good morning everyone

don’t have a card to share today  was knocked off my feet yesterday with bad throat and cold

here’s the good part…

i have know for a few weeks now that my youngest son and his partner

are expecting their first baby early next year …

but they ask not to tell anyone till they had been for first scan

with me being unwell i told them to text me didn’t want them to get the nasty bug i have

so late yesterday afternoon the text arrived….

they sent me over the scan picture you know the fuzzy scan sort lol

i replied a beautiful baby bumpkin how lovely .

Son text back

 IT’S TWINS 

thankfully i was sat down  i know i would have fallen lol…

i am still reeling to be honest with you such an unexpected

surprise

i hope you will understand i might be missing for few days till my excitement settles down

  just can't concentrate on making cards at moment

thank you for popping by

Colouring your own Gems and Dew Drops to match your crafting projects

Spectrum Noir Refill from Crafters Companion disposable gloves, non stick craft mat, little zip lock bag,

Place the gems/dew drops in zip lock bag add just 3 drops of ink from your refill bottle i used GT2 colour

seal up your bag and squish the gems around till  coated in ink

tip out your dew drops onto your non stick craft mat

do wear glove for this part  spread them out to aid drying time this really doesn’t take long at all

just a few seconds for the alcohol to evaporated then they are done

There you go instant coloured dew drops

just imagine you can now add gems that perfectly match any of your card projects
