Welcome to Monday and the start of another week ....

Morning readers, 

Hope you all enjoyed a fabulous weekend, we certainly had the weather for it! We BBQ'd Saturday and Sunday, it was so nice to be to sit outside in to the evening .. SO MUCH better than listening to rain on the windows!!! Sadly, the downside is that it's proven a little tricky to sleep in the warmer temperatures - how do YOU cope with the higher temperatures?

I've a make to share with you today ....... featuring some new-ish stash, some not quite so new stash and a very elderly background stamp from Inkylicious that hasn't seen ink in simply TOO LONG!

My C6 card
The front/back/inside of my C6 card and the front/back of my envelope

Materials used:
  • White, 250gsm, C6/A2 card and matching envelope
  • Card in white and Paper Mill postbox red, cut to fit and mat + snippets of each, for my image panel
  • Using my MISTI stamping platform I inked up the Inkylicious checkerboard image using Versafine Clair nocturne and stamped the image panel, insert, card back and envelope
  • Aall & Create chess piece image (from set #122) stamped using Versafine Clair nocturne ink
  • Clearly Besotted sentiment (from "brushed sentiments") stamped using Versafine Clair tulip red ink


I'll be entering the above make for the following challenges:-
  1. Water Cooler Wednesday - challenge No. 317 - ALL THINGS MASCULINE
  2. Fab 'n Funky - challenge No. 527 - FOR THE BOYS
  3. Stinkin' Inkers - June 3rd challenge - YOU'RE THE MAN
  4. Crafty Gals Corner - challenge No. 220 - ONE FOR THE BOYS
  5. Pixie's Crafty Workshop - challenge No. 405 - USE SNIPPETS

Still walking and still enjoying the sunshine, wanna see where I've been? So lucky to have such lovely walks so close to home ... I HAVE found myself going out earlier these warm days though!
