I hate doing the laundry...

Hi all! I've been on holiday for the past week and a half but we decided not to go abroad and instead explore the area (East Sussex, England) that we moved to nearly four years ago. We've had a great time spending time with our dogs on different beaches, trying out new restaurants and exploring towns. The problem with staying at home though is that you just end up using up your whole wardrobe instead of being limited to what's in your suitcase! You won't believe how much washing I had to do yesterday and now my pile of my ironing is a mile high! Groan...will do it tonight while the weather has cooled down.

So of course I thought this Anya image would be perfect for today! I'm not sure if I like this card but perhaps that's because I just hate anything associated to do with ironing!!! I used this week's Card Positioning Systems sketch.



Papers/cardstock: DCWV Nana's Kitchen stack
Mediums: Primsacolor pencils, Sansador
Stamps: TGF Anya, Personal Impressions sentiments
Accents: Bazzill ribbon, gems from stash
Tools: Nestabilities label, square scallop and square dies

    I know what you mean! I've been away couple of weeks and I've spent most of the day doing laundry. Luckily the weather is just perfect for hanging the laundry outside to dry.

    I love the frilly ribbon and the bright cheerful colours. Gorgeous combination of dps.
