Blue skies

Something's wrong...It's sunny outside and it's the 3rd day in a row!!! Yee hawwwwwwww...summer's back. I think I'm going to take advantage of the sunshine and sit out for a while...I know it's not very productive but since I've been moaning about so much rain it would be rude not to!

Here's another card using PTI's Everyday Button Bits. When I first made it I had only put 3 buttons on...I didn't see the 2 smaller stalks...gotta get my eyes re-tested...so now it's in full bloom :) I've never made this style of card before, it's called a Joy Fold Card...not sure why...but it was fun to make and a bit different from the norm. I saw it on SCS. The paper is doubled sided and called Fancy Papers ... when I looked through my paper drawers I realized I had quite a few FP without realizing.

I also got to use my new SU! Circle of Friendship stamps...there are 8 greetings and I know I'll be using them a lot. Again the buttons are PTI and the cs Bazzill. The card opens from left to right and the sentiment circle is keeping the card closed. You don't have to do that but I think it's a nice touch.

My stomach is grumbling so I'm off to get my breakfast, shower, take the dogs their walk then enjoy the sunshine...hopefully it won't be gone by then LOL!

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by.

Catch ya later x

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL Ok...you might not find this funny but I was LMAO at Cathkin Braes this morning. If anyone had of seen me they would have thought I'd escaped from the Loony Bin! I told you before when I throw something for Rocky he will run hop hop and pounce...very funny in itself if you see it. Well today he added a new trick...I threw a rock and he ran hopped hopped kicked his four legs out to the side and pounced!!! LOLOLOLOLOL The tears were running down my cheeks and I'm still having a giggle as I'm typing this. I wish I had a camera/video ready to capture these moments...I think he would win top prize on You've Been Framed or whatever the show is called.

Anywho, enough of that...here's the card I said I was going to post yesterday but didn't. The stamp is from my new PTI Everyday Button Bits set that I picked up from Fee last weekend. It's been calling my name all week and finally Thursday was the day! I love this set...it's very clever...and I'll be posting a few cards using it over the next week. I thought the Basic Grey paper was perfect for the cherry image and the sentiment comes from a set from Elzybells. The sentiments in this set fit perfectly in little places and where there's no place else to put them. I added a bit of zig zag stitching and the ribbon for the bow is SU! I suppose I should mention the buttons lol...they're PTI as well. You well may be shocked but there's not a speck of glitter in sight!

I started another set of cards last night using a different image from the set but I ran out of the pp I was using so I'm having to make a trip out to get some more this morning. How I hate going to craft stores LOL! I also started another Nikki card but will save that till Monday...if I can wait that long ; )

Right, I must get myself cleaned up to make the torturous trip to craft store land.

I'll catch ya later x
