Sketch File has an ongoing sketch challenge which is carrying on from December. The sketch as always is a good one  and can be used any way round just as long as we can still make it out on your project.

 and the card I made

The card was made with letters from one of the Kanban baby sheets but I can't get to my box to find out which one!

Thanks for stopping by. :)

Kanban Thursday

It's Kanban Thursday again and I bet you thought I had forgotten about blogging, but I haven't :) I have three more Kanban card to show and as I said before, there are a lot of people out there with loads of Kanban stuff still so if I can give just a little bit of inspiration then I'm happy to keep making the cards! I was asked to make a couple of leaving cards at the end of last week so they were the cards for my blog post today. I also got some new Kanban stamps last week too so it would've been rude not to play with them :)

Kanban Thursday

Well that's another week which as flown out of my life all too quickly! Time isn't slowing down as I asked at the beginning of the year so I think I will just have to learn to work faster lol Our internet went down at about 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon and it didn't come back on until about  11 last night so I got my Kanban DT cards ready for next week. 

There is great excitement at Kanban towers and with this excitement in mind I made a further Kanban card. On the 4th March we are launching our new challenge over on the Kanban blog.

Kanban Thursday

Good morning world, it's an awful long time since I was last here, well, 8 days to be precise. I added these cards and materials on Monday evening so I could just add a bit of dialogue before they went live.......and promptly forgot about them. Apologies if you received this post as it was lol. I have had a pig of a week (and some very nice bits :))but I think I'm coming out of the other side, my load seems to be lightening :). 

I have made loads since I was here last but have just been photographing them and sticking them in my 'Edit' folder. I am going to make some computer time today to start sorting them out so there might be loads of posts over the next few days. I haven't joined in with the 'challenge' on FB a Card a Day Blogging, the Facebook page  I also need to update my side bar with my design team members as some have left all of the DTs I'm on.

It was my wedding anniversary on Tuesday and we went out for a lovely meal on Tuesday evening to a TexMex restaurant in town where we used to go an awful lot when we first got together. I think the fact that hubby lived across the road at the time and it was often easier than cooking lol. Anyway when we finished the meal we were just getting ready to leave when he presented me with a white envelope and in it were.........tickets to see Gary Barlow in Sheffield next Wednesday (I think). I am so looking forward to it. Congratulation on picking up your gong yesterday Gazza :)

So onto my cards....these are my DT cards this week and I'm actually pleased with all three for a change. I still love working with Kanban  materials, the quality is wonderful.

Take care and have a good day whatever you may be up to :)

Hi everyone, I cannot believe that it is six weeks since we came back from Zakynthos...it doesn't seem five minutes since we were looking forward to going!! It's just over 300 days till we go back again so I suppose that will be upon us before we know it lol.
