Hi best blogging buddies...
Well, while I've been stuck in with these kitchen fitters (well OK, not fitters yet until all the remedial work is done) I decided to get out my glue gun and have a play! And this is the result.... what do you think?
I saw something similar on a blog, (or was it pinterest) a few weeks ago, the heart was made with rolled roses and there was a different saying below..... so I wanted to use that inspiration but do something a little different. I bought the same frame though from Wilkinsons... really cheap! I always love buttons and have loads in my button drawer, so it was easy to sort out some ivory ones. A bit of mount board that fell out of a cupboard while I was emptying my craft room (more about that later...), was used for the background - and I used a definition of love from an online dictionary.... which I think suits. I just printed it out on the pc. I'm always a happy bunny playing with my glue gun - apart from when I burn my fingers.... ouch!
Now - my kitchen (or lack of it!) The plasterers were in today, doing the walls and ceiling....... and if you look at the pic below, you'll see it was desparately needed after what the electrician did yesterday! So I have no lights in there till next week, no washing machine, no dishwasher, and my fridge, food, and everything else is all in my dining room........ I always wanted a kitchen/diner but not in this way! But on the plus side, I have water and heat....... !! BUT, and this a big but........ because the boiler is being replaced, and the plumber man needs access to the floorboards above the boiler.... I have had to empty my craft room........... OMG the stuff that's accumulated in there! So the contents of that room are now in my daughter's bedroom (thank goodness she's in Bermuda for the time being!) ANYWAY, I'm waffling,,, but you can possibly understand why I'm not getting too many cards made?? My promise to you all girls, is that I'm NOT going to put all the stuff back in to my craft room that came out!! I really really will sort it out!
Right..... I'm going to put my feet up now methinks.... a girl can get a bit worn out thinking about how nice it's going to look after it's done.....
Hugs to all.....
