The builders will be knocking walls out of the house next week so my craft room has gone from this:

to this in the last couple of days:

My sitting room meanwhile is now doubling as a craft room - not a good look! The kitchen has been decanted to all corners of the house and now I'm exhausted. We're leaving home on Monday for a few days to stay at my Mum's down in North Northumberland as it's half term up here so hopefully we'll miss most of the mess.

I've managed a LIM card this afternoon with a bit of Chrissie's lateral thinking!

I was a bit stumped with this theme of cocktails - I know I have some chipboard and/or gel pieces of cocktail glasses but given all of the above I don't know where they are located. So I was sitting scratching my head when the idea of a peacock tail struck! I took a piece of A6 card and brayered it with a big and juicy ink pad then put it in the printer to overprint with the peacock image from Crafty Ann's and out popped a B&W photo of a peacock duh! I was about to redo it then wondered whether the glossy photo paper would brayer et voila this is what I ended up with.

Matted layers are cut with label one dies, Image has been mounted with pinflair gel and card is finished with a stamped sentiment and a bow.
