Red, White and Blue

Good Morning

I hope that this post will find all my fellow crafters well and that you have had lots of time to do some crafting.  After being quite for some time now, I hope that it will be something of the past. 

Today I would like to share a card that I made some time ago, but I only have the opportunity to post about it now.

I think that the colour scheme was one that was from a challenge, but as I did this one sometime ago, I do not remember all the details.  Please forgive me, my mind is not what it used to be ( I do not really have an excuse - maybe we can blame it on the winter - LOL), I find that I have to make lists for everything these days.

Here it is.  The digi is a Meljens Design digi - Flower girl.  I really love to work with the Meljen images, they are so versatile and easy to colour.



My apologies for the focus on this image - I bought a new camera some time ago and I am still trying to figure all the settings out.






Thank you for taking the time to read my post, please leave a comment, I love to hear what you have to say.

Have a great day and to everybody that lives in a place where they are having some warm weather - I am very jealous.

Hugs,
Marika

First Post from Cape Town

Good Evening

I am back!!! I have finally arrived in Cape Town (actually it is more like 2 weeks ago, but who is counting), I have settled in and the kids will start school tomorrow.  I am not sure how much crafting I will get done as all my crafting stuff is standing in crates in our room, I do not have any space to work but I will make a plan.  I hope that the house hunting will go well and that we will find a suitable house very soon.  It is very nice living with my husband's sister and her husband but being 4 adults, 2 kids and 5 dogs in a 3 bedroom house.......... well I think that says it all.  We have looked at a few houses so far, but the locations where not ideal.

But enough about that.  I have a card that I would like to share with you today, I made the card just before leaving Pretoria, I just hope that when eventually I can craft again that all my mojo have not deserted me.



I love the little candy, it is something new that I have found and I have bought a wide variety, so you will see them a lot in the future.

Thank you for taking the time to read today's post, I really appreciate all your comments.  Have a great day and "see you soon".

Hugs,
Marika
