phew just in time!!!

Here's my stars and stripes card for the anything goes challenge close run thing but done it actually it was a rejigged card I did a couple of weeks ago before the house took over my life.

It already had the stripes so I cut a few stars and added them , distress inked the image and edged all the card with frayed burlap. The image is a new lotv (lily of the valley) little boy and I think he is so cute and probably naughty too. x

"My house is a very nice house"

This is the view outside my kitchen door and I love it the garden is quiet and the woods are beyond, mind you magpies are soo noisy but its better than traffic.

This is the kitchen minus fridge and washer but its not staying its coming out and an extension is planned mind you its getting out of control lol it started as a kitchen dinning room now a utility and downstairs loo is being thought about (you know old age and incontinence )
And finally this is the front room no telly yet but I loved the fireplace thought it was lime stone lol "buyer beware" its MDF looks good though well it will when that paper is off and the furniture is arranged and put back together instead of being dumped down anywhere. I am shattered as it has needed a clean (and some) thank the lord for fairy power spray, but by the weekend (WHICH ONE!!)I should be almost be there.So what this is, it is my excuse for not doing my DT work for Lynne I will try better next week miss but I cant promise ha ha xx

Another Wedding Picture (again)

Sara being ethereal as usual I love this pic what more can I say x

MOVING IN AT LAST WAY HAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thurs is moving day all being well,if it all goes to plan.
I have had a weekend and a half I've bought a washing machine a new fangled telly and a fridge, organised new house insurance trying to organise council tax but they are busy at the moment I've decided to wait till I get in to order a new suite coz of sizes of doors etc and this new house is now the size of a shoe box in my mind.SO anyway Mums got the flags out (I could be hurt) she has just said I'm not hoovering round this table again till its gone I think the stress is showing lol. I shall not have time to craft for the next couple of weeks so I have stored up a few things (forgot about them actually)and I shall post them as and when I get bored of seeing the same post every day on my blog and so you all think I'm so industrious ha ha x

anything goes challenge

This week I made two projects for the anything goes challenge the theme is vintage and as I was under the weather on Fri (cannot eat curry ever again:( ) so I did a scrapbook page and a magnolia easel card. The papers I used for the page are black market ones torn and cut out and layered all distressed with brushed corduroy and the letters are coloured with copics. On the card I have used Tim distressing tool on every edge and torn a bit of paper then again gone round every edge with brushed corduroy Thanks for stopping by xx

Another Wedding Picture

Here is another wedding picture of my three girlie's this time and actually I haven't got many of them together I hope the photographer has or we shall have to do the whole day again lol. I cannot believe its only a week ago and the happy couple are now in Mauritius after three days in Dubai (lucky them) mind you the weather has been fab here all week (lucky us)!!

Week 4 on Anything Goes Challenge was a bit of a challenge itself I was sooo busy last week with the wedding but I got it done thanks in part to sketch Saturday who saved my life again what would we do without them and Friday sketchers too, Magnolia cupcake on mixed paper background from wild rose studio, candy floss is the name and the image is coloured with copics mounted on bazzil everything except the tiny cupcake is from the craft den and that is actually mums (I pinched it!) x
