oh how strange

I just wonder what is happening with the weather and the earth Tremor we had on wednesday, I hope I never sit through one again,my house was shaking so voilently from side to side and top to bottom,it was surreal knowing I was shaking ,knowing something was happening but not what is was at the start,and then knowing something was so wrong, I just had to grab my little man and hold him tight and be ready to run out the door ,just horrible and Scary
I was driving the next morning thinking oh this might not have been here,I might not be driving down here that sorts of thing,we take life for granted don`t we!!!!!!!!!!. It just proves we might nag,moan take things for granted ,but we have so much to be thankful for everday.
when I picked my little man up from school h said " mam I dont like them louds shaking,"pointing to the clouds in the sky,oh bless!!!!
I have done no crafting,just buying lol!!!!!! well I might need it for something. Honest let me near craft/scrapbook supplies and it like letting a child loose in a candy shop
I really must get on,but just so tired and it now looks like these gales are going to disturb my sleep,oh well another day,another dollar.......

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
