Bored with Christmas Cards

 Afternoon all

Hoe you are well and welcome to my new followers.  I was getting bored with making Christmas cards and decided to play with a stencil I bought at the Exeter Show in September, I have hardly ever used stencils so this is a learning curve for me, but I love dandelions it reminds me of my eldest daughter who right into her 30’s believed that the seeds from dandelions were fairies lol.  For those that followed me years ago know that my daughter Pauline stopped speaking to me in 2003 when she got married although she did tolerate me at family gatherings, things came to a head about two years ago and now she has cut me out of her life altogether but life goes on.

So here is my card 

I used Tim Holtz distress inks paper and card from stash.  I am off to cook dinner just now am making homemade beef burgers and sweet potato chips made in the actifry with homemade onion rings, corn on the cob with a garlic dip.

Love Alison

Fire surround

 Morning all

Well the fire surround is finished, I have such a clever hubby even if I do spend most of my time thinking of ways to murder him without getting caught lol ( I do love him really).  So here is a picture 

Not too bad a job and of course my paintwork is a dream ha ha.

Sarah came over for a birthday tea made her a veggie chilli and we had a meat one, she loved her sewing tote bag and is showing it on her Facebook page so will probably end up making more for her friends. 

I will post later again today with another card so that’s it for now catch you later.
