Fed Up..!

Well I'm still house bound as we have black ice all around us again and just now it has started to snow again...!

I've been finishing a few cards and am making yet another winter warming stew... I dream of salad with nice ripe vine tomatoes....and some fruit and Ice-cream...Lol...

I hope you can see that i'm using all the goodies up from the wonderful RAKs you have all been sending... It's nice to use something different..

I will be back tomorrow as looks bad here for the rest of the week.. My girls went out to do a couple of jobs and ended up coming home (I was so glad as I did not want them to go in the first place, they are only young and getting to realise I'm right in what i'm saying to them) as they were skidding. One of the other team fell on her bum so was not pleased, she did not hurt herself only her pride...!

Take care out there...!

Wii Fit! Fit to drop.....!

Well I have done it.. I bought a Wii and "Your Shape" was with it along with Resort sport....

Resport sport i'm loving... I have just tried YS... I'm now fit to drop..I've never had so much fun.. It looks like my card making will not come to an end but I will slow down.. I was making far too many and not selling unless I could find a Fayre to sell at.

I managed to work out at 13% out of 14% worked off 75 cals and will be back for more on wednesday. If you had seen me yesterday suffering from how much I did on saturday you would know why I'm having a day off. If i do every other day for a month and work my way up I will be happy. Want to know how i'm doing on a daily basis and have a laugh look on facebook...!

I best put a card picture on here too.. The Magnolia image I love and thanks to a friend I have this mini version too. The Mo Manning image is another I love and had to have the stamp.. The card however needs something else to finish it off, maybe a nice wide ribbon..

Leave some love...

And here's some more...

Well the snow is still falling (blowing a blizzard just now) and my hubby is on his way home...!

His tea is not burn for a change...Lol..

A couple of cards to show you and a few snowy ones...

Unless this snow goes away I will be home crafting but best not spend until i'm back earning some money.. I'm missing all the sales too..;o( not just for craft.. I wanted new pllows for the chalet etc..

Please take a minute out of your day to think of all the homeless people out there...!

I've had one of my staffs young lads round today as he wanted to make a birthday card for my nephew who is 12 tomorrow and his best friend. He can't get into the town so came to see me for an hour to play with all my stash. He knew I made cards as his "Nanna" does too and he loves to make some with her. He did not realise just how much stuff I had... and enjoyed himself immensely..

I also enjoyed his company. His mum should be proud of such a young polite son she has..

Hubby has just arrived home now so I best put tea out. I hope to be back again tomorrow..

Getting Ahead....!

Well it's nearly a month since I was last here...Where has the time gone as it feels as though it was only yesterday....

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas... We did although they are getting quieter every year, as the boys have grown up and flown the nest and both have families of their own..

I have only worked 1 day in the last 3 weeks due to the weather and a bit of a chest infection.. So what should a girl do with all that time on her hands.... Craft craft and more craft..

Here are a couple of card that are ready for christmas 2010 and a photo taken Christmas 2009 of my sons little helper... I can't wait until she is my little craft buddy..Lol...

I hope some of you will recognise papers, images and embellishment you have sent in RAKs. I will carry on with christmas cards until I have used all the old dps I have from over the last few years that I have stashed. This weekend i hope to show a little box that I have finished of cards that I will be giving out as Birthday and Christmas presents. I will also be making lots of Christmas tags too for friends and family..

Have fun in whatever you are making and I will be back soon.

Well its 2 weeks till christmas and the cards are all done and posted.I have about a dozen ready for next year and am still making them. If I carry on until the end of this year I may have at least half of what I will need next year...! Hows that for been organised..

I'm making Birthday Books as christmas presents too so that I just need to nip out and buy some nice pens to go with them alng with a few home made cards too..Lol..!

I have been using up my scraps of dp on the front/back covers..

There are plain pages after the picture and calendar month so that in november they can mark off number 30 and on the blank page add 30 = Lynn etc..

Hope you like them...

There is a photo of my 2 year old granddaughter too that came up from south wales to see the new baby... This is the same granddaughter on my PCP photo too!

Just messing.....!

Here are a few cards that I have been messing about with...!

The christmas /birthday card with the H&S image on is a card I get asked for by one of my clients every year. It is for his niece in Australia who's birthday is on christmas day so he asks for me to do a nice card...

I have already done a bit of baby sitting ;o)....

My son and Vicky asked if they could leave Emily with me whilst they went home for some bits n bobs they needed... They can't wait for the boiler to be fixed tomorrow so they can show Emily her nursery that they worked so hard to get done.. It's the first time my son had wall pappered and they picked a Nursery Rhyme Mural type thing that was made up of so many squares... I was glad it was him and not me doing it. He has done quite a good job too.......

Hope you like the cards... I hope to be back in the next couple of days with more..although I have bought 2 jars to decorate up for christmas ;o(

Wow....Did I tell you my son and girlfriend was due to have a baby??? Lol...

Well here she is less than 24 hours old..Emily..

Have you seen all that hair...

Isn't she beautiful...Lol.. I'm not sure who she looks like just now as at first she looked like vicky (her mum) then I have seen my son in her and his dads side of the family..

They have gone to stay with Vickys mum for a few days as their boiler broke yesterday.

Well that it for today i'm now going to have a glass of wine with my hubby.....1
