Morning,
Not that I'm expecting too many visitors today but, here's hoping there aren't too many thick heads this morning, thought I would stop by and wish you all
Are you the kind of person to make New Years Resolutions? If so, do you keep them? Do you write them down so you can see whether you kept them? I don't but, if I did, I think that for 2018 I would resolve to lose some weight, take more exercise and live my life to the full - nothing wrong with that, is there?
MAY YOUR YEAR BE A GOOD ONE, PARTICULARLY IF 2017 WASN'T KIND TO YOU
Just in case you are stopping by to see what I've been up to then I do have some crafting to share ... an ATC I've made for my themed swaps with a buddy on the Isle of Skye ... this one is for the theme of book or song title - can you guess the title? The weather outside was FRIGHTFUL so I decided to brighten up my day!
 |
| My ATC - when the weather outside is frightful you can see where my imagination takes me! |
- ATC blank
- Snippets of card in white and neon pink
- On the neon pink layer I stamped the chevrons from Creative Expressions CEC851 using Memento sweet plum ink around the edges
- On the white snippet I stamped the Inkadinkado flamino and palm images (from 60-31362 flamingo fun .... NBUS!)
- Faber Castell polychromos pencils used to colour
- Stardust stickles used to accent
I'll be entering the above for the following challenges:-
- Hiding In My Craft Room - challenge No. 333 - FREESTYLE (ATG)
- Inkspirational - challenge No. 151 - DESIGNERS CHOICE - STAMPING ONLY
- Brown Sugar - challenge No. 273 - ANYTHING BUT A CARD ... it's an ATC so I hope that counts
- Colour Crazy - challenge No. 51 - ANYTHING (hand coloured) GOES
And the song? It's "Pretty flamingo" by Manfred Mann. It's an oldie so the quality isn't great but .. if you're not familiar (like my husband ... he said he'd NEVER heard of it!!)

I adore your pretty flamingo ATC Kathy and thought of the song straight away as it is definitely my era, must say I couldn't think for the minute who the group were but should have remembered it was Manfred Mann as I always liked the lead singer's voice. x
WHATTTTTT? Mr K has NEVER heard of that song . . . as soon as you said PRETTY FLAMINGO I was singing it inside my head!
FAB ATC there mate and the perfect antidote to frightful weather. We have v. high winds due through the night and ALL DAY tomorrow. Yuk.
Hugs, Sarn xxx
