Someone to make my tea..!

After a bit of sleep some pain killers I'm feeling a little better, although it's a good job I'm typing and not talking as my sore throat would not last long ( what do you mean you're glad i'm not talking... cheeky!). I thought I would finish a card to show you...

the papers are Lemonade by Basic Grey and am just about at the end of them. I may have enough to make some small cards.. The image was sent in an RAK and is one of a few I'm reluctant to use as when they have gone they are gone..Lol.. what are we like with these H&S images we treat them as if they were worth millions.... ;o) They probably are...to anyone not living in Sweden.. I have used my Sekura glitter pens on them as you can see, although the photo looks more glittery than it really is..

The nice big flowers and the charm are from The Hobby House.. The ribbon is from my mega stash from Craft Zone the button i'm not 100% sure where they were from..

Well I'm making some soup for my tea as everything I have eaten this week I have not tasted much so just want soup although it will be from a tin I do love to make my own vegetable soup all through the winter months.. I best show you the card and leave you in peace... Leave me lots and lots of love...

Always make Time for Tea..!

There IS always time in the day for a nice cup of tea.. In a nice china cup...Lol.. just ask my hubby (although he prefers a mug)..

It's short and sweet today as i'm taking an elderly lady to the doctors in the next 20 minutes.

The papers are again by Brenda Pinnick. The buttons are from my lovely new friend on the market on the east coast of the UK. The ribbon is from Craft Zone in Pontefract where I bought about £40 in one day...Lol hope him indoors never reads this...!

The flowers are from The Hobby House... Leave me some mega love.. I may have a small RAK candy again sooooon. I will see if I have enough stash...Forgot to say I coloured in with my Sakura gel pens..

Have a look here for this mega Candy although it ends 30th OCT at 9pm. Twinklesglow has some wonderful things on there too. Go take a peek... There are pics but i'm going to work...

Love these Flowers...

Hi there I just had to have a go at these wonderful flowers that I saw on Tabby Craft Designs blog, She's down there amongst the blogs I follow.. Yeah down there in my side bar..! There is also a link to see some others too.. I will have to go through my tub and re do all the flowers in there now. Thanks Tabby for sharing this with us..

I adore this stamp and could use it all the time but thought you would all get bored and never come and say Hello again..Lol.. So I have to use others too....

The papers again are MME I think... from a stack I bought last year but just love it.. I only ever buy Basic Grey or MME at the best of times so it must be.... You know my memory is rubbish.. Now what was I going to say..... Oh yes I have posted loads of RAKs , birthday cards and friendship pages today the poor postman will get a shock when he collects because it was a tiny village PO that I used and they are not used to so much stuff in one day...

The ribbon is the stuff with wire along each edge and I have had it for a year and only just getting around to using it.. I keep saying I am not going to buy anything else for a while but I'm just too weak and keep giving in..Lol how many times have you said and done the same thing???

Leave some love and tell me the tale and share your excuses...If you dare tell all..

I may not be back tomorrow as I'm going away for a long weekend so if i'm not I will see you all on Monday ish....

Anniversary

Well i'm here a little earlier than normal (I have a spare half hour before working for a couple of hours)... So where would I be.. Lol.. talking to my friends...

I've stayed on the marriage theme and made an anniversary card with an image sent to me in an RAK.... Don't you just love them. I'm still looking for someone with a tent in sweden that lets strange women rent it for a weekend ( although a weekend in sweden would not be long enough).

The cards I have made this weekend have all had my own flowers added as I have spent a fortune in the past on shop bought and have also spent ages making a big tub of flowers made with my bits of scrap paper.... i'm useless as remembering whos papers they are.. My minds eye are the ones that I buy in 12x12 stacks so thats who I think they are by and I do love their stacks..... I need more...!

I may be back later today with something else or i may leave it until my normal tea time spot tomorrow....... Leave me some love pleeeeease..!

Wedding day Blues..!

I've left it to the last minute to make a wedding card for tomorrow, until one of my girls (Staff) asked if I could make her a card too for the wedding we are both going to tomorrow. I'm never too sure about my wedding cards as it is but have managed to make them...... The Blue one from me is made with My Minds Eye papers that came in a stack...the image is from a stamp I bought at Harrogate show a couple of years ago and the lady I got them from has some beautiful Fairy stamps Lativia stamps I think they are or something like that I will find out and let you know properly if anyone wants to know and find a link to her other stamps..

The pink cards is also from the same paper stack. The image was given to me by a friend.. I know some people do not like the idea of us swapping images but by doing this I have bought stamps that I was not sure of in the past...Would you believe that this is how I have become a Magnolia fan...!

It's like they say "Try before you buy".

Well the girls called earler for their wages and we do get given some very strange things in our day to day work...Lol.. and they turned up with 4 very big trays of Danish pastries and mince pies that had been bought from Costco and what the client did not want was passed on to us.... Now my old self would have eaten quite a few...but the girls took what they wanted and I had a nice cup of tea and half a custard danish then jumped into my car and took the rest to my old work team (hubby still works there)... they loved them.. It pays to keep them sweet as i'm running out of mountboard so need to get some and the boys will cut it to size on the guilotine...

Well it is time to start tea.. Hope to be back tomorrow. call agin and leave me some much needed love....

Busy, Busy, Busy!

Well here I am again busy doing nothing... Well I'm dressing my 8x8 cards as i do with all my cards first.. The papers are by Basic grey from their Lemonade selection, and as you can see i have been sewing seed beads on them too and ribbon has gone on there too...

I just love the zesty lime green colour. I never know how the cards will end up, I just enjoy the dressing of the card first and then see where that takes me... I'm away to the doctor soon to sort my creaky neck out.. It has been hurting me for long enough now and it is getting very hard to turn my head and look at my "Blind" spot when driving as I am now having to turn my body rather than my head.... My son says he is taking me to the vets if I dont see the doctor..Lol... He is so very sweet and knows just how to phrase things....

I will eventualy show you one ofr two of these cards finished but it could be over the wekend as we will be playing catch up with work tomorrow and I'm at a wedding saturday evening... Let's just wait and see if I can get some finished....Come back and see....

Enjoy your weekend as it is here again...
