About Me

Welcome to my blog

I started this blog in April 2012 so I could join Challenges. I am now on some design teams. I hope you like my cards. I started stamping in 1995 but my cards are still mostly cute.
Thank you to those who have joined as followers and to those who comment.

Lacy Sunshine 49 Sparkly and new

Lacy Sunshine challenge 49 - Sparkly and new
http://lacysunshinechallengeblog.blogspot.com.au/

I have used new papers from Lacy Sunshine "Mandy and Sheena Wild Boutique" paper set which I bought yesterday.  Plus new Lacy Sunshine digi stamp "Snow and Cat Enchantress" which I coloured with markers.
Snowflakes from Polkadoodles "Angelberry Christmas" CD
Added rhinestons and liquid pearls.

It has been very hot here in Sydney and we still have lots of hot weather to come.  Officially our summer is 1 December till end February but last year we had some hot weather in November.  We often have some very hot days in March.

The insects are what I don't like flies, etc.   This year we have a problem with little ants coming into the house, and they are not coming for food as they are in both bathrooms and my craft room.  I don't allow any food or drink in my craft room.  I made this card yesterday and instead of leaving it on my desk for the liquid pearls to dry I put it on the chair in the middle of my room.  This morning it was covered with ants, how they got there I don't know.  Luckily they didn't leave any marks on my card.

Have a good day everyone.

Love all the sparkle and shine! I hope you figure out the ant situation soon... Otherwise maybe leave your ink pads open and in the morning you'll have lots of ant-made cards! :)

Gorgeous card, Granmargaret - I love the pretty image and your new papers are stunning. We have a problem with ants too - I washed cherries from our trees and left them on the work surface - when I came back the whole surface was swarming with ants - ugh!!
Thank you for joining in our Something New Challenge at Fab'n Funky.
