long time no hear

Who is this stranger posting you ask yourself, its me had a hectic summer blogging was giving the go by! .  However its now september giving myself a stern talking to and now
going to start blogging again.

Have made a card for freshly made challenge, i found it knocked at least 30 minutes off

making a card if i started with a sketch.  see what you think.  i will only make one comment
when i saw how skewiff the shoes sentiment was it did get straightened, the card was made
for someone who feels the same way i do about shoes (one of lifes little essentials!!)

back to cards

After the excitement of take that, had to come back down to earth, back to work today so i've spent
some time this morning making a card.  Pam wanted a card for her daughter in law who loves dogs
don't we all!  luckily i had some Hunky Dory toppers which i put with my stamping up paper to make this card .  obviously need to practise with the camera to get pictures at the right angle

see you later

friday night in manchester

No craft today i will post tomorrow for that, i thought i would let you know how i spent friday night

I went to the City of Manchester stadium to see Take That, we went to see them two years ago and i didn't think they could improve the show.  How wrong can one person be, spectacular is the only word for it plus the wonderful Mr Williams back with them.   the first picture is of the 60 ft robot that is part of the show also picture of mr barlow.  Can't recommend the show enough forgot all the worries i've had the last couple of weeks and just sang along and danced all night.  My only complaint would be it was not long enough, anyway back tomorrow with more crafting

work in progress

 I have now had this card on my desk for a week, one of my friends  is expecting a new grandaughter in June and wants a new baby card.  My lovely friend Monica loaned me a stamp set so i could have a
play,  what a lovely time i have had with this, made another baby card and also a new home card.  Of

course the original card still needs finishing,  but the rest will be done when baby arrives!

Fathers day

my first post, spent a little time this morning trying to get in front with my cards, started with fathers day

card for my dad. Made completely with stamping up products.  No stamping however!!
found design in old card mag, don't think it looks too bad.
