Oldie But A Goodie New Challenge

Morning all

Hope you are all keeping well.  Hugs to those that need it.

Welcome to our new challenge, and the theme we are following this fortnight is Buttons as chosen by our lovely DT member Dips.  This certainly got me thinking, it's easy when it's flowers etc but buttons are a big challenge for me, so I hunted down my trusty LOTV stamps and created the following card, hope you like it.

I even went for a different colour scheme that I have never used but thought this went together quite well.

Why not pop along to OBAG and see what the rest of the team have created and also join in the fun, you never know you might be a winner.

Love to all

At long last

Morning All

It's raining just for a change mind, are you hating all this wet dreary weather as much as me, it makes the old bones ache like mad.

Well at long last I have sorted myself a website out the previous one just proved to be too expensive at £30.00 a month before I had even made any sales this one with Wix is free unless I want to upgrade but for the moment it will do, I have uploaded most of my candles now, a few cards and also my soap, am targeting only the UK market at present but of course if people want to order from abroad they could contact me and I could sort out a price for postage etc.

My website is Here if you would like to pop along and take a look see.

I have to take Bella to the vets this morning she is not very well again, keeps crouching down and whimpering in pain poor love so her appt is at 10.00.

I also have an appointment at the Dr's to sort out my medication as I think it needs tweaking a little so that is at 4.40 today.  Apart from that I have candles to make and DT work to do and I also have an order in for 4 cards so will crack on with them today, busy bee buzzing around all day.

Well I will pop along also and do a bit of blog hopping sorry for not keeping up with everyone this last couple of weeks but the pain just gets you down sometimes and you need to take a break and just rest up.

Love to all

Morning All

Well we have another new challenge for you over at Open-Minded Crafting Fun and this week the theme is Monochrome.  I am loving the DT work as it challenges me into trying things I have not really worked on before i.e this weeks theme, Monochrome.  I have a beautiful image to work with from

Delicious Doodles

Winners Prize 4 Digi images 

How stunning is this image, I just loved working with this, have used wink of stella in silver to hightlight the wolf at the back of the card, acrylic flowers, papers are from my crafty mate Rachel's stash as I started making this card at her house one play afternoon.

Why not pop over and see the rest of the team's work and join the challenge some beautiful images are up for grabs.

this fortnight you can play with

I have chosen the bottom line twine, blue and buttons and made a boy's card which I don't tend to do very often.

I couldn't find any buttons to match this card so decided I would use my Martha Stewart punch as it has 4 different buttons on it so came up with this.

Why not pop over and join in the fun and also to see what my team mates have been up to.  We also have a new team member Debbi who has joined us so we wish her welcome.

AWOL Again

Dear All

Just a quick post to say sorry for being AWOL yet again, I have been bad all week with serious back ache and my fibromyalgia flaring up so have not been able to do very much at the computer, mainly been resting and watching TV this week.

I have no card to show you today but just wanted to say I am still around and will catch up as soon as I am able.

Love Alison x
