Baroque Border















Here is a zig-zag card, made using the Baroque roller, inked with versamark then embossed with gold EP. Sentiment stamped and matted onto Sage Shadow scalloped oval.
It's difficult photographing this card because of the way it opens, but I have done my best. Don't think David Bailey has anything to worry about!!
Been to Chris's (sis-in-law) today. She is not very well, as she has a tooth absess and consequently one side of her face is quite swollen. Took her some daffodils to cheer her up and we spent the best part of the day crafting. Did a cantilever card - which was a problem, as the supplier had sold this with the wrong instructions!! After a lengthy phone call, it turns out that the template Chris had bought would only work with A4 or square cards and we were trying to make A5 cards. The instructions did state quite clearly .... take 2 A5 pieces of card.......doh! We weren't amused, having spent some time trying to work out why the card didn't! Not to mention the card we had wasted. Anyway, we had another go using Square card and it worked OK this time. We then made a quick men's card and then spent another hour colouring in some digi stamps which was fab! Had a great day, them home to make a quick tea, followed by my Wednesday Craft class and more colouring in. Once again, it was uncannily quiet, so I played my Susan Boyle CD for a little background music!

Looking forward to tomorrow - its a full day's SU regional training event at Sheffield, at the Beauchief Hotel, followed by an evening of fun for demos' invited guests. Great stuff!
