Well we have been at the renovating thing again or is it the demolishion thing? There is such a fine line! I ordered my new carpet on Saturday……yes I know DH won but the lino was so expensive and so much preparation would have need to be done with the floor cause we all know how flat it is…NOT!!
Well we have removed the first most offending piece of carpet on Saturday night and have tried to get rid of that step!
See our lovely concreting attempt!! I do apologize in advance as the date for the new carpet to be laid is the 4 of Feb so Tech class next month will be on bare concrete floors unless I can convince them of a special need!
As well as that we have painted the toilet and laid new flooring in there. That was interesting as DD 5 had the next door neighbour (boy 7) sleep over last night and there was no door on either the toilet or bathroom so there was a lot of don’t come in the hallway going on. I won’t show you the toilet if you want to see that you have to come visit me!!
OK enough waffle you came here cause you thought I’d done some stamping didn’t you?? Well in between all that I actually did. Keesh has set us a new challenge and this time it was a colour challenge so I thought why not!
Not my usual cup of tea but isn’t that the idea of a challenge! I could have gone male as these are male colours and I did try to use the Ute out of Loads of Love but I seriously can not colour that little ute in for love nor money so thought I’d go with what I know and love…..FLOWERS!!!
I ended up doing 2 cards as I thought card 1 may have been a little plain!
So these are my 2 cards. I won’t give colours cause dah they are above!!!
Card 1 I’ve used the embrace life stamp set and used sponge daubers to colour the flowers and then a little blender pen.
Card 2 I’ve used Oh So Lovely and Polka Dot background.
Hope you like them, I’m off to work on my slide show and get the bathroom doors there last coat of paint so I can have privacy again!!
See Ya
