Congratulations

I have made a card for the Motivet blog. I always love working with their stamps. They have such lovely little characters. I still have a few that have not seen the ink yet, so it's on the to-do-list for 2010.
Of course I had to use some Basic Grey paper... I followed the sketch quite closely and only left out the bow. It would have made my card a little bit too full.
I love that McGill pine branch punch and had to Glimmer Mist the flowers of course. A lot of Distress inking too and blue gross grain ribbon from Paperchase. The sentiment is already printed on the ribbon from East of India. They do quite a bit of shabby chic/ organic? stuff and you can by their goodies at John Lewis.
No more crafting for me now until after the weekend. Got another 11.5 hour shift tomorrow and a twilight shift on Friday 'til 23:00. Then at 0:00 we'll be driving to Folkstone-Calais - Belgium, and back immediately the same Saturday morning, to pick up my mom. It's a 10 hour non-stop roundtrip with no night sleep. Ow, ow,...
