Working 9 to 5



What a way to make a living - too right lol! I wish I had just been working 9 to 5 over the last few weeks. I am pooped as I have been in at 8 and not home til 6.30, trouble is I am a night owl and seem to get loads done in the wee small hours. Well if there is a choice to craft or sleep, crafting wins hands down, that shows my devotion because any one who knows me knows how much I love my sleep :D

Well more little note books today using another scrummy combination of sage shadow, kraft and whisper white craft ink. A little close up below of a fairly new technique for me of poppin pastels, which has a lovely subtle effect.



Have a fab day & see you tomorrow xx

Supplies from Stampin' Up!
Stamps: Sparkly & bright, jolly wheel and fresh cuts.
Ink: Chocolate chip, close to cocoa, chalks and whisper white craft.
Card stock: Sage shadow, kraft and whisper white.
Misc: 1/4" whisper white grosgrain ribbon.

Tell me you didn't make a little mask and then sponge chalk around it to make a snowman? Because that would be GENIUS of you! If I've got the wrong end of the stick and you didn't do that, then I AM A GENIUS for thinking of it!

Your blog is a continuous inspiration!

Ahh, so that's how you do it! You just don't sleep! Was wondering where you squeezed your crafting time in LOL!
