Tic Tac Toe

Hi all I haven't had time to blog for ages, I still don't, but I have just remembered I should have put my DT effort for The Cupboard Trilogy on today. I need a minder lol.
This month is called Tic Tac Toe, because the challenge is to pick a line either anyway as long as it is straight. and the descriptions on that line is what you use to do your card or in my case a Scrapbook page. The line I chose was Bright colours Flowers and Ribbon. I hope you like my effort and that you have a go at the challenge.
This is a photo of my Daughter and Son 7 & 4 at Christmas 1978

Super Hero's

Hi my friends, I haven't been on here for a while, bit tied up with hospital visits etc. I am also struggling to get myself motivated at the moment. Mojo has gone walk about again.

This is the card you all helped with suggestions for. I went with Power Rangers in the end. I hope he likes it.


 I have also made a couple of New Home cards. For my daughter Sarah's best friend Sarah.

 This one is and A5 with my favorite lace. I hope you don't think it is a bit to pink..

   This is an A6 Not the size I usually do.
They are JS Patience Strong images yet again.

Sisters in the Park

Hi all I hope you nip over to TCT challenge. It is a nice one this month. It's all about embossing, be it dry with a folder, or with embossing powders and stamps. Or as in my case, a digitally embossed piece of work  This is the first time I have done this, and I admit it was quite tricky. I hope someone has a go at it as well, and enters the challenge.

This is a photo of my sister and me in the local park a few years ago lol I am the elder one, far more ladylike than my younger sibling. We are  sitting in the Coronation gardens.
Please feel free to leave me a comment. xx

Wedded Bliss

42 years ago tomorrow,  we said I do. For better or worse,  richer or poorer, in sickness and in health. It has been a bumpy road some of the way. But I am glad we stuck it out. We have two fantastic kids. a wonderful Son in law, and a beautiful new Daughter in law. What more could we want. Never been rich, but we have never been poor. Just have to battle with ill health. But we will get there.
Here is the card I made for my husband, for the occasion. I hope you like it. I know he will, no matter what it looks like. He will put it in a box, with all the other cards I have made for him.

Little bundle of Joy

This is the first time I have blogged in simply ages. I just haven't had the energy or the inclination.
These are just a couple of new baby cards for the stock box. Same but different. Once again i have used JS images. These are from the Victorian Compendium cd. The base card is white linen, topped with pale green/pale lemon pearlised card. Backing papers are from the cd as well. I think the babies on these are so lovely, they look so cosy you just want to pick them up and cuddle them Ahhhh  
Daft old sod I know lol



                     I hope you like these cards, please leave me a comment. xxx

This page is in remembrance of my gorgeous dog Sandy. We were lucky to have him from 8 weeks to 14 years. We lost him 12 years ago and I still miss him. He wasn't a bit of use, just another mouth to feed. but he was a gorgeous gentle soul.
The backing paper, material, frame and embellishments are from various Digikits. Especially the very latest Petal Fresh from the Nitwits collection. The frame and material and scroll came from this one.
I hope you enjoy what I have made. Thanks for looking
