Nightmare Windows Update!

I have had a nightmare couple of weeks following a Windows 7 update that my PC appeared to have issues with. It completely killed the OS stone dead and I had to reformat. It has taken me over a week to get email back, and bookmarks etc. It’s still not running 100% smoothly but I am so behind already with my DT comments. So if you are a fellow teamie, my apologies for not having been around your blogs for a bit. Also apologies to my team at The ABC Challenge as I should have been uploading a card for them a couple of weeks back and I just couldn’t access my files from my pc to do so.

It’s obviously way too late now to be entering any challenges with this as I clearly made it to be uploaded to my blog almost a fortnight ago now, but just in case anyone clicked on my name on the ABC blog expecting to find my Wedding themed card here it is!

The papers are from Bearly Mine, which I printed out at 8” and then again at 6” so that I wouldn’t lose the beauty of the border by chopping it off. The image is a Bentley Bear digi that I downloaded. The flowers are from Wild Orchid and the sentiment was part of the Bentley download, printed onto and then trimmed out using a nestie.

The two little images inside the hearts are both printed onto shrink plastic and then shrunk. The top one is a repeat of the main image and the bottom one is a church stamp from Cuddly Buddly.

It’s so long ago now I can’t even remember how I coloured it, lol, but I believe it was prismas and OMS, certainly looks like that when I enlarge the image anyhow! I can’t check as the card went off to be given to a friend of my Daughter for her wedding day.  The main image has been matted onto toning colours of DCWV card which I cut out with various sizes of one of the Go Kreate Dies. At least the bride loved the card apparently!

My Daughter created the rhyme herself, and I am including it just so you can see how lovely the Bearly Mine papers look on the inside of the card.

I am hoping to be back later with this fortnight’s card for the Lexi Creations Challenge so watch this space, lol.
