It's been a while again

Since I last visited.  Still having neck problems so trying to stay off the pc.  I have been making a card a day this week in between life and the terror terrier.  He's worse than a toddler wanting attention 100% of the time.  But enough of my moans and up with my cards atc's and fat pages.  Hope you all are keeping well and still finding time to craft in the run up to Christmas.  Have you got all your Christmas cards made yet?

Hello there, long time no see!

Hello All, I didn't realise it had been so long since I last updated my blog.  My neck pain has prohibited me from spending much time sitting at the pc.   So once I have visited the galleries over on DC and have a wee visit to Joanna Sheen  it's time to switch off and have some more pain killers and a cuppa.   I hope all of you are well and having lots of crafty time.

Hi Folks, Friday night seems to come around so quickly.   I've only made one card again this week.   A birthday card for my eldest granddaughter who was 19 on Wednesday.  Ohhh! that makes me feel so old.
I used my Tied together embossing folder on my card and then changed my mind and used the fan background card instead.  Oriental lady stamped and coloured with promarkers.  Black satin ribbon and pink velvet ribbon from my stash Flourish is from Cheery Lyn, flowers and card candi from stash.
I hope you all have a lovely weekend whatever you are doing.
Thanks for popping by.

ODBD stamps Majestic squares and rossette dies
  Good evening  Crafters,  I hope you are all well and have had a good week.   I've only made one card this week and just had to use my newest favourite stamp, the fishing boat from ODBD, and since I had bought the fishing net background stamp, also from ODBD it gave me a good excuse to use it again.   This time it is going to be a birthday card for my brother or uncle, I've not decided yet.   I do hope to get crafty over the weekend so might be back to add more

Stamp from ODBD sea stamps, lace and pearls from stash
sentiment computer generated, die-cuts from a box I cut out a while
 ago so not quite sure which ones they are.
Hiya folks from a wet amd miserable Central Belt.  I thought I'd get a head start for a change  and be ready for the DC bloghop.  I hope you have all had some time to spend getting crafty.   
I had to make sympathy cards this week as a young member of our church died on Sunday, she was just 22.  Very sad.  The funeral and thanks giving service is tomorrow.  Rachel has planned the funeral and service has chosen 16 songs to sing and I'm sure there will be lots of laughs amongst the sadness.  But with such a long service then off to the cremetorium and back to the church for a buffet tea I doubt I will get online tomorrow.  So I shall wish you all a happy weekend.   Thanks for popping by and commenting on my cards.

Another busy day

But at least I got some crafting done, though not untill I had spent a couple of hours in the sun reading my craft magazines.  Hope it was nice where you are.   So today I made 2 atc's and a fat page.  I was quite enjoying playing with just the same few stamps.  Thanks for hopping by.

A birthday card for my Brother in Law who was sent to the gym for 12 weeks on the NHS.  He's 63 over weight and has a dicky heart so the thought of him ending up looking like this made me smile.
Thanks for taking the time to check out my blogg and leave comments.   I really appreciate you all. Hope you have a crafty weekend.
