Thank you Kirsty

Thank You Kirsty for the surprise package I received in the mail.  It was a pretty package of chipboard shapes with a beautiful handmade card that I adore.

Having a little more trouble staying down than I thought I would have but I know that is only prolonging the healing process, but I am trying..................

Thanks again Kirsty!!!!!!!!

Not easy just laying around

First of all this is not as easy as it sounds.... When your not used to being off your feet and doing for yourself, it is hard to get used to.  I actually have not yet and find myself up and about without even thinking about it, anyway here is one of my first little projects.......

I call them purse pals.. they are about 4" long and 1 1/2" wide.  When you don't want to carry a big tablet or note pad in your purse these are just the right size to jot down a phone number or blog address.

I added a little embellishment on the front and put a clip to help keep it closed//

Surprise Vacation ??????????????

Surprise Vacation ??????????????

I hope everyone is having a great weekend.

Don"t know if you would call this a vacation, but it was a surprise

I had a doctor appointment Thursday morning but ended up in the ER on Wednesday, was admitted and

came home yesterday.  Although someone waited on me for everything I can't really consider it a vacation.  Anyway I am home will be completely off my feet for 5 to 6 weeks so I hope to use this time to do some serious crafting.

Hope to catch up visiting all of your blogs...............

Happy Birthday Kirsty

Kirsty was one of  my first blog buddys,,,shortly after we became friends she started the CCCB.  I was one of her designers until frequent trips to the hospital forced me to step down so I wouldn't keep interupting her schdule.  I miss all of the team a lot...........anyway Kirsty has done an amazing job with the CCCB and her new project which has taken off like crazy Pixie Dust Paperie 

Kirsty have a great birthday and I am truely glad we became blog buddies.....................

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KIRSTY

Just made a trip to my mailbox and I received a package from my good blog buddy Ros.
What was in the package was amazing...........want to see?

all of these embellishments are gorgeous,  but my favorite is the handmade card.  Ros does beautiful work and this card is no exception.  It will go in my frame on the wall in my craft room to admire along with all the other cards I have gotten, there are even some from Ros already there.
