Where does time go!


I can't believe how the time has passed since I posted last, I will hopefully get better at blogging than I am at present!  
     I hope when I get this weekend out of the way and my visit to the Endoscopy dept. on Saturday things might look up! I will just say I can think of a million better things to do with my weekends!!!  Please pray for good results for me! xx
   Well this is a card I made from my favourite Honey Doo stamps, I made it a few weeks ago but couldn't show it as it was for a birthday.  I stamped and embossed in WOW Platinum powder and coloured with promarkers, I also used the Honey Doo matching Die set to cut it out.  




 Thank you for calling by and leaving lovely comments, its wonderful to see you all again and I do promise to get around to your blogs as fast as I can. Thank you Janette Deans for  calling and staying as a follower, its wonderful to have you on board xx

Pearls and Peonies...


Hi Everyone,
Hope its better weather where you are, its a horrid wet damp day here for sure!
I am going to have a sugarcraft session shortly but thought I would pop on with a card I made a couple of days ago. I ordered a stamp from my favourite Honey Doo stamps and the second it dropped in my letter box I had to play with it! 
Sadly I think my camera is ailing as its taking rubbish pictures lately. Nothing is coming out  the correct colours!!? my creamy white pearls are grey ...yuk!  I think I may be need to invest in a new one.
Well now to do some sugarcrafting, haven't done any at all for past three years so need to polish up on old skills. When I retired from making Wedding Cakes I swore I wouldn't be doing any more! but they keep popping up again. Thankfully this is a little project.
catch you all again soon xxx

Hopefully I am back to stay!

Well I thought I was back last time to stay! but as hubby hadn't got off to a good start this year! it was build up time for him. We have had a few months getting him back on track and  looking and feeling healthier.   
I have still been crafting in between a few days out!
and the fortnight in the Lakes of course was just what the doc ordered.
This is one of the cards I  have made,The flowers are "Flower Shower" from http://www.honeydoocrafts.co.uk/, I stamped onto Velum and coloured them with Markers, The Die is a Sue Wilson "Eternal Rings.
 I was quite pleased with how the card turned out again!  I seem to have found what style I like now.  
Sorry Photo is a bit rubbish but I didn't have my light box to hand, the sun was blazing and camera setting all to pot!!! I just couldn't get to grips with it somehow!!!   lol 
Catch you all soon, Have a Lovely day everyone.  xxx

Hello Bloggers,

Hope you have managed to stay warm today!  it has been so cold here, hope its been better where you are.
Managed to do all my food shopping and cooked Tea, so a bit of telly maybe and an early night! looking forward to curling up under my electric blanket tonight for sure.
Thought I would pop on and show you a Wall hanging that I made, I actually made it a while ago but as I was not posting on my blog it got filed.
I was pleased with it ...for once!  ha ha 

Thanks for calling, 
I am getting around to visit you as fast as I can, I have had difficulty finding my followers blogs as I can only find them if the call and leave comments. I have gone back over my posts and looked them up that way, but so slow!!
 I thought when you clicked on your followers pictures (top of blog) it showed you the blog, now it only shows you what blogs they are following!

           Hi Lovely Bloggers  Oh! how I have missed you all!
Well its been a long long time since I shared anything on my blog!  It's been a mixture of reasons really that kept me away.
I totally lost my Mojo big time!!!   so  creations were few and far between. 
2/  I had a change of craft area and it resulted in a huge clear out, I used to craft in the Dining end of my lounge so as you will guess my room was always cluttered....to me it was anyway! So  I have reclaimed my Lounge and had a complete change of decor, new carpet, some new furniture, plus curtains etc. Now it looks like a lounge instead of a craft room...  lol
Then I played around with other old neglected crafts...Sewing, knitting, Crochet, 
I thought of moving craft room into the loft, as it would now make a super craft room, So I bought all new Cube units etc. and kitted it out, looks good  :-)  however I  soon began to wonder if I would ever be bothered to go up there!???!!  so I have moved stash into the conservatory and we will see how things go...regarding heat  etc. ... thats talking about the summer of course ! when it comes!!! The Loft is still fitted out if I decide otherwise.
    The conservatory is only small but gives me the chance to see the garden and won't be shut away from hubby...aww!!!   plus everything is well stored and covered. 

Well In the meantime my Style in card making has changed ...maybe not to everyone taste! but I haven't done images for a long time.
here is a sample, will try over the next couple of weeks to catch up on everyone's news.
Thanks to those of you that stayed around xxx Mau
