HAPPY NEW YEAR!


Happy New Year everyone! Hope you all had a good night last night and that there aren't too many bad heads today! It was a quiet night for me and I was in bed before Midnight, however, I didn't miss it because the fireworks and the boat horns woke me up (we are VERY near to the water!!). Didn't feel like making a big fuss of it this year as Tony wasn't here and it was also our anniversary - we met fourteen years ago on New Year's Eve. Anyway, in a better mood today and what a busy morning I've had. Woke up to a beautiful sunny day - what a great start to the year! Have done the washing, taken all the decorations down (yippee!!) and totally spring cleaned the conservatory where the majority of decorations and toys were. You would have smiled if you had seen me - cleaning windows and hoovering with Abba (yes, Abba!!) playing full blast on the stereo!

Thought I'd share this card with you - it's similar to the others I've been loading over the last couple of days and it's cheeky old Fluffles again! It was only when I'd put the card together that I realised the wording on the image wasn't so good but hey, what the heck!

Back to cooking the roast, got little mouths to feed!

Very pretty card Jo, and nothing a bit of black gel pen wouldn't sort out in the wording....

Happy New Year Jo!

Love your latest batch of cards (cat on the scales brought a smile to my face & it's a PB stamp I don't have, hmmm can feel my credit card getting nervous lol)

See you've been spending, join the club! - did you get some of the new Penny Black spring releases, I couldn't resist!
Hope you like your bellas, but need to warn you, they are very 'collectible' too!!!

Adorable ... sometimes that sentiment is right for a birthday ... just depends on the year.

Week 2 of Techniques

It’s the second week of Tando’s FB Live and the tutorial was by Jane Royston. This week the colours are more my style. I didn’t have the exact supplies so had to improvise a little. This was the end result... I love doing these tutorials.  I put aside time for me on a Saturday morning and just get lost in the moment...all worries are forgotten for an hour or so.  I would highly recommend it.

Chocolate Somethings

Friday again and Half Term has started! The boys finished school yesterday so hopefully, we've got a fun day together! The challenge on Stamp Something this week is chocolate - everybody's favourite! and there's one stamp I turn to when that word is mentioned. I've followed the sketch on Mojo Monday for this card. The image is from Penny Black and has been coloured with Promarkers. Cardstock is Bazzill Bling and papers are Doodlebug. Matted the image onto some c.s. which has been run through the Cuttlebug and threaded some ribbon through using SU slot punch. Finally added a brad from my stash . A big thank you to Jose for helping me with my images......love the way some of you girls have been putting a sneak peek at the top of your posts and Jose was nice enough (and clever enough) to explain how to do it. Hope you all have a great weekend.
