You Make My Day Award


Perhaps it's not such a bad day today after all......no crafting stash for Mothers' Day, haven't been taken out to lunch nor had one made for me BUT I did get two very sweet handmade cards, three daffodils from our garden(!), a magazine (from Lewis's own pocket money!) and a luke warm cup of very strong black coffee all brought up to me on a tray in bed!! Bless them!! Plus, I also received this award from Tara. Thanks Tara, it really is appreciated :) I now, in turn, have to award this to five people and I've chosen Fran because not only is she inspirational but she also makes me laugh!, Denise my great blogging buddy in the States whose work I admire greatly, Katharina, another hugely talented lady, Jackie who reminds me so much of myself (!) and last but by no means least, Annie who not only does great work but is always ready to help.

Thanks Jo! You're too sweet. You've made my day with this award. I love that we have become friends! It's been great chatting and sharing ideas through the blogs. I look forward to it everyday!

Sounds like a nice Mother's day. Happy Mother's Day to you! I bet those cards from the boys will be a treasured gift. Lucky too that you already have daffodils in the garden, definitely no fresh flowers here! :) Hope you had a wonderful day. Hugs! :)

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.

Happy Blogoversary To Me!!

THIS IS NOW CLOSED........WINNER WILL BE ANNOUNCED LATER TODAY! ***** THIS POSTING WILL REMAIN AT THE TOP UNTIL 09 DECEMBER.

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.
