Layer It Up



This week's challenge  at http://ooh-la-la-creationschallenges.blogspot.co.uk/ was  chosen by Michelle and she would like to see lots of layers on your creation.  Pop over and see the team's beautiful cards and join in with us.

The image and papers I used are from the Ooh-la-la Shawn Jenkins CD, the only addition I made was to die cut lots of  flowers  to add some layers and  some pearls and a ribbon.

Spring Feed




Hi I hope I have managed to visit most of the blogs I follow, if I have missed you, apologies, The dreaded internet is still not fixed.I have never been so frustrated with a problem before, it took 67min and 3 depts on Wednesday for them to escalate my complaint all I wanted to know was when the team that are responsible for underground cabling would be addressing the problem, got an answer today more than 48 hrs later that they should be finished by Monday evening.I'll wait and see I'm not holding out much hope.

This fun image is from The House Mouse Triple Cd, he's obviously eaten far too much and needs rescuing. Love the Spring colours in the image, so teamed it with yellows blues and greens.

Christmas Tag







Apologies if I haven't visited over the past week our internet which can only be described as poor at best has been almost non existent since last week despite an engineer's visit, all he could say was our speed was below what he would have expected, an engineer is to call again tomorrow, despite the first one saying it was nothing wrong in the house. BT are happy to take payment and at present are not providing an adequate service.

I am way behind in my Christmas cards/tags and spent Saturday afternoon making a few.
