They say that the Number Seven is a luck number, well it has been very lucky for all you bloggers who have stepped into the Playground under the careful eye of Miss Di and Parsnip for the past seven years.
I am ashamed to say that I have been absent with out leave for quite a while but I got fed up of being thrown in the duck pond by Sarn.
Long post - sorry
This is a dreadful photo and the image really does look better in a paler colour. But I wanted to do a pink card.
Pink to make the boys wink, wonder if that is why Di like pink?
I have chosen this image as it is because of this Penny Black stamp (Clusters) that I have had two fabulous and faithful followers.
The lovely Sarn had entered, I think the PB Saturday Challenge using this image and I could not believe how she made such a great job of colouring it, due to the very small petals.
I left her a comment saying I had this stamp and how I was in awe of her colouring, or words to that effect, as it is years and years ago.
Di must have read my comment as she left me a message saying that Sarn had coloured it by using the Promarkers fine tips which she had given her to try and that she had some of these as blog candy.
Well I had never entered any blog candy and I never have since but on this occasion I did, not expecting to win at all.
BUT I did and so did everyone else who entered. Totally unexpected but so thankful.
I have bought quite a few since then but they are no longer available, mores the pity.
That's Di, so generous.
I have been very lucky to meet Di, she came to Leeds on a School Reunion and we met up at LOTV in Leeds and I was a tad early so went into the shop and was browsing when I felt to look at the window and there she was with her face pressed up against the window pulling a fund face, well it could have been a funny face but it also could have been her normal face?????!!!!
I have suffered through her recipes and the Christmas concerts in the Playground to be honest I am surprised that poor Parsnip is still in one piece.
I have a great respect for Di and her commitment to the Playground.
Thank you and I have written 100 lines to say that I must do better!
Thank so much for popping and any comments you are kind enough to leave.
Sorry for the long post but Di deserves it.
Oops for got to mention that there are lots of snippets on this card.
