Peaceful Wishes

Okay, I wanted to put this card up, so here is my second posting tonight lol - I absolutely love making this card for Christmas. I first made something like this last year, this beautiful set by Stampin Up "Lovely as a Tree" is just outstanding. Nothing else can be said for this set, it is just perfect for absolutely everything, and for me its, just lovely for the more sophisticated christmas scenes. I made this for my partner's parents, and they loved it as did my partner, he was very proud of me, which was lovely xx

Windy windy Wedsnesday!!!

Hi guys

Well its blowing an absolute hoolie down in Weymouth, Dorset at the moment, its yukky lol

Thank you so much for the lovely comments that have been left, its lovely to see I still have a few people that read my little ramblings!!! ha ha

Well as promised, here is my second card that I have made, this one if for my partner's father, whose birthday is boxing day!!! Hope he likes it, I love this set by Stampin Up, its just fabulous for all the men in your life.

Birthday Lillies

Hello everyone

Yet again a long time since I last posted, but with the kiddlings in bed and lots of peace and quite sat downstairs on my own, I thought I would do a posting.

I have been so busy its been ridiculous, also been quite unwell over the last few months, which is not like me either. From liver problems, to gallbladder and now my eyes!!! yikes Lots of doctors appointments, and a very understanding and loving partner, thank goodness, not sure what I would have done without him, probably moved nearer to my brother if I am honest lol, which is still a very strong possibility in my life at the moment - you need your family around you in times of crisis. I have to go into hospital to have an op on my gallbladder for a start, so not looking forward to that in the new year!!

I have actually been making some cards!!! I know, unbelievable lol - My partner asked me if I would make some for his family, and of course I said I would. Its been lovely to get back into the crafting that I have loved for over three years, and I can feel it drawing me back in to a certain extent lol - but with no urge to go out and buy stuff, which is a very good thing as with no money that makes things a little difficult!!! so am learning to use what I have for once, and thats a whole lot of stuff!!!!!! shesh - I have made some christmas cards, and some birthday cards, that I hope to share with you over the next few days. The first is a Birthday Card for his mum. She loves lillies, so my first thought was this beautiful decoupage picture that I had in my stash, actually already made up, so it was very nice and easy for me. He loved it, and so will his mum apparently, which is always nice to know. I will have to wait till January to find out mind you!! ha ha





















Well, I have no idea if anybody actually reads my blog anymore, but you never know!!! I will be back tomorrow with another card, this time I think it will be a christmas card.

I am in the process of making some more christmas cards at the moment, for the children in my life, and that includes my own and my partners beautiful three. Should be fun if nothing else lol.

Happy crafting and good night xx

Just for Debbie

I have finally made a card, its been sooooo long. I love this Rubber Romance stamp, its just beautiful for all your girlfriends in your life.

This was for my friend Debbie, who turned 35 at the weekend, unfortunately due to the fact that I wasn't very well, we couldn't join her for her birthday celebrations, but hope to make up for it when my partner turns 40 in a few weeks lol!!!

The papers are My Minds Eye, a huge pad called Magnolia, it has 180 sheets of the most gorgeous designs, so I will be using this till the end of time.

Coloured in using Copic Ciao markers, still loving these, and have finally used up my E00 skin white lol!!! Me being poorly has given me back my love of stamping and colouring, as I am not allowed to go to work at the moment, sitting on the sofa colouring is very therapeutic

Snow Children!!!

Well, Weymouth was under a lovely big blanket of that white fluffy stuff, that we call Snow!!!! ha ha

Now you have to understand how exciting that is for us Weymouthians, cause being right on the seashore, we very very very hardly ever ever get any snow at all, lol so you can imagine how absolutely delighted my children were this morning, especially when they didn't have to go to school as well.

I worked from home, via the internet!!! boooo and the girls went and played snowballs and built a snow lady he he

Oooh so funny, this photo is of my three, with my eldest, being extremely grumpy as the middle one had just put a lovely nice wet and very cold snowball down her back!!!! can you tell ha ha
Absolutely love this photo, shows just how happy they were to be making that much awaited for snow lady. This was the first innings, they finished it off a few hours later lol
