It seems like an age since I last posted ! Last week was a very
busy at work; and it was back to the world of reality having had a wonderful
time away last weekend in Swedish Lapland and at the Ice Hotel
we returned on Tuesday night and then it was straight back to work.
After a very busy week at work I finally got to make a quick card last night
for a friend. I will do separate post with photos of our trip during the week
and hope to do some Scrapbook pages too (that’s the plan anyway) it was
amazing, it got as cold as -29! One night and the day time temperature varied
between -10 and -20 +. We where so fortunate and had clear blue skies and
sunshine all but one day, it was absolutely stunning and where so wrapped up
and snug other than a cold face you’d never know it was that cold. It was
definitely a trip of a lifetime, and even better still we where lucky enough to
see the Northern Lights… it couldn't have got any better.

Back
to the card I kept it simple as much as I could!... as its for hubby to give to a colleague. The
cute bunny stamp was a freebie set from months ago that came with a magazine as
is the floral backing paper and the two flowers together. The flowers where
part of a Nit Wit paper Kit and stamp
set that I got with one of the very first craft magazines I ever bought. They
all seem to work well together. So a few buttons, ribbon, punched flowers, die
cut swirl a sentiment that I embossed and we have a finished card ... I think it’s the quickest
I’ve made yet! I Hope you have had a good week and lots of crafty time to
enjoy. Thanks for visiting its really appreciated and I hope you have a great
week, hugs Andrea X.
Thank
