And the winner is....better late....and another chance to win.....

 Time seems to be slipping away from me this week. I am late posting the winner of the Flexmarker skin tones, the lucky winner is

Kisatrtle


Congratulations - email me with your address and I will get them mailed to you

The good news is that I have another set of Flexmarker skin tones - skin tones 1 this time. All you have to do is go over to the Letraset blog HERE and see what I did with the inky splodge below, leave a comment there, then pop back here to leave your name. I will draw a winner on Monday




and here's another inky card for today, I inked the cuttlebug folder for this one. The flowers are Tim Holtz tattered florals


We are busy remodelling our kitchen - well, we are not doing the work ourselves, but it's amazing how time consuming it all is, choosing flooring, tiles, appliances. I have lists everywhere, and I am in mega indecisive mode. I must remember to take photos so I can show you

I saw a rare traffic stopping person today. She was youngish, tall, very tall because the heels of her bright orange fur trimmed ankle boots were at least six inches high. To set them off, she wore skin tight flowery leggings, topped off with a short fake fur jacket with lots of bling on it. The make up and earrings matched the rest of the outfit - let's be charitable and say there was plenty of both on show.  Julia Roberts in the opening scenes of Pretty Woman sprang to mind....quite a sight in our sedate little town. I watched open mouthed (together with the rest of the pedestrians and car drivers) as she sashayed down the street. Stopping traffic for all the wrong reasons is probably not a good idea I mused as I ambled after her in my flat boots and cozy camelhair coat. Then she caught her heel in a paving stone, and the spindly little heel snapped in half. I must be very unkind/unfeeling/nasty, but seeing her totter off into the distance on one six inch heel really made my day. A good laugh is so uplifting....

See you tomorrow x

  3. Lovely card!
    Don't you wonder what people are thinking sometimes when they get dressed? And don't you wonder how they can walk in those kind of heels?

  16. Love the colors you chose for your experament. The flower is awesome. You do have a way of telling a story about someone, I can just see her now in my minds eye. Her color scheme must have been out of this world. Ha!

  17. The other thing is when this girl gets to be in her 50"s her feet are going to be such a mess that she will have trouble walking at all. Your embossing really changed the look of your inky spot. This I have to try.
