two in one day

well dont drop dead with shock 2 posts in one day, its still raining and i've managed to make another
card, the weather isn't doing much for my creativity, and i know i should be doing housework.
But my friend pam who has been my best customer for the last couple of years wanted a card
for her friend, and having a lack of inspiration i ended up looking through my stampin up catalogue so shamelessly copied here is what i came up with.   It took a lot of the hard work out of the process and i did change it slightly. 
I feel i may as well confess that on saturday evening i relived my youth and went to see the Osmonds at a local theatre, i never managed to see them in their heyday and this is the last tour they are doing so it seemed a good idea and despite the fact that donny wasn't on with them, they were fantastic had a sore throat when i came out from all the singing, isn't it funny how all the words come back to you after about 40 years
Right housework calls

easter washout

what an awful bank holiday weekend we have had, never stopped raining i have been moving my
craft room so i havn't got a great deal of crafting done so i thought i would show you the mothers day card i made for my mum i got the idea from  cards and a cuppa who did it as as a boxed frame just thought the idea was brilliant for a card, luckily mum liked the card this style of card is great if you're
making a large card for a special occassion i've also made something similair for an 21st birthday.
Be back again with some newer work

Scrapbooking

this will come as a shock another post so soon, obviously had a rush of blood to the head.
Last night went to the scrapbooking class i go to every month, run by my good friend
Monica.  Its  her birthday today and it goes without saying i made her a card, the problem
is monica is the person who got me started with crafting 4 years ago and she has been crafting for more years than i care to think about so obviously no pressure to make her a card then!!!
Here is what i came up with, the basic idea i saw on a blog but im not sure where, anyway hopefully monica liked it and is having a special day

see you next time
