Wedding Day

 Evening everybody 

Not much to report today it’s been cold and dismal so an ideal time to do some crafting done, I spent most of this morning putting inserts into all my cards that I have made recently and then putting them with envelopes into cello bags oh what fun I hear you say.  

This afternoon I made a wedding card not particularly happy with this one will have to try again with the same image but perhaps a different layout.

I then had to dash to the docs, found a lump in my boob so went to get it checked have been referred to breast clinic,  Anyhow here is the card I made today

I need to chat with my brother family crisis lol. Will comment on your wonderful makes once I have put the family problems back into the box lol

Exciting News but it’s not my sshhhh secret

 Afternoon All

Exciting news the housing association my daughter works for has asked me to design new home cards for when new tenants move into one of their properties, so have been trolling the internet trying to find either digi images or clear stamps to buy to create these cards but either I am not putting the correct info in the search engine or there is not a lot of stuff out there, can anyone help guide me to the right place to buy please.

These are what I have managed so far

I wanted to make a simple card with no layers as then it becomes more expensive.  The first three cards are 6x6 cards.

Love this sweet image

This is a LOTV digi image

This one is layered bit a much smaller card think it measures 4x6

Will have my dinner then do some commenting, at the moment Bella is rolling over my feet whilst playing with teddy, it’s not a very clear photo as the little devil was rolling about.

Well oven’s beeping so dinner ready 

See you on the other side.

Oldie but a Cutie

 Evening everybody

Dinner is in the slow cooker, chicken curry tonight just put the water on for the rice so thought I would come and say a huge thank you to Brenda who helped sort my blog out what a long winded convoluted way of putting a page on it’s not as easy as it used to be that’s for sure.  There must be an easier way.

Todays card is another Christmas card and this image I bought years ago from hobby house and found when having a sort through.  I have no coloured ribbon so ended up using my alcohol pens to colour a white ribbon must go shopping but hate going into town it’s a 30 mile round trip lol.

  Will be back after dinner to do some commenting

Love Alison

Being a bit thick

I have a secret and made cards

 Afternoon all

I have a secret shhhh and I’m dying to tell but I have to wait just a little longer so watch this space, I am so excited.  

Todays card I found in my box of made cards, not sure why I haven’t shown it, can’t even remember when I actually made it.  

I am just about to make Banana and Choc Chip muffins for tomorrow’s sewing group.  If anyone wants the recipe let me know and I will create a recipe page.
