Morning all, how are you today? It's a bit damp over here, and chilly, and we are having to have a new exhaust fitted on the car this morning. I hate it when the car needs something done, why can't they make the parts of something stronger?!
Anyhoo, I have a happy little card for you today:
You know by now that I am a sucker for Roberto's Rascals stamps
This little chap is Bee Henry from CC Designs
Painted with Distress Inks (ReInkers)
Orange paper is a scrap of Basic Grey, that I edged with a Martha Stewart border punch
Matting layer and lettering cut from a sheet of chocolate brown Bazzil Bling card
The happy die is from a Paper Smooches Christmas set
The bee was cut using Memory Box Alphabet Soup dies
Sweet and simple but I hope he makes you smile as much as he does me.
Yesterday was my last day in my job of 11 years. Crumbs. It still feels surreal, like it has been happening to someone else, but today I am unemployed. Don't panic, I start my new job on the 18th, but it means I have a week of "me" time to craft and relax. Hurrah. My beloved boss, the lady I have worked with all those years, has also left, and we are going to be starting a whole new adventure together!
Well, that's me for today, have a happy weekend.
Hugs to all
