Little shopaholic

Hasn't it been nice having a bit warmer day after all that rain?   Pity I had so much to do inside that I didn't get a chance to enjoy it.   Have managed to find my dining room table to do some crafting today and this is the end product.
This card is for a friend's grand-daughter, who looks forward to getting a hand made card and is always most concerned that I do not add my name on the back of the card!

Off to the Edinburgh Tattoo on Wednesday with our Over 50 Club, staying overnight and then a wee shop Thursday morning before heading home.

Diva Friend

Gosh where has the time gone, not been posting for a while nor yet carding. Still living in a mess - although things are beginning to take shape - painters in doing all the staining - so am confined to the back room today.  Upstairs toilet almost finished but joiner is on holiday for two weeks.  We still have to nail up a big blanket on our bedroom at night to save the neighbours seeing into our room!  Husband not too fussy about  how he wanders about so don't want them to get a laugh especially as one of the neighbours is recovering from a heart attack.  Had a lovely day out with Carol and Aud on Monday and we paid a visit to Crathes to see the lovely Anne.  Had a great day.
Now the card, this was a very last minute card-

The blue spotted paper was in my stash  - cut with a Fiskars all round punch.
