Time goes by....

Hi Folks, Hope you all had a great week-end. We went through to Haddington, nr Edinburgh yesterday to visit our younger daughter & her family. I certainly enjoyed myself as lots of crafting was going on in their house. My son-in-law did all the cooking and the meals were so delicious too. My Daughter, Grandaughter ( 9) and myself spent most of the day crafting. My Grandsom (12) was learning Zentangles. It was late before we returned last night and of course I had to see what the Sunday-Stampers Challenge 212 was for this week.  'Silver ' was the chosen theme and Hel's has created the most beautiful tag. So this morning I started to create my card, and as I am always looking for time, this is what came to me.  My base card is a 6" X 6" white hammered card that I edged with my trusty Pen-Touch silver pen. Since I had bubble wrap from a parcel sitting beside me, I wrapped a piece around my acrylic block,added some dried marigold ink and stamped the background on a piece of white card, Brilliant, it worked.  I used a recently acquired Paper Artsy stamp that I love and used it to stamp over the background. I then used a Crafty Individual stamp and distressed it with Scattered Straw, Salty Ocean & Frayed Burlap, cut around it and matted it on to a silver die cut . A few embellishments from my stash was added to complete the card.
I'm still managing to sew, crochet and make some cards before our holiday on the 23rd July. Got some sewing to do this afternoon whilst watching Wimbledon and our own Andy Murray play in the next round.

 Thank-You all for the lovely comments left on my blog and I'll always try to return them.  Hugs Rita xx
