How Spooky is this?

I sat this evening while my Hubby was at snooker mounting this image.
Hamish a little cutie.
I went onto cardmaking amd papercraft forum,
only to find that a very good friend of mine had done the same image.
To see them both please look at the following link
We had no contact about this until they were both made!
Spooky

I promised myself....

I promised myself that I would do new things this year,
or even master a new technique.
Well I am proud of myself for making these first four cards,
also for completing the other stamped images.
Even though they are yet to be mounted!
These first images are Magnolia Tilda stamps.
I think they are a cute addition to my crafting stash!


The image below has been completed but is still waiting to be mounted!The last few images are called sugar nellies.
All of them have been painted with marvy pens watered down.
I have tried for a long time to reach this level of work!
A cute knight!
Little boys as well as girls!

A cute little sitting girl.

Winter warmer! How we shall all look should the snow come!

My final completed image for now. Love the boots!

End of the Year!

Its the end of 2007.... I do hope 2008 is a better one!
This year has been a tough one for me.
February I had surgery on my left hand, it cured the problem.
April the hell began with my back, sciatica!!!!
I was unable to walk, sit, lie down or sleep!
I suffered for 8 weeks, until I paid for a private scan.
June 2nd I had surgery on my spine removing a disc.
It took 11 weeks for my scar to heal though the sciatic pain had stopped.
I will always have a bad back! but I am sure its got to be better, than it used to be!
2008 has to be a better year!

Just been asked!

I have just been asked to make up another beading order. My first since Christmas time!!!
Another reason to get my crafting on the go again! I am thrilled to know that past customers wish to come back to me. I know I have a couple of bracelets to make, though I am waiting for confirmation.
I will show you all my makes when I am in the flow! I have made a card!!!

A Strange few days

Its been a strange few days, always is just after Christmas. I have the urge to make something crafty, but don't know what.... Its probably because my craft goodies are all put away, that I am unable to be inspired to do anything. I know its going to take me a while to get everything out that I want to work with. Maybe that's the reason I am not into my crafting just yet! I will work on getting some bits out to play with and then I hope to be inspired.
Its time for me to claim my crafty space again and begin being productive.

Lovely Christmas day.

We have had a super Christmas Day.
The children have loved it and loved all the presents.
They both have a drawing desk, so it means I don't have to share the big table now!
I will be able to have all my crafting goodies out again in the next couple of days.
I am looking forward to making some new items.
Playing with my new things.
I wish you all a very MERRY CHRISTMAS.
