Sorry time has gone so fast!!!!

I am so sorry it has been along time since I have been on here, poor blog has been neglected for the last couple of months, no real reason until I broke my ankle badly and now Im layed up. To those who know about this sorry i will just type this out of my head.
I was walking Brin our dog on the rockies beach which is exactly what it says and yes I slipped I didnt fall but my ankle went snap. mmmmmmmmmm nice, it wasnt sore but i shouted my mum sat down the screamed for no real reason other than I was panicing at the thought of what the ambulance and doctors would have to do to me. The ambulance took a very long time to get me they were 24 miles away from where they should have been Nairn has a very large population and yet we only have 1 ambulance which wasnt where it should have been. Being a first aider I new not to move it, no one asked if the tide was coming in or if being on the beach I was in danger. I was getting colder by the minute and my hubby got to me from 17 miles away just as the ambulance did and Iheard him coming he was so annoyed with them. The doc gave me morphine 2 lots, and i was given gas and air the found i had broken it in 3 places and a dislocation so once they got me comfy and up to the ward they found that the morphine hadnt gone into my vane anyway I have rambled on a bit and i appologise but it was traumatic so far i have had 6 casts on because of swelling i was in hospital for a week.

I would like to wish you all a HAPPY NEW YEAR AND ALL THE VERY BEST FOR 2010.

October already

Where has September gone I seemed to blink my eyes and October is here, this is the month to do my christmas cake and make a huge effort to start my christmas cards which this year is odd as I usually make 10 a month starting January, but that didnt happen.
I also want to make a start on christmas presents.
We are also having a community day in Nairn and we have been given a table to show what we do at the craft club and also sell some items. thats the 21st November.
So all in all a busy month.

This is a card I did for Heather, I stamped a self coloured flower onto printed card the same colours and it worked very well

GOOD LUCK GIRLS!!!

I was going to a housewarming party last night and realised I hadnt made a card so I had seen this done by one of the ladies that come to our craft club so although I have to work on the measurements for a 1st attempt im quite happy they were very impressed.

I made this card for a dear friend who has just had an operation, Its 3 layer decoupage and I used the easiscore board for the wavey line. cut out tags free hand and I love to add corners.

Well I have been doing another wedding card and once again I chose a bookatrix, I do like doing them they always come out just the way you want them, I have scanned this one in to see if it gives a better picture than the camera. MMMmmmmmm not sure the jury is out on that one.
I have chosen cream and gold as i dont know the colours of the wedding with coral h20s to highlight the flowers. there is detail on each page a verse, hearts, wedding rings, 2 roses, and whats on the front. The ribbon I got from a friend in a swap which is gorgous and sets the card off just right.

finished parchment card

Well heres my finished parchment card, i have to say I am delighted with it and hope my friend it to. she will be getting it tomorrow.
I printed off the happy birthday wishes and her name on the computer and used the silver tinta ink and traced it then whenthat was dried i embossed it from the back and used brads to attach them.
