Hope.......

Afternoon peeps another glorious day after the fabulous wedding, the trees in the cathedral were awe inspiring and the flowers were a beautiful abundance of greens and creams, I bet it smelt heavenly in there, unfortunately I had to work but it wasn't busy so I got to come home a little earlier to play catch up on the TV. Today I've been to my fave place.....Olney for another class with Lin who did a smidge of baby sitting as well as teaching today, gosh shes talented, the project is called Flower Power and the main feature I suppose is the metal flower using the dies from Paperartsy, there is a tutorial on Lins blog how to make the flowers .......so effective. I chose colours again that were a bit different for me.......Olive green and a lilacy pink, I must admit when I first started I thought this isn't going to work but after lots of adding paint and wiping off paint and then adding abit more if you catch my drift it kinda came together. I love the alpabet Kabuka mold that we used.....ran it through the big shot, easy peasy, added a spray paint and then used alcahol inks to take some paint off and add some ink colours. I love using sprays and its amazing how many variations of finished projects there were at the end of the class......all totally gorgeous.

Had some bad news when I got home though, unfortunately Richard didn't get an Internship at Rare after going to an interview three weeks ago.....sad, but I'm sure there were lots of other disappointed candidates as well, on the plus side at least I can start looking for a holiday as we had put it off just in case he managed to get a placement. Oh well I'm off for  few more days yet so I can get my melt pot out again and have another play.......yay.


Have a lovely weekend and bank holiday
hugs
