2011-07-11T04:58:00.000-07:00

for those that have been following the Kitchen saga its been one thing after another and we are now going to be finally finished probably the second week in August!!!! having Sacked the firm that were doing it, well its made me ill what did they expect I actually started to make some cards so by the time the Kitchen is finished I can actually start on my Christmas Cards as they have to be made and finished early this year lol as some of you know Christmas this year is going to be different for us. well I must carry on making will put some cards up later.

Where Have my followers gone

2011-07-09T04:41:00.000-07:00

I came onto my blog for the first time in ages and my followers have left me where have they gone I wonder perhaps is the blog invader still at this time we are busy in the house and garden cleared out half the shed but what do I do with some empty Jars that are "Teddy Bear Shaped no joke they were Jam Jars by a very well known company and I am not throwing them away so will think on that one take care xx

I have not posted in some time

2011-06-28T08:48:00.000-07:00

I am a bit naughty as I have not posted in some time crafting for me has been put on hold for a little bit I still go to craft fair's but at the moment my crafting stuff has been put away until I have got all the builders out the house, we started to have a Kitchen done back in February and we thought we were finally finished 8 weeks Later!!!!!

No such luck it has been one scary thing after another and at the moment we are waiting to have the floor taken up which was brand new and then relaid again. In the meantime my lovely hubby is being a Knight in shinning Armour and takes me out most weekends, the last weekend just gone we were in Kent at a certain shop and then went on to Eastbourne staying overnight in a hotel.

As soon as I can I will start to make cards again as long I have not lost my mojo which at the moment is flat and vanished into the depths of the Kitchen.

Its been a while

2010-02-15T14:32:00.000-08:00

well I am unsure where last year went and the start of 2010 is lost but we are determined that from the start of April we are going to start to enjoy ourselves and catch up with people as I write this I have just started to do some slicing and actually start to make some cards again.

Its been a long time plus I have been using the promarkers that I bought last year, but towards the end of last I started to design again so hopefully I will start to make some cards having spent some money on some stamps so watch this space.

Where has the time gone and HOW DO I USE

2009-07-09T06:57:00.000-07:00

Well I really do not know where the year so far has gone not a lot of crafting done been busy with family problems still sorting them out at the moment I am chasing my tail as my Hubby puts it. a few shows we have managed to attend one just last week about the 4th July went to Newbury Racecourse. Now what I want to know is how do I use Promakers Pen and No one laugh I have never used them at all so a new adventure for me.

I am at the moment designing invites and have got stuck on the wording so I am trying to work out if its "Request the pleasure of" or is it "Request the pleasure of your company" not sure yet.

Plus I have to put away everything that I bought at the last Craft Show and I must at sometime really clear out my Craft Room perhaps one day next year it really does need doing may have to have some help with that one. It will be fun I know that. right back to drinking my cuppa and check out a new Crafting CD that I have got.

Now do I go to Ally Pally in September!!!!!! or is it November , No its September better start the saving jar Know all I need is someone to remind me Not To Buy Any Card. take care jan

The card I made the image comes from a CD called ART DECO lovely CD but I must start stamping again when I get the time!!!

Well I Found Something Never Used

2009-02-28T07:21:00.000-08:00

Well I have just been looking around my craft supplies and come across I think its plastic which you heat and comb whilst hot never used so have sent my hubby off to get me a baking sheet and then on Sunday I think it will be a hit and miss trial for me as I have never used this before will let you know how it goes. jan

Well this is my first time at Blogging I am sure some one will be kind and let me know if something needs to be changed, I lost my Mum 2 years ago and did a Scrapbook for a very good friendof my Mum and decided that I would do one for myself which I am showing here its taken all this time because how do you decide which photo's to use. All are special and believe me there has been laughter and tears in this house whilst doing it.

Mum knew I was into card making before she died and knew that I was in contact with many friends as a result I am happy to say she even joined in making cards with me, if she could see now how one of our bedrooms has become a craft room and how many of us meet up at craft shows she would laugh. I am married to Keith who is a lovely man and has been known to cook a meal or two. jan
