Happy Birthday Bunty

Yesterday was my dearest friend Bunty's Birthday.
I didn't post this yesterday as I wanted to make sure the postie had been,
but since I didn't use elf post it got there just fine!

I send her this CD card with a quote that her beautiful niece Laura has on her bebo.
As you may know Laura died last month, and I was really torn weather or not to put it on the CD.

It sums Laura up.
And the amazing message she has left on all our hearts.

To love is Nothing.
To be loved is Something.
To love & be loved is Everything.

I made a few wee simple note cards and sent them in my first ever wallet card.




Bunty is an amazing women who fights for everyone who needs help!
She is an inspiration to me and many other who know and love her,

She was a tower of strength to Laura & Rich, and now to everyone who mourns Laura,
even though her own heart is breaking with her loss.

dance like no ones watching...

Once again I really enjoyed Chrissy Friday fable
The quote I have always loved, but shamefully never knew who said it.

Dance like no one is watching,

Sing like no one is listening,

Love like you’ve never been hurt,

Live like it’s heaven on earth.

Mark Twain

But here is my take on that!



I never ended up with a card like this one.
The ribbons make extra dimensions to her tutu.


I think I might also enter it for the ABC challenge
It is "E is for....Embellishments
Hope you are having a lovely weekend,
hugs

look at me!!!!!

Look at Poppy's new trick!

Yes that is a dog treat on her nose!
Yes she left it there until being told the command to take it!
This only took TWO attempts with Hubby this afternoon!!

Yes she is a clever clever Puppy!!

Now, If only I could train Hubby to behave so well!!!

not my usual style at all!

I tried something new today with the old card making....not sure I like results.

long time to deliver!

Two ladies at work had had new grand babies in the last wee while.
And I have been a bit slow in making these cards for them.

Jean's baby Grand daughter is called Matilda, Tilda for short.


I made this folded star type card for her with details about her birth....

And Marlene's daughter had a baby boy. Keir.

I made a much simpler card, but I like it just as much. I don't know his birth details.
The both have a little bit of ribbon on them but I thought I would put Tilda's one into the Thursday challenge....do you think it has enough ribbon for that?
Will need to go have a good look at the challenge and see...

Poppy Post!!!

I am still feeling under the weather, but the post I got this morning cheered me up so much!!!

Do you remember this picture?
It was poppy staring at some cream that she was trying to get by the power of thought alone!!!

well this arrived this morning from the wonderful Chrissy!!!!

It has captured the look in Poppy's eye when she was staring at the food so well!
I am just delighted with it!

I am gonna take some pictures of it and then get it properly framed!
Thank you so much Chrissy!
And this beautiful card with the amazing sea scene in it!


You are such a clever lady! You made me feel so much better!

nice bug, not so nice bug

haven't felt very well in the last few days....

I had a migraine yesterday, which is still lingering a bit, but I think I also have some sort of bug.
Slept a few times during the day cuddled into Poppy with a fleecy blanket
as I couldn't get warm.
Haven't even got dressed out of my PJ's today.

I have spent a wee while on and off looking round blogs....
And discovered this challenge...for winged things.
I tried to link a banner here, but haven't had brain power to do so....

So I finished a half made card I started the other day and added a
brooch I made from beads and wire.
A much nicer bug I think!


I think it needs a sentiment or something...but I am not sure who it is for....
And I think I will keep the brooch....
