PBSC Week 184 Anything Goes

 

Well here's something different from the cards I usually post. I was asked to make a 100th card for a friend of a friend and this is what I came up with. It was nice to make a floral card for a change and this stamp sure looks good for so many occassions.

Had a few dramas this week, Mum had a fall, no breaks thank goodness but a lot of pain which I now hope is under control by medication. Monty was crook on Sunday and required a vet visit but he's bounced back yet again.

Here's one of the vireya's in the garden which is in full bloom just at the moment she's called: Kisses and Tess wanted in on the photo shoot.

Cheers for now

Penny Black Saturday Challenge- Week 181

 

Kath have I suprised you with a mini Buddy image card for this week's challenge? I love doing sketches and hope I did justice to Domi's lovely sketch.

Life is pretty hectic and it was my birthday this week, I managed to buy some craft goodies, a new Spellbinders star circles die set, a MS punch, some more distress inks and then another store close to us had Copics 30% off. Well tell me who could resist that??

Cheers & Happy Christmas to one and all

PBSC Week 178 Green & Trees

Hope I've just managed to get this loaded and published in the nick of time for this week's challenge which is for Green & Trees. This is the original rubber stamp so she takes up nearly the whole card so no room for being ultra creative.

What week we've had, an Aunt's funeral on Monday, flea bomb the house Tuesday, and later on a storm passed through and broke off a huge branch on our tree, had to get up on a ladder to do some quick tree pruning. 

Been busy creating another one of my mini scrapbooks for an ex player so it's got to be finished this week as Lance leaves to play for St Helen's in the Super League.

Cheers for now, happy crafting

Penny Black Saturday Challenge - Gold & Presents

 

Here I am back in bloggyland with a card for this weeks Penny Black Saturday Challenge which is Gold and Presents and this cutie fits the bill that's for sure. Managed to get in a bit of crafty shopping done recently and found 2 lovely Xmas embossing folders which this is one and a nice MS holly punch and another holly die which has already been put to good use.

I've just got into the 21st century with my 1st laptop, so it's a bit of a challenge using Windows 7 and nagivating around, there's not enough time in the day to learn everything and be computer savy when I'd much rather be crafting.

Cheers for now

I'm back!!

 

We'll it's been a long time between posts, anyone miss me?

We're in our new house now so it's taken all my time packing and unpacking and getting things in ship shape order.  Tess has coped really well with the move but it's been harder for Monty with his lack of mobility but he has been out & about  sniffing around the garden. The first night here they were like bloodhounds attracted no doubt by the scent of the previous cats that lived here.

I have got a crafting space downstairs but it will take awhile to get everything organised properly that's for sure. Decided to join in this weeks Penny Black Saturday Challenge Age is just a number with this new PB stamp, how could I resist this?

Cheers for now
