You are a Lavender Rose



You represent love at first sight and enchantment.



Your vibe: intense and intriguing



Falling in love with you is: deep and meaningful

Morning..





from a dull Cheshire.Not the lovely sunny weather we've been having but at least it's not raining yet.
Do you find when making certain things that you become ..... er .... little obsessed.I know I do, well I've had a go at making boxes from a scrapbook magazine, made a black & white one a few days ago, couldn't resist doing some more so here they are ... along with more little books of 2 little cuties :)
and then of course I made an ATC book, more addiction :) 2 more made.It's amazing what you find when clearing out, the second atc book is made from pics in a
 magazine that a rellie in Michigan sent me a few years ago, along with some delicious fruity bits.
The one with the birds on, I did make a few weeks ago & just added some words and bits.I'm really pleased with the way  they turned out.

Happy crafting xx

Achey day......




today, so no sitting and crafting, can't really sit or stand for too long anyway :(
So I'm adding some things I have made over the weekend -

Top picture is someones valentines card :)  The box is for the same person, it's a paperfolding box, the idea was in a scrapbook magazine, not colour co-ordinated with the card but hey oh thats me :)
The last pic is of the civil ceremony card requested by my sil, for friends of hers.I think it turned out a lot better than I expected.Hope they like it.

Happy Monday -



or maybe not.Youngest is away for the week, I will miss him, but I'm sure he won't miss us :)
Naughty Puss, thought he would just have a nap on our bed, did he, well yes he did, I'm
a bigsoftie when it comes to the Puss :))

BG card challenge I did for last week, sorry it's late.The challenge was to use colours you don't normally use and I don't
 normally use soft colours.
I left the sentiment off, as I have'nt decided who to send it to yet.


Happy crafting xx

Monday Giveaway -

I know it's not Monday :) but I have a winner for the giveaway.
My daughter has just chosen comment number 2 (out of a hat) which is Lisa.Congratulations Lisa, I will package the goodies up and give them to you next week.
Don't worry folks I am thinking about doing one of these at least once a month, so more chances to get some craft goodies :))

Well it's been hailing here this morning yuk, the skies are looking quite full of snow lol, just better be thick snow, we've waited long enough to build a snowman.
Friday is craft afternoon, so I'm off to clean the house, pack my bag and head out to craft meet.
Take care and have a good and safe weekend. xx
