It feels sew good.....
Hello all,
Well I finally feel like I have a card to show you, I know I have done a couple of posts in the week, but in all honesty I have really not been happy with the last few cards I have created, I am not sure if that Is because they are not that good or just because of the way I am feeling at the mo.
Life has just been mad recently and I have been finding it difficult to cope, I reached breaking point, and so I have had a couple of days at my mums house, just to hide away from the world for a couple of days, I managed to have a full days crafting and it felt great....it is weird to say that you NEED to make cards, but sometimes it really helps to make life bearable......Anyhoo...thats quite enough of me!!!
I have finally made a card I am happy with, I do love this Lorali image!!...I have coloured it with copic markers.....the tape measure detail I have hand made from some scrap white paper which I just coloured with copics and then added the markings in...the paper is "WRMK - Tiffanys"
Thanks for looking, it is much appreciated!

I love these cards of yours they are so much fun. the colouring up is amazing and I love the use of the white pen - really finishes it off.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about crafting, I am almost working full time until December and it doesn't give me enought time to play and to experiment. But I ill do my best.
Please take care of yourself Juls, we all need time to relect and be at peace - to re-generate the batteries. Thinking of you. Luv B xxx
Juls, hope life gets less hectic/mad for you. Adore your card - so fun.
ReplyDeleteI think you're too hard on yourself Juls! I've never seen a boring or dull card from you yet!!! I love these images and was 'gob smacked' when I found that you can get embroidery sets too.......
ReplyDeleteYour card is gorgeous Juls, what a fantastic image.
ReplyDeleteTake some "me" time and enjoy it, I hope you feel better soon,
