A Groovi Friday

Good morning all, hope your Friday has started well. I am just home after walking Tess and Eric and my goodness it is windy outside today....do take care all...

Now apparently Google is removing followers from our blogs....!!!!!!grrrrrr

So I have borrowed some information from my friend and fellow DT member Janet Pring

------------------------

Please note that if you follow my blog (or anyone else's) by friends connect and you haven't signed up by using a google account, google are removing you. Apparently now you can only use friends connect to follow a blog if you have a google account. If you are finding that you aren't seeing all the blogs you normally follow, it is beyond the control of the bloggers, so please don't think you are being blocked!

---------------------

I have to say I was getting quite upset when I was loosing followers, I thought I was doing something wrong on my blog and offending people...

So please sign in with a google account if possible....thanks...

Right back to today and I thought I would share some Groovi work with you....I have a taster session for crafters coming up in a few weeks , so I have been having a play....

Here is one of the samples that I have made,,,,it is just my take on it...so I hope you like it...

I do love this plate....already it is a favourite....and can be found here

I started by doing the outline and then let it relax....oh so that means time for tea and cake,,,,( shame , but it has to be done ) .

 

And then my favourite bit....the white work and some subtle colour....

For this one I used Spectrum Noir pencils.

I really loved making this and the best bit, everything was quickly put away in my storage ( now you know how I love storage..it's a crafter thing )

I attached the parchment to black card using brads.

If you have bad weather this weekend, Groovi is a brilliant way to spend some time sat inside in the warm, with that cup of tea and piece of cake...

I am off now to battle the shops and get some food in for the weekend...hungry boys and all that....oh they can eat....

Have a lovely Friday....

And I will see you soon,

Much love and hugs,,,,

Such a pretty design, Jo. I have to say, whilst I am not happy with followers being removed, I was quite relieved to find it wasn't just me. Like you, I thought I had upset people! xx

Beautiful groovi card, these plates are on my list to get ASAP. Hope the weather hasn't been too bad for you. How horrible to have followers removed! Must have been a bit worrying till you knew why. XX
