A Facebook friend was selling these stamps called Rosie Posie by Papertrey Ink and as soon as I saw them, I had to buy...thanks Caryn
Here's my first attempt. I added a bit of depth to the flowers with Promarkers after I had stamped them (they are solid stamps, and I like the crisp white outline). The sentiment is by Simon Says Stamp
This news of mine is turning into a saga... yawn....I still can't tell you more than I have already, although one of you guessed it! Apparently they are having network problems in France, which is where the technical work is being done. So this means that I have been spending a lot of time on the phone to France, luckily their English is a lot better than my French, but I never realized I used such a lot of colloquial language, which is confusing for them. But once that barrier is overcome, it's fine - which is good, as I can only say ' hello, the elephant is grey, the apple is red and the dolphin swims in the sea, thank you, goodbye' in French, and so far elephants, apples and dolphins haven't been mentioned.........perhaps I could casually throw them into a conversation to impress them with my language skills.....
So sorry guys, it's back to watch this space again. And now I am off to have lunch with my sister which will be a three hour marathon of non stop chatter. See you tomorrow x
Wow, your card is beautiful! Also, I'm quite impressed by the depth of your ability to speak French. I can only say "Merci!"
ReplyDeleteYour talents never fail to amaze me - multilingual too!! But why dolphins Enfys?? Love the card, the roses look so pretty with the embossed background. So, we're still on tenterhooks for the big reveal although I think we may have an idea of what lies ahead. Enjoy lunch with your sister and have a great weekend. Pat x

ReplyDeleteBonjour Enfys, l'éléphant est gris, la pomme est rouge et les dauphin nage dans la mer! Merci et au revoir. ;)
ReplyDeleteYour card is just gorgeous, what a great stamp. France throws me off entirely now lol but looking forward to your news still. I would love to be a fly on the wall at your lunch with your sister, is she a good story teller too?
