What I was woke up to this morning

Mind feel sorry for my neighbours. My Grandson rang and woke me up to say there was a fire engine out side our house, when I looked out to the window, my neighbours roof off her upstairs bay is hanging off. The firemen could not get it off, now there is some sort of crane there trying to remove it.All the street is cordoned off. Hope they can remove it without too much damage

Things I have made

I am showing you my first attempt at Polymer clay, I made these quite a few years ago and forgot I had used Polymer for the heads and hands. Sorry the photo's are rubbish but you can get the gist of them


Neet told me to upload these as I most likely would not of bothered, must admit I did enjoy making them at the time

ATC's and card

 Above are 3 ATC's I made for a swap, you don't have to stamp on this group but I still find myself stamping most of the time, there is one not stamped though
This is a birthday card I made for a friend, love these stamps from Kristy, I brake for stamps sells them now.
They are photo stamps but I always get a great impression with these, some I really struggle with. I still prefer Brilliance to stamp with though. Anyhow hope you like them

My week at Neet's

Well I was really chuffed as when I went to Neet's she was doing a polymer clay workshop so I could go. The blue necklace is the one I made with her at the workshop, which must admit I was really pleased with being my first go at something like this. The pink and cream one I made the beads while I was at Neets, then made into a necklace when I got home, was great to learn something new

The above card I made when I went too the Padgate Christmas workshop, must admit I only made 2, or and a African Christmas card (he he) as Lorraine bless her bought me the stamp as she said it is very me, when I make another one I will upload. Did not get a lot done as I was too busy nattering to great friends that I only see about twice a year, so it was a great day. Jayne bless her organised it and made soup for everyone, which was really tasty. Must ask her for the recipe. Thanks Jayne for a great day and thanks to all my friends that made it really special and too Neet for putting up with me

Darlenes birthday card

Above is the card I made Darlene for her birthday, Happy Birthday Pet. Can put it on my blog now as it is her birthday today. I had a go at image transfer and it did not work so I put glitter on the image instead and it looks quite good in real life, as you know they never look the same when photographed or scanned, she loves feathers so had too use some of those and a couple of roses I made. I hope she likes it.
Below is a ATC I sent her, the dragon is a I break for stamps one and I love it, think it is my most favourite out of all the dragons I have

Couple of quick cards

 Love this tree stamp from Elusive images and had a few shimmery backgrounds done so thought I would make a couple of cards to have at the ready as they say. The one below I have used some of my leaves background as you can see, don't think they turned out too bad,
I really must start and use all these lovely papers I have, I don't think I will ever get through them all. Terrible when you are a card maker isn't it. I have a right fetish for paper and card, just can't resist it. Keep saying won't buy any more then see something else I like,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Well my scanner has decide not to work, which is a real nuisance and then my camera decide it would not let me take the pictures off on the PC, glad my Son came in, he showed me another way of doing it. Enough rambling, better sign off
