Well, to be honest, two pink and one blue! They all use quite a bit of retired product but if I like something I am going to continue to use it! Lots of fussy cutting too - I really needed to meditate! (see below)
This first one uses SU colours of very vanilla, blushing bride and strawberry slush. I coloured direct to the stamp and used blushing bride, strawberry slush and certainly celery. The embossed panel is two SU edges ones joined together.
More blushing bride and whisper white. Again, I coloured direct to stamp using certainly celery, blushing bride and strawberry slush. The embossed frame is from SU and has been fussy cut.
And now for the blue one. Colours used are SU very vanilla, bashful blue and lucky limeade. The embossed frame is from SU and has been fussy cut.
That's it for now. I will show Mum's card after she has received it.
On a Personal Note -
Negotiating housework with two young adults is driving me crazy! Now that they have left school and finished studying I have been trying to get them into a more 'shared house' routine rather than 'I am too busy working/socialising/relaxing - Mum can pick up the slack' routine that seems to have become the norm. When I loose my cool they exclaim 'No I didn't intend for you to do it instead' but it certainly begs the question - 'If you don't do it, and you don't intend for me to do it - who does it?'
Brings back not so fond memories of shared households in my 20's. It is also my own fault too, because I am not good about being assertive. I tend to ask once, then drop some hints, then loose it.
As is said - 'and how is that working for you?' If I am truthful I would have say - pretty bad.
Time to put my big girl panties on and do some win/win negotiation. Gulp!
Happy Crafting!
Cheers
Susie
