A bit of sparkle

After a very busy weekend.......which included a lot of gardening.....as the weather decided to give us a brief respite from the constant rain.......all my little plants are now re-potted and in their winter home.......a mini greenhouse.....hopefully protected from all the winter decides to throw at us.....so now back to some cardmaking.......with a bit of sparkle.
A lovely Penny Black image.......ready to party.......with a lot of glitter.
'Anything goes' for Tuesday Alchemy and Incy Wincy.......Simon Says wants 'glimmer and sparkle.....and Sparkles wants 'traditional'
And I need to get on with my cards because on the 22nd Shimelle has a new 4 week scrapbooking class starting........called Scrapbook Remix......a class that 'shares the secrets to mixing patterned papers of all kinds and creating pages with the combinations'.......sounds fun.......and new ideas for using up my old papers,I hope.......so once that starts I won't have much time for cardmaking!
You can find out more about the class here.......thanks to Mel and Rinda for putting me onto this class [I think!!].

I am just getting my head around reentering the garden after a long time where it was a pointless task ... now it seems formiddable!

I had been going to attempt Christmas cards this year but with all that's going on at the moment I think they may have to wait a year. I do enjoy popping in to see what you're making though :). Enjoy your new class with Shimelle x

I like Rinda's word - saucy she is!

I saw some cards in Next recently and I thought I could use the idea, so I might get started on my Christmas cards soon

She certainly has attitude! Love er pose and the sparkly touches really light her up. Thanks for the heads up on the class too.

What a fun card! Good luck with the class but the thought of you not creating and sharing cards is creating a bit of anxiety in me. I am getting ready to go on a cardmaking frenzy and you always inspire me!!!
