Grandma

This is the only picture I have of my Grandma so I wanted to do something special, my very good friend Jackie brought me this beautiful Anna Griffin Kit which was perfect for the job.

The pleating was a challenge for a beginer but I got there in the end as this pack contains brilliant step by step instructions


What a messy desk , why does it take so little time to get out and soooooo long to tidy away???

My last post for today, I was walking over the fields at work and came across and couple of Owl feathers, I just had to make my nephew a card using my favorite Cricut Cartridge "Cindy Loo", I know he will love it......

Well the easter weekend was a wash out as far as the weather was concerned, was I down hearted? No....my friend came for a Crafty Weekend and we stamped, glued, glittered, drank tea and chatted having a lovely time.....

I used the Indigo Blu flitter glue for the first time WOW.........

here is a sample using Stampin Up stamps, chalk inks for the flower I did the reeds with the flitter glu and which stuck the gold leaf on perfectly

My friend made this card.......

the stamp is from Indigo Blu, it has fantastic detail and looks brilliant


I am on a roll......another for the album

Well finally the finished pages...............

I can already see how I could have done this differently so I must be learning. 

The picture of my sister taking one last look back as a singleton has to be my favorite and although 9 years have passed since that day I still remember her excitment thinking about how her life was about to change
