Hi everyone at last have resized my photo and can post on here. This was a card I made for one of my neighbours for her daughters 60th Birthday. I took the photo and forgot I'd not put the number on. I put it in the gap under Happy Birthday. She was really pleased with it.




Last night I made a couple of very quick cards using some of the free papers from a craft magazine . I have promised myself to use them all up instead of hoarding them. This year I want to try and make a hole in the mountain of craft stuff I have aquired over the past 8 years of playing about making cards. I will try and take a picture of the cards tomorrow if I get time.




We have had some more snow here today, but not much . Fingers crossed it stays away tonight.


Hubby's just told me it's supposed to be getting a bit warmer at weekend. I can't wait lets hope it gets rid of this aweful snow and ice. Hope everyone is safe and warm. Thanks for continuing to visiting my blog.

Sorry I have not posted for a while I have only made two cards since Xmas and I forgot to take a photo of the first one. I have managed a photo of the other will resize it tonoght and try and post it. I have been working in my craft room, slowly sorting and refiling all my papers and card, stamps and other bits. I have managed to get rid of three bags of rubbish, Not that it looks any different. But at least I know and feel a bit better.
I have been feeling very down at the moment. I think it as alot to do with the weather. I just wish the snow would clear up and go. I have been out to work, but that is the only place I have been since before Christmas, so that is not helping. Hope to post something interesting soon.

Happy New Year

I'm sorry I haven't posted over Christmas. I haven't done any crafting. I've been very busy getting rid of clutter. I thought I would have a good start for the new year. Managed to get rid of 7 dustbins bags full of stuff. I even managed to get other half to go through his wardobe and fill 1 bin bag of stuff. Now thats a miracle.
I have been in my craft room for two days sorting things out and re-organising things. Hopefully so things will be easier to find. I have thrown two bags of rubbish away. Not that you would notice. It's still bursting at the seams. I have promised my self not to buy anything else in 2010 until I've used some of my stuff up. Hm!!! I wonder how long that one will last.
I would like to wish you all a Very Happy New Year and a healthy fun crafting one, hugs to you all.

Special Christmas Cards
















I thought I'd show you three special Christmas cards I have made. I just have one more to make then I have finished all my cards for this year.





Every year I say I will start them earlier and then I don't. This year it has been harder to get them all done, due to making most of my presents as well. So next year I will definately plan better. I have really enjoyed making these cards so I hope you all like them.
