Another House




Well when I made the first two I was on a roll as here is another, again I used Artistic Stamper background for the roof and Tim stamps for the rest, also the same as before with the inks, dabbers, crackle paint and tag, but forgot I did use the white pen to. Hope you like this one also and thanks for looking xx

Houses


Here are 2 of my houses I have made for a swap I am in, this is the first crafting I have done in ages and I enjoyed making them once I got going.
They have had everything thrown at them, Dabbers, Distress Ink Pads, Crackle paint and Alcohol Ink background papers for the Lady and Man. I have used Artistic Stamper background stamp for the roof and the others are Tim Holtz designs as is the tag at the top of the house, hope you like them and sorry its a brief description, thanks for looking x

Friends ATC



Well I have not made one of these in ages, in fact this is the first bit of crafting for me since before Christmas, I go through non-crafty stages, This is an ATC for a monthly swap I have joined, I have stamped the girls and then masked them, used distres inks and a dotty background stamp, I coloured in the girls with my ever faithful promarkers, the cherish is a Tim ideaology tag and coloured in white, I forgot just how small an ATC is and wanted to cram more on than possible but I am happy with the result. Hope you like and thanks for looking xx

Woo Hoo I did it

Well I am over the moon today, I have been on a diet almost 6 months now, the reason was of course I was overweight but I had high cholesterol ( not sure I spelt that correctly) well I have been doing the diet on my own with the nurse at my doctors weighing me every 3 weeks, I have not cheated once and today when I saw her I have lost my target weight plus 2lb more and my total weight loss is 58lb and I have lowered my Cholesterol to and will not need pills, so I was just so happy :-) plus to keep me motivated my daughter and i are doing the walk the walk next May in London, all 26 miles of it I hope, so we will have a 12 week training programme to follow next year. Well just had to advertise this loss to someone and here it is, thanks for reading love from a very happy me xxx
