Hello lovely ladies
Time for a brand new challenge at ATCAS and for the next fortnight our lovely and talented Michele is your hostess . Michele has chosen a super code word for us this time round and the DT have once again outdone themselves and created some amazing cards.
Lots of things came to mind for this code word firstly my lovely husband but he wasn’t prepared to be photographed . I did try to get a snap shot of him but you would of thought I was the paparazzi trying to get a pic of a politician coming out of a starlets home at 5.00am in the morning ! Definitely ” no press ” from Mr P. The doglets next but I couldn’t get a group shot of the three little buggers as they kept fidgeting ! So my next thought was this …….
An old comfy sofa that we had many years ago it was guaranteed that if you sat on it for more than 10 minutes you would fall asleep and it was our families favourite spot for cuddles. The four of us would pile on when the boys were little and read stories or watch TV, 10 minutes later we would all be snoozing blissfully away. The sofa is long gone but its memories are as clear as day.
My fab non cuddly Cameo helped me out here, I paper pieced the sofa and popped it up with foam the sentiment lamp and border are all created with the Cameo.
We would love for you to join us at ATCAS it’s always a pleasure to see your amazing creations and the lucky winner will receive 3 super digs from Scribbles Designs from their online store.
Before I go a huge, a huge thank you for all for the beautiful cards I received this week, more tears from me after seeing these amazing pieces of art and for all of your kind words, they are all proudly displayed in my living room. You ladies really are the best and I have to say my spirits have been lifted immensely by your kindness. Not only that but Mr P became a little teary eyed reading your messages and was very impressed with your card making skills. Im making the rounds slowly with my thank you’s so please bear with me. I will be having another MRI this week my specialist wants to operate to relieve pressure in my bone marrow, so fingers crossed that I get good results and don’t have to have surgery.
Wishing you all a wonderful weekend
Marie

Brilliant take on the challenge and I could just do with sitting down on that gorgeous setee, Fab colours and great lamp and sentiment.

How clever to use a couch for “cuddly”! I love it and love this card. Your memories sound so nice and full of fun too Marie. I love the paper piecing on your couch too. Hugs, Brenda

Bless you lovely Marie, I didn’t realise things had got so bad for you and your family. Sending huge hugs from Buckingham and hoping that all those leglets go on a healing spree very soon! I just love your card and recognise the sofa as being the place to be for cuddles. We have sofas dotted around our house and you only need to sit down for a minute and your arms will be full of assorted cats, husbands and children! Vicky xx
It’s a brilliant take on the prompt Marie!
I appreciate the humor as well 😉
Greetings from Chicago~
Marie sorry you hubby wouldn’t be photographed 🙂 I immediately thought of cuddling up for a snuggle with my furry things when I saw your couch. What a great take on the code word. Love it
