But it was nice to do something different... and still have just a touch of glitter about it... well I just couldn't resist... could I?
I bet you thought I'd been MIA just lately - but I've just been quite busy and although been commenting, not actually getting around to making anything! We went to see the Wizard of Oz in London on Wednesday (staight comute from York to Kings Cross - no stops).... saw the matinee, had dinner, then came home! And what a show!!!!!!!!! I was like a child in toyland.... Michael Crawford as the Wizard, and the girl who won 'Over the Rainbow' as Dorothy! The effects were magnificent, and I had to be forcibly held back from trying to make a grab for Dorothy's red glitter shoes, ooooh and Glinda the Good Witch's dress....... which was sparkly glitter from top to bottom!!!!!! JUST MY TYPE OF THING!!! But Barry and my daughter Emma held me back..... wahhhhhhhhhh!!! Ah well....

Fab card, love those little houses...
ReplyDeleteHi Christine, thought I'd stumbled into the wrong blog when I didn't see a fairy ;-) Brilliant card - love the image and the patterned paper. Sounds (and looks) like you had a great time. A big regret of mine is that I didn't get to see Michael Crawford when he was in the Phantom of the Opera - would've loved to have seen it, but the then hubby wasn't in the least interested! Sarah
ReplyDeleteSmashing card Christine and what a fab show - all that glitter must have been hard to resist!

Me again! Thanks for your comment - the sentiment I used is from Elzybells and they've closed now (sob sob, I loved their stamps!). So the only place you'd have a chance to get it is ebay I suppose. Lisa x
