Thank you for taking time to visit, and I hope I am even a tiny bit helpful as I have been helped and blessed by so many others. I have been doing Calligraphy since teens, and card making for many years as well. In 1990 I delighted in the joys of stamping with ink and embossing after a trip to Cairns, Qld. In 2009 I discovered the brayer, 2010 the Cuttlebug, also have now taking to reading up on crafting blogs and lo! Here I am, on one of my own.

I live on the coast of eastern Australia. I am a Christian. I trusted in the LORD down here at the beach, amazingly it is not far from where I now live. It was over 50 years ago, after a Beach Mission Service at the age of 12 years

Mo's Digi "What's Cooking" ~ Kitchen Tea card

Hullo there everyone .. a very quick post today with a card made in January for a kitchen tea. Sadly was not well enough to attend but did make it to the wedding this month.. have some cards for it too to share soon, God willing.
At the time of the Japanese Tsunami Mo had this digi for sale to raise money for the victims. I bought it and have never used it but when this occasion came it leapt into my mind as suitable. :D 
YAY!! my mission to use up *NBUS *(Never Used Before Stuff) is on it's way again. Add the paper to that as it one of Bearly My Designs bought ages ago and well it worked a treat. As was not well did not layer image as would have liked but cut it out with Spellbinder fancy Ovals. Used the favourite " Spellbinder scalloped petites" for the greeting with Bible verse - "..every pot shall be holiness unto the LORD.." from Zechariah. Ribbon was bought at Abakhan in Manchester .. love it so silky.
Thanks so much for popping over for peek and chat, and may God bless your day wherever you may be.

Hi Shaz! Great to see you in the Playground again - and with such a cute card too. Really pretty.

I had to look up what a 'kitchen tea' was - they didn't have those in my day, at least not in the UK!

Hope you're improving each day.

Hugs

Hi Sharon, SO happy to see you pop in the email. Zipped over to check your post, and delighted to find this cutie. On one of my fav S/B's. Really great coloring, set off by the elegance of the S/B. Those S/B ovals are some of the most used I think. Love the pretty papers & trims. Hope you are soon back to feeling better and have fun once more. God Bless in the meantime, and keep you in His Close Care. TFS & Happy wk ahead. Hugs

What a sweet card. Perfect image and coloring with wonderful and fun lay-out. Love it! We are so blessed with your wonderful project and hope you join us again in this week's Challenge at Word Art Wednesday. I want to share this verse with you in Luke 1:37 which says, "For no word from God will ever fail." God bless, always!

Am intrigued about the kitchen tea so will google once I have finished here lol, I am such a sticky beak!

This is gorgeous Shaz and I think it doesn't need a mat under the SB shape - that ornate edge stands out perfectly against the paper. The image is very cute and you have coloured her beautifully. Fab use of snippets too Karen x
