Yesterday was spent with my lovely daughter Annie and our dear friend Astrid who came down for the day to join us. We try and meet as often as time allows as Astrid and Annie are very busy people. Annie provided us with a fabulous lunch too, always a treat for me. We always craft and have plenty laughter and chatter along the way. I'll add some pictures at the bottom of my page.
Anyway, whilst my mojo was missing I started watching Stampscapes lessons to see if it would help me find it again , and so I have been busy practicing what the lovely Kevin Nakagawa tells us to do on his wonderful tutorials. I also had lots of help from the lovely Shaz Brooks ( Silverwolf ) who also has some amazing tutorials too. Thank You Shaz. I really do have lots to learn , but I thought you might like to see my first card using the beautiful stamps. Lots of Hugs and Thank You for staying with me whilst I was awol. Take Care Everyone.

Hi Rita,
oh what a very super card.
I love this beautiful scene, and you have done a wonderful job on it too.
I just wish I had friends to craft with, I am always crafting alone, and there are no crafting clubs near me either.
So I learn with tutorials too.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
A beautifully atmospheric card and great photos of the three of you lovely ladies. So glad you enjoyed your playtime together. Jenny x
