I'm Back And Ready to Craft.................

Hi and a good afternoon to everyone on another very grey, cold and rainy day in my part of Spain...its such a difference from the weather we had on our "mini hol" last week...it was glorious weather...but all good things come to an end they say!

This week I've been catching up on jobs...especially in the garden...I was going to have another stint in the garden today whilst hubby is at golf but as the saying goes " the best laid plans etc......LOL.....never mind hopefully the weather will pick up again over the weekend !!

Well as I implied earlier with the title I'm back blogging and ready to catch up on my cardmaking etc....I've missed my challenges for the last couple of weeks but I mean to make a start on more cards this evening....watch this space...lol. Have been on a bit of a blog hop over the past few days and really have to admit am still in awe of some of the terrific talent that's out there...brilliant...how I wish...LOL !!

Anyways this snippet of news if I can call it that was intended as just a quick post for those who read my blog...if anyone actually does...to let you know I'm still around and not AWOL...will be back soon with something to show you.

Take care!!

One Stitch At A Time Challenge #49

Good afternoon hope things are going well for you and hope the sun is shining...it is here thankfully...its been really grotty the past couple of days or so...high winds, really cold, and a fair amount of rain...my garden will have appreciated that but hubby was a bit worried yesterday thought his golfing might have been called off today....LOL

Anyways now for the reason I'm here....my card entry for OSAAT's Challenge #49 "Make It Pretty".....this is what I came up with....hope you like!



In the making of the card I used the fairy image from Stitchy Bear Digi Stamps...Promarkers...the sentiment "To my fairy best friend" was a download and I apologise to whoever posted it I forgot to note their name...the two backing papers are from Fred She Said...the ribbon, stick-on pearls, lace, corner peel-offs and glitter was from my stash.

Thank you for looking...pop by again...take care!!

A Big Oooops!................

Hi......for anyone who read my posting for the Sir Stampalot Challenge card I'm just posting this little apology to Pollycrafts...I said in my description of things used that the image was a download from a forum I used to belong to.....Noooooo....that was for the image I was going to use......the actual image on the card was from Pollycraft Designs. I have now edited my post and put the right acknowledgement in.....sorry Paula.....must have been one of my VERY senior moments...LOL

Take care!!
