New Hat

Good evening folks, well thats another weekend been and gone. Seemed to have flown by, even with the extra hour. Hope you've all had a good one. We've spent a lot of it in carpet  and DIY shops.

We're decided to decorate our hallway and stairs as our naughty cats have ripped off most of the wallpaper. Our son Kyle is going to plaster it us, so the race is on to get it painted before the new carpet comes in a fortnight. I hate painting! :o(  And why is it when you are decorating one room, does the whole house become a tip?

Anyhoo! enough twaddle from me.


I've made this one following a gorgeous sketch over at Lili of the Valley and I'm entering it into their challenge.
Also entering it into Dream Valley Challenge anything goes
The Squirrel and the Fox hats and flowers

I used: LOTV image
Spectrum Noirs & Derwent pencils
Back to Basic papers
Spellbinder dies
Whimsey stamps sentiment
Ribbon, scrim, flowers, brad & gems from stash

I'm off to have a good old mooch around blogland whilst watching X-factor & Downton Abbey. Ooh! I love Sunday night telly.

Tell me about it hun, my lounge is currently in progress and it's a right mess - my OH plastered the ceiling yesterday and now has all the walls to do, but as he is a FT plasterer trying to get him to do our house is a nightmare! Just think how lovely it will look when it's done. Fabulous card sweetie - love the image, really pretty pastel colours too. Back to work tomorrow :O( Hugs, Claire x

Hi Donna, Gorgeous card! Love this sweet image and such a pretty colour combo.

Good luck with the decorating ... it's not a job I like very much but will have to get my paint brush out in the next couple of weeks because we are going to decorate our bedroom. We just need to keep thinking how lovely it will look when it's done.

Hi Donna, looks like we both chose the same image, only I cheated & use the pre coloured one. lol. I love the way you've matched the colours of the flowers with the image, it looks stunning.
Good luck with the decorating, I think our Poppy has something to do with the state of some of our wallpaper!
