Just Because!

Hello to you All, I hope today is a good one for you and that you are keeping clear of this awful weather. We had high winds and loads of rain throughout the night, but it's calmed down now.

What a frustrating day I had yesterday. I had been trying to print out some music that our Conductor had emailed that's required for our next rehearsal. As there were twenty four sheets, I wondered if I could get them to print out double sided. Yes, my printer told me I could. So off I went, all going tickity boo, then I noticed a window popping up on my PC telling me to flip the pages over, well of course I flipped them over the wrong way so they were printing upside down. Anyhoo, to cut a long story short, the printing became stuck in the queue, and I couldn't cancel the job. I was the whole afternoon trying to sort it out, finally the the help of You Tube and much patience I finally managed to cancel the printing job. I've also had to buy more ink.....not a cheap purchase, and now I've managed to print the whole lot out and stuck down the pages.  I would have been cheaper buying the music score from Amazon.  As some of you might know it's Beethoven's 200 Anniversary this year and the Choral Society have been invited by the Inverness Chamber Orchestra to sing, along with the Dingwall Choral Society to sing the last movement of the 9th Symphony. You'll know it as The Ode to Joy. We will be singing it in it's original German. A huge piece of work , but very exciting albeit hard going for Sopranos as much of the chorus is so very high. I'm sure though that with around three hundred voices there will be a good few who will managed all the top A's.

So will all that yesterday, I didn't get into the craft room, but I've managed a little something today;

I'm working my way through these lovely LOTV floral stamps, I love this one and it's the first time it's been inked up. Copic Markers and white gel pen to colour and matted on to some rainbow coloured card. Distressed Oxides through  a stencil, not sure what brand it is, but I like it. Sentiment from Creative Stamping magazine, finishing off with a few clear gems. I think it's turned out really well.

Thank you for all the lovely comments on my last card, you are so very kind.
Off now to find some plastic sleeves  to put  these pages into, the glue should be dry by now.
Enjoy your weekend, and see you soon,
