A LITTLE BLACK AND WHITE NO AND A CARD FROM A BLOG FRIEND

Hi and welcome to my blog all my craft loving
friends and visitors.
Well another weekend is here already, my how time is marching on to the C time of year.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog,
and making such great comments on my work.

Coffee morning was a success we raised over
£200 pounds for the Macmillen Nurses.

My card today is one I made quite quickly last
night for one of my granddaughters who has 
just passed her test.

CLICK TO ENLARGE.


Now the inside.



This is a 4"x4" size card.
I matted the card with some black card.
I then cut out 16 Spellbinders Parisian Corner
Die pieces, and glued 4 of them back to back,
to create the squares you see.
I put 4 on this card, then added some black
pearls from my stash.
I added a congratulations banner, and did my 
usual inside.
I do hope you like this as I love the all different
designs it makes on the card.

Now I have a lovely card sent to me by my
lovely and wonderful little blogging matey
Sue J or Olliesmam. She sent me this beautiful
card and some lovely stamped images to colour.
Thank you SOOOOOOOOO! much Sue.


She does some lovely work so if your interested
please make her a visit, if your not already one
of her lovely followers.

Thank you again for your visit.
I do hope you all have a wonderful crafty
weekend.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

Well done on the fundraising Jenny!

Love the card you made, and it's good to see something other than 'torn up L plates' as the theme - I never seem to be able to think beyond that one!

And a lovely card from Sue too.

Hugs, Di xx
