It's been an interesting day but a good one.
I washed this morning and hung it out on the line and then had to go to a lawyer's appointment to take Adrian and see about a personal injury claim for his accident. When we parked the car in town, it started to rain so didn't get a chance to take the clothes off and they have had to stay there as it has kept coming down most of the day and night.
A friend asked me to go to a concert in the park, a free one put on by our local council. She had seen them setting up and the weather seemed to clear a bit so we rugged up, took our folding chairs and LOL, there was not a soul there so we came back and picked up my OH and went to her place and had fish and chips for tea.
Anyway I came home and got stuck into making a card, here it is.
The basecard is called "Lipstick" from stash, the DP is from Graphics 45 - Domestic Goddess Collection, My Pretty Garden. The Nestie scalloped circle diecut is SU Pink Pirouette and the white is also a diecut. The sentiment is from SU set Well Scripted and inked in Pink Passion onto white card and mounted onto a "Garden Green" circle. The image from Penny Black set "Thinking of You" is inked in Basic Brown and coloured with Copic Markers. I added 3 black buttons as well to finish it off. I haven't as yet done the inside but will do so probably before I go to bed so I may add the pic later.
I would like to enter this into the following challenges:
Perfect Sentiments Challenge 18 - Inspire with Love with a twist - a photo inspiration
Come and Get It Challenge - Love is in the Air
Better go and post this, so thanks for popping in today and see you soon

Pretty card and as for the clothes left out to dry, that was just Mother Nature's extra rinse cycle! lol waving hi from the hills of North Carolina :)
ReplyDeleteHaaaaa!.....glad those kind of things don't just happen to me, then! Last load of washing I hung out got peppered by a magpie with an upset tum....haaa!
ReplyDeleteLove the sweet card, Sandy...you really are on a roll, lately!
Oh Sandy, love this gorgeous card :O) Oh, have you ever freeze dried clothes on the line. This made me think of when my kiddos were little, I didn't have a dryer. I washed in a wringer washer, yes a wringer washer, and had to hand clothes out in the winter, and they actually had to freeze dry! :O) Makes you appreciate the sunshine, and yes, even the rain ... tee hee! Love and Hugs! Leah Ann
