I am still here..........

Good Morning.
I am going to get some craft bits out today and see what one can come up with.
I have been off work for a week with a bad back. Bored is a understatement.
A work mate rang yesterday to see how i was. I told her i am so bored as I cant do alot.

She kindly remined me that I have lots of craft stuff sitting here gathering dust, and you know I had forgotten all about it.

So later on today I am going to have a play..................... with what no idea...........but watch this space.

hope everyone is well. Happy crafting all .

good morning

Well hello, from a stranger.
Thought I would pop in and say hi, sorry no cards. mojo is still AWOL.
Took me a little while to get into my account as I had forgotten my password. Actually I had changed it and forgot I had.
Anyway life is slowly getting better.
Got myself a job and loving it.
Christmas is fast approaching and me not organised as normal. Its going to be very different for us this year. But you know what we will enjoy it.
I am starting to get itchy fingers now.Thinking more about my crafting, just not produced anything.
So maybe in the new year I will have something to show you.
Hope everyone is well and ready for Christmas.
Big hugs to you all and hope you all have a wonderful Christmas .

Good Morning

I just felt I needed to pop here and let you all know I am still alive.
Sorry I have not been posting over the last few months.
Some people know why. I will just say that my Life has been turned upside down and my crafting has all been put away for now, hopefully I will find the interest in it again one day.
But at this time I have no interest what so ever.
I have tried going to see crafty friends, I have purchased mags etc etc in the hope that it helps my mojo return.
But instead I have a barrier come up and it stops me.

I do pop and look at peeps blogs now and then.
I am plodding along taking each day as it comes as that's the best way for me at this time.
big hugs to all my crafting friends and blog followers.
I will return just don't know when.

I done it!

Woopppiieee I done it. I managed to post a card everyday this week.

I would like to think I could keep it up, But with working from home and normal day to day activities I just never know.

Tonight we are out with our son and his girlfriend and the in laws for a nice steak.

The biggest steak this place serves is 32oz if you can eat it with all the trimmings you get it free.

No I wont be having one of them. I love steak but no way could I eat one that big.

I plan to having a crafting day tomorrow , so hopefully I can get ahead with a few cards for next week.

Today's card I am not that happy with. I may have to have a play with it and add something.

Ingredients

Tilda and bench coloured with copics

Bazzil card

Buttons and peel off from stash ( buttons look black here, but they are a dark brown)

Entering this into
