This is my take on Di Hickman`s sketch Nov ~#1 I loved trying this


you can find it here I loved this high quality double sided paper from Graphic 45,some lace from my stash ,corsage pin and pearl brad with prima flower behind it,the rub on is one I had not sure of manufacturer of it sorry!!

Well after running around like a headless chicken yesterday I so needed to make something,honest I never stopped yesterday and then had school meeting to go to,I feel sort of icky today but think it might have been the Big LACK of coffeee I crave daily lol!! honest I could not survive without my coffee.......................................

I have now gotten things/ideas wazzed around,but still find my self laying awake at night to fill the inner void with something else,I think I might have to write them down or do a sketch. I did finish the big piece of work and done a few smaller ones, but off to go try another idea I have will it work!!?........... don`t ask me I`m going to give it a go though I`m in recycling mode lol...........

11th,day of the 11th hour,of the 11th Month


Let us not forget........





In Flander's Fields
In Flanders fields the poppies blow

Between the crosses, row on row,

That mark our place;

and in the sky The larks,

still bravely singing,

flyScarce heard amid the guns below.

We are Dead. Short days ago We lived,

felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved,

and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders fields.

Take up your quarrel with the foe;


To you from falling hands we throw The torch;
be yours to hold it high.

If ye break faith with us who die

We shall not sleep,

though poppies grow In Flanders fields.


(written by Liet.-Col. John McCrae, a Canadian serving at Ypres)

Pumpkin Patch

DS and his cousin on the trailer we travelled on to the pumkins patch,which they thought was great we sat on bails of straw and this had us in fits of laughter,a lady on the trailer ,did not like all the divets we kept going down and at one point the trailer skids ,well she kept letting out all these screams and noise`s all the kids faces ,well just a picture wondering what this lady was yelling out out....

Me and DS sat on straw bails working out what they wanted to do next,it was such a freezing cold day...........

The witch came out of her house, and stood near us well talk about roar with laughter my DS and niece were off like a shot.............


Look at all the different shapes,sizes and colors of these gourds,pretty amazing!.......

Well silly me! I loaded these to publish later and forgot lol!! These are pictures from our trip to the muddy pumpkin patch, My Ds has not been well so my minds all over ,last night was our celebrations for Guy fawkes night with bonfires and fireworks,but it was pretty quiet with it falling mid week,so our`s will be on saturday Night.

monochrome

Oh I can now share the layout I had published in the scrapbook news & reviews seeing my agreement has cleared the dates, this was my first ever published pieces and I was jumping with joy when I got the e-mail,but when I looked again I thought someone was pulling my leg then I got the contract through to sign so I then knew it was cosha!
this was just plain white card and hand cut scalloping and a technique tuesday stamp used for the flowers the dots were all done using stickles and it took time,abit of faux stitching and my DS in special care unit
