Wedding Card

 
Posted by Picasa

Have to say I'm proud of this one. The photo doesn't do it justice.

How to make a lace flower.

I've finished the wedding card which I'll put on later. I've decorated it with flowers, one of them I made with lace. I took a 6" piece of white lace stitched along the top with running stitch then pulled the thread to gather it. Then I stitched the two open ends together .......hey presto a flower. I added a gem to the centre. Really pretty and only took a minute.

Today

I've had a lovely lazy day.I needed it after shopping in town with Jeff & Kenny yesterday which I enjoyed. Spent most of my time just reading and getting ideas from some of the great blogs I follow. I also downloaded some really nice free digi stamps from some of the blogs. I have started a new card for my nephew and his future wife. They're getting married next month. I hope the sun shines for them on the day and for the rest of their lives together. Finally I got a lovely text from Emily to thank me for the birthday card I made her. She thought it was absolutely beautiful. That did wonders for my ego and confidence. Thanks Emily.
