So much for a steady day!!

Oh well I had planned on having a pretty steady day,few chores,

Ds to school and post Office,the gales have really whipped up and it is

rough standing up in them,I do not like driving when it is like this ,it makes me feel horrible when the Car is getting blown. Well a knock

came to the Door,my beloved Postman "oh few for you today" looking down I nearly dropped then!! on managing to lift them in the house all [4 ]it was lots o f my things I had ordered from USA,now need to un -load

Well I promised a sketch,so here is No1 and the one I did finished

Now I have my Bamboo and graphics,but sometimes its just so easy to sit and draw with the pen in hand,Iam a doodler at heart and if I have a pen and paper I just cannot help it,Even talking on the phone Iam scribbling or drawing something!!

Well it is turning into a very windy Night,wheelie trash bins banging and falling all over I can hear them whilst sitting here. Iam just finishing a CD swap and need to get ATC done then this can Mail Monday.

I just recieved a beautiful CD & ATC from Jana Fail,one of our friends over at KT Crafts,she is a wonderful person and her Darling Son has just gotten home from hospital [bless] so pleased he is doing well now.

I will post pictures later,oh and Jana sent me a lovely little Maya scalloped 8 page coaster album[now Iam itching to start this]

Now Iam sure if my gran was alive ,she would have to nail the kitchen table and chairs down,why!!!!!!!?? Well I just might have to alter them lol!!

Iam so pleased SAR`s[some assembly required] has come around ,love there thinking and they are fun girls,whilst its only the 2nd challenge Iam sure they will be whipping up some good things to alter in the future months!! get on over, the, link is on the right,go check it out

oh well I will love you and leave you,got to get this swap finished

oh the weather outside is awful,I have had a strange sorta day
nothing accomplished at all!! So much I want to do and need to
do ,but I feel like crawling up in a ball and hibernating till
some warmer weather arrives............
I need to finish some swaps and hopefully Iam going to start loading in
next few weeks some card sketches and layout sketches just for fun,and also it might make me shift my butt into gear a bit...........
Well I have some really big orders arriving from across the pond,I needed some more storage,it like shoes and handbags to me I have 6 three tier
12" stackers I already have 4 so it will make 10,my other half will probably collapse when they arrive,you see I had alot of cubes delivered at the back end of 2007 , twenty two truth be told, well I need to store my stuff don`t I

MY Black Number

Well I love how my little black number turned out for the SAR cigar box Challenge and it has found a new home already. Iam going to store my pearl-ex pigments and H20`s in this and maybe to another for the rest

I used Jenny Bowlin Vintage papers in black & Red and then antique cotton lace,with a prima flower of course with bling,cannot have Black without a bit of bling. Then I used wood alphas and painted them Black and attached pearls to the top of the letters "COCO" The image I used a plain cream Linen and messed around with a little Modge podge and Glue ,put my paper on the material and rubbed down well and left to dry over night and then damped my fingers and took the top layer of paper by rubbing gently and voila was left with the lovely image

Well suppose it is not everyones taste,but I like it and that is all that matters

Oh what a very,very cold Day,slipping and slidding ,nothing has de frosted today at all. My little rebel has been back today to school horray

I feel my sanity has been restored after last weeks holidays " were kids put on the earth to try & challenge us umh I often wonder

OH HOLIDAYS ARE OVER

Oh well school holidays are over back to school for my little guy today Iam feeling pretty rough,have done all day,sore throat headache, but there again this weather I do not like minus-6 degree and today they say
it is going to be freezing fog ,not looking forward to driving in this at all!
On a good point I did get one of my cigar boxes finished and Iam pretty pleased how it turned out,and it has a use already Iam going to store my
pearl-ex pigments and H20`s in it. I will post a picture later . Think this is the one Iam going to enter in SAR competition for Feb
well thats it till later....................

Well I have lifted another blog, Glee a wonderful friend over at Kt crafts
Glee does some wonderful work,and sketches wow the last card is a different take on tea bag folding and it is perfect in every way and the papers used holy moly,get on over and check Glee`s Blog.

Well The Design team over at KTCRAFTS got there challenge parcels from me today I just had to buy the "LOVE signs and paper I know they would never think of going out and buying this for themselves, This will be interesting
Vicki,Kristy and Barbara all have different tastes so to speak ,but hopefully this DCWV All dressed up stack covers all there tastes.
and I cannot wait to see what each one creates
well thats it for another day,besides me playing around and messing with some paper to make a card,but thats another story

Well The Cookie Tray

challenge result

Iam not 100% happy with it,but possibly it is me Iam just to much of a darn perfectionist when it comes to crafting/scrapbooking things have to be right.

Oh well Iam wondering if I should do a layout and enter the Design Team for Kt Crafts,Iam just so un-decided

Iam not even sure if my work is good enough for this at all.

I need to finish a project and wanting to start some others off and

DS having cold is not helping ,half term and crabby etc. Mind you we have a new addition to the family a Goldfish my DS wanted today,total

change from the things on 4 wheels Iam so used to buying . Just hope he does not want any off the other things we saw like snake,stick insects,camelion and a few other urghh creepies.
