Fantasy Stampers DT Challenge

Morning All

How are you today, the weather is a bit dismal here on Dartmoor today so glad the craft fair was yesterday and not today as the weather was cold but glorious here on Saturday.

As most of you know I have been invited to become part of the brand new Fantasy Stampers Design Team and until our launch in January the DT members are setting themselves sketch challenges and so here is our first sketch


 
and here is my take on it:
 
 
 
 
This card is commissioned by a friend whose son in law thinks he is lord of the manor and has everything he needs and thinks he is way above the rest of us mortals, he keeps a few sheep, horses, etc.: I thought this image very apt and the verse inside reads Antibiotics - Happy Birthday.  I do hope my friend Sheila likes it.
 
Alan is in the middle of putting up my new blinds in the bathroom and the kitchen it's going to be a pig of a job as they are very heavy as they are wooden, I also think they are slightly too large so he may have to cut them down a little width wise, oops my measurements were slightly out, and those who know me very well will know that I can't see a straight line and everything I cut or measure is always slightly out in some way lol.   Don't think I'll push it for getting the living room and bedroom one's done today that might be asking a bit too much. 
 
Am off to get a shower and dressed just now as we may need to go to B&Q for a new battery for Alan's drill.
 
Will be back later to do some blog hopping whilst keeping lots of tissues on hand for my dripping nose. 
 
Loads of love to all
 
Alison xx
