It's Too Darn Hot...

Hi everyone!!! Hope you're having a lovely Wednesday and oh my...isn't it HOT!?!?

Now, I'm never one to complain...I usually take everything in my stride but the one thing that really gets to me...hot weather, I hate it! :( I just go into meltdown and at the moment, I'm thinking of all things...COLD...snowmen, igloos, snow and mmm, ice cream!! Copious amounts of ice cold, ice cream...

Anyway, enough about me, here's my cards for today...I hope you like them!
Both of these cards, use exactly the same technique as on my previous post, using Kuretake's Calligraphy pens but I wanted to show you, how different it can look, using it in different ways and colours.
This card shows how pretty these calligraphy flowers look....

And this card, shows how versatile they can look, using different colour pens and turning the flowers into tiny, little snowflakes doodles onto a Spellbinders die cut bauble!



Thank you for stopping by and taking a look at my little creations. I've got one more technique that I want to share with you all in my next post, using these fabulous pens and I really hope you'll come back to check it out!!

See you all soon and thank you so much for all your get well wishes!! I'm feeling a little better today and I finally have a voice...somewhat gravelly but it's a voice!!
I'll be around to see all your lovely creations, asap!!
Love Emma

  6. Two more fabulous creations - love what you've achieved with the Kuretake pens.
    Would you believe it if I said I'd been quite cold today? That's what comes of working in an air conditioned office and being under one of the ceiling vents - its ridiculous because we could quite easily wear boots and thermals to work even in the height of summer - problem is the heat then hits you with a force when you leave work for the day - ah well there's no pleasing us is there !!!

    It has been hot hasn't it, although I think you've been a good 5 degrees up on us. We've had rain tonight with amazing thunderdtorms around York, just the odd rumble here thankgoodness.
    Keep cool and glad to hear you are on the mend.
