Add Ink challenge starting today, suggested by Tina. We're adding anything 'G' to our projects. I've gone with green and gold using the Pretty Pines Thinlits from the Holiday Catalogue.
I was lucky to find a couple of tiny little gold bells in my stash - they're the same size as the (red & silver) bells in the Holiday Catalogue - and I tied them on my twine with some gold metallic thread. My centre panel is popped up on dimensionals - in my case fun foam because I love how sturdy it is for large mats/panels.
In this close up you can see the shimmer I added to my card. Second Christmas card for 2016 made. Yay me.....but better get a wriggle on because this year is moving along
Well my Saturday is going to be spent at the preschool cupcake stand at the local voting poll tomorrow. I'll be busily baking most of today and the four other parent committee members are popping over to mine this evening and we're going to be icing and decorating a good 400 odd cupcakes. Hope you have something fun on your weekend agenda too.
Special birthday wishes to my beautiful godson on his second birthday today. Mummy is passing on lots of smoochy kisses and cuddles from me (in addition to the skype session this morning where I got to watch him open his pressies). Love him!

400 cupcakes? Rather you than me - good luck and I hope it goes smoothly! Your card is so beautifully CAS with perfect texture!
ReplyDeleteJust gorgeous Patrice!!! Perfect use of the "G" theme to create your elegant card. Hope the cupcake baking went well! Kelly x
ReplyDeleteThis is totally stunning P! I love how you've stepped up your centre panel and adore gold additions of thread and bells and elegant sentiment. Hope you had fun decorating and selling the huge amount of cupcakes - so fun to share tasks like these isn't it? xx
