Good afternoon everyone, I hope all is well in your world.
Well, I got on the bus on Saturday and off I went to Derby bus station, with the intention of getting on the first bus to leave there, which turned out to be heading out to Belper via lots of little villages. I had a lovely ride and although it was cold, the sun was shining beautifully. I'm afraid I didn't take any photographs at all as I couldn't manage to walk as far as the river gardens, but I did enjoy doing a bit of shopping before going into George's Tradition for my pensioner special lunch of their delicious fish and chips, bread and butter and a pot of tea, (I chose not to have the mushy peas) all for under a fiver. Then another little stroll and hopped on a bus for a more direct route home. A thoroughly enjoyable day, I must use my bus pass more often :o)
Anyhow, on to my card for today!
A very simple card really, I just used every die in my new Anja Squares set from Marianne. I cut them alternately from white and yellow card and layered them onto the 6x6 card (which I had folded and cut) with foam squares :o)

Sounds like you had a fabulous day. Sometimes a day like that is more energizing than anything else.
Your card makes me think of a lovely old fashioned snuggly quilt.

Very effective too. Glad you had a good day - I always say its a good day if I eat out and don't need to cook when I get home. Result.
Glad you had a lovely day out and good use of your bus pass. Love your yellow and white die card, it is certainly worth using the set together. xx Flora

Aww just catching up, so sorry you are in such pain again and please never apologise for not visiting. I always appreciate people's comments whenever they have the time. This is so pretty, love rhe Spring colours. Hope you are better soon, don't overdo it. Your day out sounds lovely.
This is beautiful. I honestly don't quite understand how you were able to make this lovely pattern even though I read your post. I closed my eyes and tried to envision taking the bus and having the fish and chips lunch with you...chilly and all. Leaving the camera at home didn't hurt a bit..haha
this is really effective Jackie, I like the colours and the dies,

Hi Jackie, lovely card - those dies are so beautiful. Even before I had a bus pass I used to do exactly what you did - I called them my little adventures because it was fun to hop on a bus not knowing exactly where I would end up :) Elizabeth xx
Hi Jackie, sounds like you had a lovely day out! I love your card, the yellow makes me think of spring!
