Its those pesky Mice again

Today I've had to go to Wales with my Sister so I hope Mr Blogger is on his best behaviour and posts this schedule post. It's for my Everybody Art Challenge which is a fabulous sketch, love sketches.
Now my glossy accents was very naughty and cracked, I've a feeling my room was too cold so when I touch the glasses it just went, but the chances are if they were real glasses they wouldn't be on the floor unless they were broken.
My MS zigzag embosses and I checked my card to see whether only one side embossed but it looks like the camera is being difficult too.
I've used My Minds Eye Penny Lane again, that pack I brought from The Range is so useful. Since the sketch is quite busy and I want to give this card to a man I've kept it quite simple but I'm really please with the embossed letters. Its a Crafts Too embossing folder which I've used with a white core cardstock and the letters are a perfect fit in the orange coloured Woodware punch, I'm kicking myself now cos I should've have brought the numbers too, when I was at The Art of Craft.
Not sure whether I shall be back tonight, we're going to playing it by ear, but will schedule tomorrows post just in case.

Hi Debby,
If you hadn't said anything I would have puzzled as to how you managed to make the glasses look cracked. It really looks as though it's meant. Great image, great card.

I know I have been away from my blog for a while and have not had time to hop but goodness me, Debby, it hasn't been all that long and yet you seem to have made at least a dozen cards. How do you do that and how do you make every one of them so special! I'm afraid I won't be able to comment on them all individually but I do so love this image and your card is a real treat! Warmest wishes, Lesley
