flower power

Hi bloggers,
Hope you are all having a good weekend so far. It has been lovely weather here today and my sis offered to take over looking after my nan for the day, so I spent the morning pottering in the garden and then this afternoon I had a trip to my local craft shop followed by lunch with hubby in a country pub. Then home to a nice relaxing soak in the bath and then an evening of crafting ...ooooohh what a fabulous day...please let me win the lotto so it can be everyday.....lol
Right enough of the dreaming! on to my cards

I am really loving these cute digi stamps from the digi stamp boutique. They are so easy to colour. I simply stamped a background with brown chalk ink. I then coloured her dress with prismas and masked then stamped the same brown flowers on it to coordinate. The flower punch is from woodware and added a few gems to finish

I love this cutie from elzybells too. This time I paper pieced her dress and coloured the rest with prismas. The pp is from a free download from the canon website ( I think) The flowers are a cuttlebug die and woodware punch

Hope you like them and enjoy the rest of your weekend.

cowboys and indians

Hiya peeps, long time no blog heh?

Heres a card that my niece asked me to make For a cowboy and indian themed wedding of all things.. I have to admit that I really struggled with it

I have no cowboy or indian stuff in my stash at all but after a plea for help One of my buddies over on Docrafts forum came to my rescue by sending me these images
The wording is computer generated
images are coloured with prismas
embossed hearts from a papermania stencil ( been a long time since my light box seen the light of day lol)
Added a couple of gems to finish

Now I have been asked to make another one from someone else...grrr I hate to say no but I think I'm gonna have too!!

My Nan is finally out of hosptial and doing well. Although still fragile she is in a much better frame of mind.
Thanks for all the lovely get well wishes, much appreciated xx

Update and thanks xx

Hi all,
Firstly can I say a huge thankyou to everyone who has left me such lovely messages and taken the time to email me with well wishes for my Nan. She is still in hospital, but is looking a lot better the last few days and I am soooooo hoping she will be back home by next week. My nan being so unwell of late has really shocked me. Because although she is almost 90 she has never been any serious illnesses before and she has sooooo NOT been a doddery old lady! She has been very active for her lady of her age. Guess we will just have to accept that she is a very old lady now (but please don't tell her I said that cos I will get a thick ear lol) The doctor has been to see her today and told her " your body is falling to bits but theres nothing wrong with your mind" .. pmsl, shes as sharp as a tack!!!

Still not made any cards cos I have been backwards and forwards to the hospital so much and trying to look after my mum aswell cos I think she has worried herself sick about my nan and she is having problems with her diabetes at the mo too. I don't know whether I am coming or going to be honest. Hopefully I will have something to show you over the next few days.. please don't desert me!!!!!! lol
