day 13...

Day 13 of 2009!!

Thank you to Natalie who made up for laughing at me
telling how I was out in the storm in my nightie
picking up recycling in the middle of the night!!!!

This arrived for me today!


I used the mouse with the cake to make this wee card.

Its smaller than I normally make but used up the scrappy bits of
papermania SCRUMPTIOUS.

It is using Dawny P's sketch for Papertake weekly.

Arty Girlz want us to Button it....so it has buttons on.
And My Time to Craft say Mice and easy!

I need to have a look at paper piecing for the spoonful of sugar challenge.

Been a lovely slow relaxing day today.....
Talking of slow....
I was late posting this for Jen's Birthday the other week.


but the post office seem to be on a go slow just now too....
and it arrived at long last today!

I found this picture online years ago, can't remember where,
but if you look at the picture straight on it is a mountain range....
and side on it is
an adult and child! I love it !

Did you turn you head to the side to look?

No?

You are now though aren't you!!!


I responded to Crafty Ribbons challenge to use their new Valentines ribbons to make two valentines cards....I got a lovely load of ribbons to play with.


I didn't take a great picture.....and had already used some of the ribbons...
I was too busy planning what I was going to do with all the lovely ribbons!!
There was more buttons and puffed hearts to play with ,
but they are already stuck on a card!

I got my Valentines cards ready to post Pat who is collecting them for the children at Children's Hospital of Michigan.

But just looked at the photo and a metalic heart in the corner
has slipped and needs to be taken off and re-glued back down on the next card.



Thanks to Curt for posting about that.
Have you seen what blog candy he has on offer!
And go have a look at his fab photos!



Oh and I forgot ER was back for its last series.
I must admit....I used to love it but have going off it the
last few series for some reason.
It is time I think for them to call it quits.

But OMG I cried last night when I watched it!!
So sad. I know it only a programme.....BUT!!!!

Anyway...............
