Hello Wednesday, here we are again. Well dare I say it but my back is ever so slightly better, or rather I am having more good days than bad with it. Still wearing a support when I go out, and still uncomfortable to sit for a long time,especially in the car but it is better than it was. Yay..go team me! Lol

So peekatures, well firstly here are another 2 cards made with the fabby papers and images on Kirstys new cd, please see previous post for all the details.

The first is using the 'Lemony Sherbert' files and the second is using the 'Jemima Cuppycake' files.








Next we have a set of 3 mini canvasses, decorated at our montly art group. I love how we all do the same thing but they always turn out so different.

Last weekend I made strawberry cheesecake cupcakes, inspired by some on my friend Jean’s blog, but I used a totally different recipe lol I a behind with my 52 cakes, I can see December being a cake a day kind of month lol I have bought ingredients this week to do something with plums and a lime jelly cheesecake….watch this space.



Next, my bookcases, finally finished. They now have the top boxes added and all filled up. I got my geek on and catalogued ALL of our books, well just the ones in the living room. We have lots of half sets of books, so now we have somewhere lovely to keep them I a on the look out for the missing books. On Bank Holiday Monday we went to a second hand shop in Alnwick, a long journey for me of 90 mins, but I was all strapped up and managed to get through the day. The book shop was amazing, huuuuge, and I picked up 15 second hand books. I went armed with a 14 page list printed out after the aforementioned catalogueing!

Finally, 2 posts ago I mentioned the tag swap I was in, well my tags from the other girls have arrived, here they are. All very lovely and lots of techniques going on. Just need to think of a way to disply them now. Ideas on the matter appreciated.

...and of course my desk, very untidy, full of the remnants of cardmaking. There are also a pile of doll making books under there and a protype bag made from 12 x 12 and sticky backed plastic .It needs a really good sort, as does the floor which I won’t be showing you as it really is that bad lol

Have a great day, see you all in cyberspace.x

OUCH! in lots of pain, the decorating, furniture building and attic sorting have taken their toll and I now have a really bad back....

in other news I spent the weekend at my friend jean's house, looking after her house, 2 dogs,cat and 6 chickens, while she was away. Up at 6.30am and feeding chucks in my pjs and boots by 7am...it's not a good look hahaha

On Monday it was our monthly art group, real name Efemera Ink...affectionally known as Glue and Stick...

This months project, put together as ever by the lovely
Ms.Efemera herself was a mini wall hanging. using pelmet vilene, text from a book, triple embossing, metal work,stitching and beading.

This is mine...

These are the ones done by everybody else, all the same but different...


This is my desk today, still fairly tidy. Stuff on the desk, a voucher from my friend for looking after her house, a video that i found in the attic of my sons birthday party from 1991. I now need to find a way of getting it onto a disc. Obligatory cup of fruity tea, some music discs and up the skirt of a doll that I have been making.

and here she is all finished, hanging up in my bedroom. When the window is open she gently twirls around.
