Welcome......

Morning all - and welcome to my new follower - it really makes me smile when I see an extra number on my followers and I do try and follow you too.....which leads me onto an apology.....

My Dad has caught a serious infection, whilst on Chemotherapy, and is not getting better as we thought he would - I'm positive it's only time but it is taking a lot out of my family - so although I am crafting and peeking at blogs - I am finding it difficult to comment as I should - please be assured I am here though.

On top of everything Lewis broke a finger on his right hand playing cricket last week - tried to stop the ball going out of the boundary - you will be pleased to know that he did and they won the match but I don't think he feels like a winner at the moment :0(

My card today is plain and simple - it was for a gentleman's birthday and I didn't take my laptop (actually forgot it and felt like I'd lost my right arm !!!) to my Dad's just my Ebosser and a few dies and this is what I came up with.......

 

Hope you have a lovely long weekend

 

Hugs

Morning all

First let me apologise for my bad blogging - hopefully things will calm down at home soon and I will get back to normal.

We have had lots of lovely entries so far but don't forget there is still time to enter Lisa's challenge

Red and White

 

 

Today I have used Bucket of Roses - I tried it with lots of backing papers but settled with plain white card and embossed it which I'm pleased with.

Yesterday was my friend Anne's daughter's birthday - I saw this text layout on Kerry's blog and loved it so I gave it a whirl and love the way it came out.

Ruby goes digi.....

Good morning to all my lovely followers......

 

Today is my 13th wedding anniversary but John has had to go away for two weeks - not round the corner neither - all the way to Brazil. We did have a lovely lunch out yesterday but it's not quite the same as not having him here today.

 

My card today is LCI Swing Ruby which has finally made it to digi - Yey !!!

Isn't she just gorgeous.
