After a surprisingly quiet night we woke up to a dry morning, which was a relief after all the rain last night.
How I miss not being out in the country (?) all the time. The trees are beautiful, there were birds tweeting in them and ducks in the water. But on the other hand, I also love living in the centre of Birmingham and having everything close at hand. And David likes being in Birmingham too - no need to get down the weed hatch!
I did my stint in the refreshments tent and managed to to gorge on the lovely cakes, but had to hang onto the tent during the gusts of wind.
I am publishing this before the bonfire starts, so I have something for tomorrow. It is raining now. So fingers crossed.
Another birthday card for a guy who works on our moorings. It was for his sister. I used a photograph taken on the Llangollen, which is a canal he know well. I matted it using Nestabilities in yellow and pink (colours matching the boat).
I used another square card blank and matted a Cuttlebugged yellow panel over some pink card which I edged with a Martha Stewart punch and wrapped some pink ribbon around it before sticking it onto the left hand side of the card.
To finish off I added some green swirls and leaves and three pink blossoms and a pink bow. The sentiment is a silver peel-off
