WOYWW - Week 72

Good Morning all.  I hope you are all well.  Thankyou for visiting my blog.  My desk this morning is a bit of a tip!  I have been working on a scrapbook for my husband who is 60 on Friday!  I am trying to get it finished in time.  Only one page to go!  Every time he comes up the stairs I have to hide it under a pile of papers.  You can see the front cover right at the front of my desk!  I hope he likes it!
Last week we were at Center Parcs in Cumbria.  What a great time we had.  There was 20 of us ranging from 18 months to 77 years young.  We had a girly night at the Spa, just relaxing and trying out all the pools and saunas when the fire alarm went off.  Thankfully it was a false alarm. 
I tried my hand at pottery  and here is a photo of the plate I painted.  I was rather pleased with it.  Can't wait to fill it with Christmas goodies.


Last week I was lucky to win a Hougie Board in one of the craft magazines.  I have also won 2 tickets to the SECC in Glasgow this weekend for the Craft Show.  I shall try not to spend too much! 
On Sunday I am going to a one day Christmas workshop up in Perth.  It'll be a good day.
Thankyou so much for visiting me.  Why not pop over to Julia's at The Stamping Ground to find out more about WOYWW!

Craftrak Cards

Happy Friday all.  The end of another week.  I hope you all have had a good one and looking forward to the weekend whatever you are doing.  We are going to a friend's wedding.  Am really looking forward to it.  I hope the weather stays fine.

Here are a couple of Craftrak cards I have made.  If you are wondering what Craftrak is visit http://www.craftrak.com/.  It is a card exchange.  You get to make new friends and receive some lovely cards at the same time.
Thanks for visiting me.

WOYWW - 70


Good Morning All

I hope all is ok with you.  My desk this morning is showing a card I made at a new craft club that has just started in Perth. We meet once a month.  Irene very kindly started us off with this lovely card using Tilda.

This is the front of the card.



This is the inside.

We all had a lovely afternoon, chatting, getting to know one another. Swapping ideas, we had a raffle. We did a die-cut swap. Someone made home-made cakes. The afternoon passed so quickly, I can't wait till the next meeting.

If you would like to join in with WOYWW, go to Julia's blog - The Stamping Ground.   I hope you all have a good week, whatever you are doing.

Thanks for taking the time to have a look.

Oops. Just realised I pressed the wrong button and have published this post a day early.  Have a busy day tomorrow - that's why I'm doing this on a Tuesday!

Dancing Tilda


Hello ladies
I'm afraid this card hasn't scanned very well.  I don't know what's wrong but it is taking ages to upload too.  I made this card for a friend whose birthday it is next week.  I have used Dancing Tilda, a Martha Stewart punch, some flowers from Orchid Crafts and ribbon from my stash.
I hope she likes it.
Happy Crafting Everybody!
Have a good weekend.
