Happy Friday.

 

Good morning I hope you are all well and that at last we have a nice day here in the UK.

I made this for a dear friend, it was a long time in getting to her but I know she understands my lack of speed...good job I don't make them for a living anyway...

I have had this image so long and no idea where or who it came from, sorry about that.

 I deckle edged the image, the background is a gel plate creation from a while back which is layered up,  and the little tag was punched out on a woodware punch.

Thats about it, I know she loved her card because she told me quick as a flash :))

Now these I made up quick on the machine for Mia, just things she said she could use, the black one I stencilled using soft touch fabric paint, which is amazing stuff BTW. so another happy chappie...haha.

 

Have a lovely weekend.

Back again...

 

Best be careful you don't get sick of me.

Been seeing this type of card design alot on pinterest and then I think Beccy did a couple on FB. Me not having any big floral images decided to google and managed to get one to try out.

 

Printed the image large enough to cut up for the cards, coloured with Copic markers, ran some card through a swiss dot folder, cut the image in half and fussy cut. The christmas word die is branded just don't ask, sorry. Question, do they need a touch of glitter or anything, sorry once again about the quality of the pics. the lighting is just awful here right now.

I might add I have now bought a nice clear stamp set to try out more of these, yes I am that taken with them.:))

Added glitter....better hands down :))

Thanks for your lovely comments on wednesdays post, really appreciate you all, if we find anything I will let you all know.xxxx

 

 

 

Broken clock.

 

Found an old-ish clock in a cupboard, why oh why would I keep it !!!!!! anyways, took it to pieces , got youngest son to cut me a circular piece of board to act as the base, slotted it into the frame, covered with some nice DP a quick coat of modge podge and the glass face slotted in, Mia loves her new tray, haha

 

So got rid of yet more rubbish and made my sweet girl smile, I didn't get time to put any handles on, if anyone remembers the woodern one I made from an old picture frame it was so much more than this but still, nice change I think and it passed an hour on :))

On a different note, I don't always talk about personal stuff thats going on because we all have troubles, but recently I was in a mess, my wonderful daughter Carla, was suddenly rushed to hospital and was very poorly, she had developed sepsis, my heavens I have been a wreck, trying to carry on but terrified. Well she is on the mend, very much a lucky girl right now and I thank God so much but they still haven't got to the bottom of why it happened, she has had problems for two years now but with Covid, well lets just say things are on the slide, lots of investigating going on, please keep her in your thoughts won't you, she is a wonderful girl and works so hard with her children up at her School, I am only telling this incase I go missing again. Thankyou for letting me vent abit, sometimes it helps me cope better.
