I will maybe bring another one in when The Water Pump is finished, but for the now I do not want to work them on a rota basis. All are big projects and I know I will end up getting downhearted with no finishes again, so I need to concentrate more on one or maybe two at a time. If for any reason I am not enjoying one then it will get cast aside for a while once more.
Back to the present and until last night I had been working on The Water Pump and I am pleased with the progress so far. This is what it is looking like at the moment.
I do love the little bluebirds.
I will share with you one card because it has been made using one of my new dies, its a Tonic die called oriental lily.
The pink lily was used making one of the precoloured card templates that you can get to fit the die, but it also comes with white ones that just have the foiling on them, so the second one I coloured using a Tim Holtz distress ink called Squeezed Lemonade. lol how do they think up the names for some of these colours, to me its just a pretty lemon shade. The wording and the flourishes are also new dies.
Its been a horrid weekend weatherwise with that horrible white stuff everywhere. I hate snow, as far as I can see its only use is to look pretty on Christmas cards. I desperately need some sunshine and think its time we started looking at holidays again. We are usually very lucky here in that if we do get a little snow it has gone by the following day, so two days of snowing and the gardens all covered in white - yes they look pretty from the window I admit - is sending me into hibernation mode. Its times like this when I wish we had a big open, old fashioned style, roaring fire in the grate (preferably with a maid to clean it and relay it the next day).
Thank you for visiting and I hope you enjoyed it here and will visit again sometime.
Goodnight all,
Hugs
May your frogs stay in their ponds.
