Latest Card

FLOWERS
Well hello again. I've only been gone 2 years!!  Its not that I left crafting, quite the opposite- too busy to blog.
Pathetic excuse I know particularly when Barbara Gray who is uber busy finds time every day.

 I am determined though, as retirement looms in the next 2-3 years I need to create a new life and this is the one I have wanted for a long time. Crafting, cards, sewing and indulging my mind into creating things. Dream life eh!  I hope so. Anyway, I digress (I am known for digressing, my husband calls it waffling)
The above card I have entered in the Clarity channel and a new one I discovered today.

All the stamps and masks are Clarity and coloured with spectrum noir alcohol pens and pencils.

    Lovely vibrant flowers Marilyn. I retired early three years ago and also recommend it, the time does seem to vanish though. Good luck in the Clarity challenge x

    As Lesley has said, the colours are so vibrant and show off the flowers beautifully like a summers day, and we could certainly do with holding that thought at the moment! Thank you for entering this month's Challenge and good luck to you xxx

    Lovely card. I too took early retirement two years ago but have just returned to work two days a week. Needed some company!

    Beautiful, flamboyant choice of colours, Marilyn. I haven't retired but just chose not to go back to Teaching on our return from a few years in the States - so I slipped gently into crafting. Now, I don't know how I managed to fit in everything! Thank you for joining in the first Clarity Challenge of 2016 and best wishes. ;~}
