OMG! I Made A Card...or Two!

I have to give credit to the lovely Jo Rice (Head Designer for Lavinia Stamps) for kick starting my mojo, and creating this card (above and below). I watched a short video she had done. She made a tag, but I made mine into a card. Yes, that's artificial moss under the flowers. (Temu) The flowers are from Lavinia, as are the corner stamp. The butterflies are little Lavinia stickers. And if you look closely at the photos below, you can see a wee sticker that say's "Reindeer Moss", also from Lavinia Stamps. I created the Turquoise and Lemon back ground on water colour card using Brusho's. Cutting out the flowers wasn't fun😡. I could have used my scan 'n cut machine, but thought I'd use scissors thinking it wouldn't be too difficult. NEXT time I will use my scan' cut machine!
  
I have to give a huge thank you to Andrea (please visit her blog, Snippets by Andrea) for this card below. I saw on her blog the other day, that she had made some beautiful cards using a card pack/kit. I was so impressed by the cards she had created that I jumped online and checked my local craft store to see what kind of packs/kits they had. I found  this 'Simple Stories" Classic Pooh kit which I purchased. This is the first card from a kit that I have ever made. The instructions were clear and easy to follow. It's not perfect, but I had loads of fun and am happy with it. So thank you Andrea for giving my mojo a kick start!! I can now understand why people like these kits. The choice is amazing!
I have finally found a fabulous photo editing program and it came with my new laptop! I 'accidentally' found it while checking out what the different icons were .So now I am able to edit my photo's so much easier than I was. The pink background was made using the new program. It's called Microsoft Design. It has so many editing options to choose from. Romeos trip to the vet went well, he is taking some probiotic which he loves. It's a powder that I sprinkle on his food each morning. His food has gravy (which he loves) so I mix it in with that. His sneezing has gone as well. He had a half of an antihistamine each day for two days, and that has stopped him sneezing. So we are  happy little vegemite's again! I just wish the temperatures were a bit higher. We had three awesome sunny days, but today has more clouds. I think it is supposed to rain later, and again tomorrow. Don't forget to check out Andrea's blog - Snippets by Andrea.
Thank you for dropping by! Have a SUNSHINE day! Remember to always be your authentic self, and shine bright each and every day!
