Faded and worn

LOL- ok ok, that's the title of your freebie today, but I feel a bit like that sometimes- hahahahaLOL. I had a wonderful quiet weekend for a change- yup even stayed at home on Friday night- well it wasn't the plan at the time, I fell asleep on the couch waiting for Hubby to finish showering- ROTF- HOW BAD IS THAT(Stop laughing Renee!).. hahaha. Well to be very honest we had been at the pub down the road with friends after work in the afternoon so I had already had a few and then I relaxed when we got home and it was- "goodnight"...LOL. Hubby kindly just put a blanket on me and called the friends to say we weren't coming.. I woke up Saturday morning like the energizer Bunny- LOL LOL. Full of energy and no hangover! LOL LOL. And on Saturday we lost the rugby!!(*sniff sniff*) so no celebrating after that game! Lots of moans and "couch coaches" but no celebrating-lol. So it was a rest for me which has been great!!

Thanks sooo much for all the comments and reply's again- to all of you, I don't think I have EVER had so many "TY's" at 4 shared before! Big MWAH'a again!! And I tell you, this is one of the reasons I LOVE DOING WHAT I DO- Melinda, or "momtoanAngel" has sent me her LO of Belle using the Sweet Belle freebie that I made for her(shared in a older post). I'm sharing it with you today as it's such a special LO and I was sooo happy to have helped such a wonderful person out when she needed something special she couldn't find. Melinda your LO and your support and encouragement are all the "Thanks I need.." This is a beautiful LO with such a wonderful tribute that it deserved to go here. Hugs to you.

My Bygone elegance Vintage/heritage overlay papermakers are in store now and are at the moment on SALE- These come with a Commercial license too. Preview is in Friday's post. They will only be on sale for one week.
There is also a Crop and chat on at DSO Monday, June 25 at 9:00 pm Eastern/6:00 pm Pacific, join us in the Chat Room (make sure you’re registered first) and receive a template to join in- post your LO in the gallery and get a free mini kit too!

And your freebie today is "my weekends" experiments- LOL, I was practising "threading" and making overlays- I just seem to be addicted to doing those! LOL, It's a "faded and worn" bloom with lacing. 1 curled ribbon and a paper that's also faded and worn- A little different but I liked the effects on the flower.. No drop shadows (preview only)

I'm doing a jig. I'm here first!!!!

First, that LO of Belle is just too gorgeous. Brought wet stuff to my eyes.

Second, I won't laugh. I had your share and woke up with a carpet growing on my tongue yesterday.

Third, cool mini. I love ribbons and I like the "stitches" in the flower.

Thanks

So sorry you lost in the rugby game. :( At least you had lots of rest and felt wonderful on Saturday. I know it would've been perfect to also win, but those are things you cannot help.

Melinda's layout is wonderful and very heartfelt, thanks so much for sharing it. :)The kit is very beautiful too.

It's quite different the flower in today's download. Very appropriate for grungy layouts. :)Thanks so much for sharing your experiments with us and best wishes. :o)
