Cute Angel

Morning all,

It's midway reminder time over at Nutcrafters., week 2 of Gemma's 'recipe theme', 

1 image, 2 papers & 3 different embellishments

so still plenty of time to join in with us.Why not pop over and see what the rest of the teamies have created.

I've used some papers from my stash, flowers, webbing tied in a bow and a wooden snowflake embellishment.The digi stamp is Nutcrafters 'Music in the air' -released at the end of last year.


Challenges:

What are you all up to today? We've been clearing out our loft ready for moving - when we eventually get a moving date, so it's a visit to the tip today-rock and roll I know. Then we are picking up more boxes from my brother in law. It doesn't quite fit after having my hair and nails done yesterday.
We are going away for a night in a hotel in Hull - a pressie from my Dad and his partner.We are going to use it to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary which was on the 6th November while I was up in Scotland. See you all soon.

Pink & blue

Hi all,

That's me back home after 2 and a half weeks up in Scotland with my Mum and family. I'd just like to offer my sincere thanks to everyone that sent me their kind thoughts and support while I was going through the loss of my lovely Auntie Pat. The design teams I am on have been amazing so THANK YOU SO MUCH - it meant such alot to me. I haven't known whether I was coming or going. It might take me some time to get back into the swing of things but here's hoping.

It's time for a new challenge over at Ruby's Rainbow and it's the lovely Valou's turn to choose the theme which is:

'Pink & blue'
I hadn't a card prepared with being away but found this one that I'd sent to my niece in September.
I used papers & an image from a Forever friends cdrom, embossing folder, ribbon, twine and buttons
We'd love you to join in so pop on over and see what the rest of the teamies have made.
Thanks for popping by.Have a great day.

More Autumn fun

Hi to all my lovely blogger friends,

It's the midway challenge point over at Nutcrafters and it's time for some Autumn fun. So get all those yummy Autumn images out, or use one of our freebies.We love you to use Katie's fab images.Plus there's prizes as always. here's my card:
 
I used a leaf embossing folder and inked it up, I coloured this cutie image Nutcrafters Autumn breeze and coloured her with pencils with me still being away at my Mum's in Scotland so only have a few bits with me.
If you don't see me about like you normally do please accept my apologies.My Great Auntie Pat passed away on Saturday night and I've been helping my Mum with all the arrangements. I can't believe how much there is to do.The funeral is on Thursday, then we bury her ashes on Monday.Luckily I had this card made last week. She was an amazing woman and so loving.It's a blessing really as she was in a lot of pain with the Cancer.Thinking of everyone and sending you my hugs.

On a brighter note, get crafting as we'd love to see your creations.
