Foxy Lady

Evening lovelies - how are you? I've had a relaxed day - one of my lovely friends gave the girls a bag of goodies each last night to give to me tomorrow - how thoughtful - it included some daffs so they have been taken out and put in a vase last night. Another very kind friend sent some flowers through the post today too - so I've been spoiled already! Here's my flowers!



I continue to be amazed by the kindness I have experienced since September - don't get me wrong I knew it was there before but it really is a beautiful discovery - I am very fortunate!

I have a swap card to share with you today - the theme was Foxy Lady - and this is my card - using clarity stencils and stamp.


I applied the back stencil then brushed on adirondacks in sailboat blue, butterscotch and raspberry.  Once done I added the lady stencil and used black dreamweaver paste. Finally I stamped the dream stamp then added to a card. I hope the lady I'm sending this to enjoys it!

Have a happy Mothers Day tomorrow - I'm off to a service at church with my girls then to my mums for Sunday lunch! I'll post my Christmas card club make once I get home!

Big hugs to you all and Happy Crafting!

Rachel xx

  7. My lovely lovely friend, thank you so much for your lovely comments - you have no idea how much sunshine you bring to my life and we 'only' know each other through Blogger! I
    'm not surprised friends buy you flowers hun because you are awesome and so generous of spirit. I've no doubt you're that and more IRL!
    The fact that you are creating and enjoying it amazes me - when I'm upset I can't create - so the fact that you're creating after the last few months floors me. The challenges will be there when you are ready so don't worry about them right now so enjoy your creating and let your light shine my lovely friend Karen xx
