Happy (Bank Holiday Monday) morning! :)
With any luck I am currently enjoying a lie in or catching up on a few chapters of my current book before having to get up.
I've been away all weekend so not managed to make my card for this week's prompt yet - but if all goes to plan I shall manage a bit of crafting later and be back to share my creation.
This week we're delving into the prompt jar for our inspiration and here's what it yielded:
My mind is already whirring away. ;-)
Happy crafting!
ETA: Well, here I am back to share the card I finally managed to make today! :)
I spent some time this morning sorting and organising my stamp and die sets into my new Avery Elle pockets and then deciding what to add to my new Raskog trolley - I need to get some sort of dividers for the inside, but since Ikea no longer stocks any of the Antonius dividers it's very difficult to work out what could do the job instead. Hm... for now I have my Notudden boxes with most frequently used stamps and dies, and the 6x6 pads I reach for the most and other bits and bobs... very nice.
Anyway, for this week's prompt I decided to use some of the new Basic Grey Mon Ami stash I bought recently.
Paper: Basic Grey
Stamps: Avery Elle
Dies: Avery Elle, Lawn Fawn, MFT, QuicKutz
Enamel dots: Teresa Collins
Other: sewing machine, 3D foam, glossy accents
So, plenty of navy in those BG papers, stitching comes in the form of the machine stitching round the angled bit, and the stitched vellum clouds which are Lawn Fawn dies.
I recently purchased this set by Avery Elle called Custom Panels:
...based on this video by Jennifer McGuire:
Anyway, not much got done in the grand scheme of things today, so I think I might just go and park myself in front of the telly and try and catch up with my DVD rental list!
Lovely card Nat - those papers are great. Rain and clouds seem to be on trend at the moment (and not just on paper, given the pouring rain outside at the moment!)
Yes, I saw that Jennifer Maguire video too. Must not buy more dies. Must not buy more dies.

Such a lovely card Nat. The background papers are gorgeous and I love the bold red for Dad, really makes it stand out.
