BARBECUE MAN

Hello dear blog friends and visitors.
I am so sorry I have been away for such a long time.
I needed to catch up on my housework that went all haywire over 
the past few weeks.
I also had to go back to Wales as I had booked to go to the NEC
Stitch and Craft Show with my sister who lives there.
I bought some lovely goodies while I was there.
We visited on the Sunday and as you all may know the weather
was not very kind to us.
I really enjoyed the day despite the weather as it was my first
visit to one of these shows, I do hope it won't be my last as I 
spent far tooooooooo much money as you do. lol.

THANK YOU for all your wonderful wishes and comments.
I very much appreciate every one that you make.
I am still suffering with this problem I have got in the top of my
spine. The pain has now gone but I'm left with a great deal of
numbness in my left finger tips. Luckily it doesn't affect my 
crafting only my typing, good job I don't do that for a living. lol.
I know some of you might think this is carpel tunnel syndrome,
but I had that op 5 years ago.
Well that's enough of my probs there are peeps a lot worse off
than me.

Today I have a card I made for my daughter's partner.
As soon as I saw this image I knew it was for him as we call
him the king of barbecues, as he make such good food for it.

Click to enlarge.

Now the inside.



The digi image was a Mo Manning one coloured in with 
Promarkers, Flexmarkers, and Tria Markers.
The papers used were a combination of Kaisercraft, Dovecraft,
and Papermania.
I used the Grand Scolloped Squares Die, Di-namics Rounded
Banners Die, Di-namics Stars Die, Di-namics Corner Die and
the Grand Square Die.

Thank you again for your visit and patience with my blog.
I do hope you are all keeping well, with this nasty cold weather
we have been having.
I now need a mortgage to pay my electric bill as I am all 
electric. lol.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

people and visitors.
THANK YOU soooooooo much for your very thoughtful and 
kind comments.
You are all such a kind and caring community, I feel very honoured
to be part of such a wonderful community, and to call you all my

I am sorry I haven't got around to visiting your blogs and commenting on your lovely creations.
I seem to be very pushed for time at the moment and needed to 
get my cards made before going back to Wales for my Dad's
funeral.
I also have a problem typing because of a trapped nerve in the
top of my spine.
 
This evening I have another card made for another grandson.
His Birthday is on the 17th of this month.
I know I have shown you 2 similar cards with the same image,
but when I purchased the image I knew I could use it for at
least 3 of my grandsons.

and visitors.
THANK YOU for all the wonderful comments on my last
card.
I hope the weather has been good to you where you live.
It has been very cold in Kent and windy too, the temperature 
hardly got above freezing today.
The yellow thing in the sky that warms us up made a short 
appearance for about 15 minutes around lunch time.
It could have given us a few more hours of sunshine now
couldn't it.
Well never mind there's always tomorrow maybe the sun will 
shine a little bit longer, but then again it could rain or throw
that horrid white stuff at us.

My card today I made with a freebie image from the Whoopsi 
Daisy Images.
I do actually buy some too. lol.

BOX FOR THE BABY GIRL CARD

Good evening dear blog friends and visitors.
I do hope you have had a wonderful day, and those that have 
had the snow are managing to keep nice and warm.
THANK YOU for all your wonderful comments on my Baby
Girl Card.
I was so thrilled with them all especially the one from the 
Pink Gems D T member who made a fabulous comment on 
my entry into their challenge.

Today I have had to visit the hospital in Canterbury for a further
check up on my eyes. I can't believe a sight test and an eye scan 
can take two and half hours.
The problem with my eyes started about 3 years ago when I 
would loose a letter or a number in a word or figures. It seems I 
have a condition called Mactel for short version of a big long
name. This is basically cysts behind the eyeball which will
result in me loosing a lot of my eyesight one day, but it's very
slow moving and hopefully that will be many years from  now.
When I visit your blogs I have to zoom your text to be able to 
read it. Well that's enough of my probs I expect there are more
people with worse than that to cope with out there.

So to the box to go with the Baby Girl Card.

Click on the photo to enlarge the picture.

Thank you again for your visit and comments.

BABY GIRL CARD

Good evening to all you wonderful talented crafts people and 
visitors.
I do hope this cold weather isn't making you too miserable.
At least we can get some lovely jubbly crafting done that's if you
don't have to go to work.
Well it's the 2nd week I have had to cancel my little club I run,
don't want any of my ladies slipping over in the snow and ice,
and the hall we meet in is very cold at the best of times without
this horrible freezing weather.

Today I have made a Baby Girl card for my sister to give
to her granddaughter in February. I still have to make a book
one in a box for my niece to give her. She know it's a girl as it
is her 4th child that will be 3 girls and 1 boy when she has this
one in February. She is slowly catching up to her grandmother
who had 5 children.

The netting was given to me by the lovely Sue P.
Sentiment done on the computer.
Thank you again for your visit.
I hope you all are keeping nice and warm and managing to
slot a little craft into your days.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.
I would like to enter this into the following challenges.

MY TREASURED FRIEND MY TEDDY BEAR

Good evening dear blog friends and visitors
I can't believe it's Friday evening already.
I am so sorry I haven't posted much this week or commented
on any of your fabulous work.
It's been one of those awful weeks with a hundred and one things
to do and not enough time to do them in, or it's just me slowing
down, or my age. Well that's my excuse in any rate.

I do hope you are all keeping nice and warm in this dreadful
cold weather. Isn't it just awfully cold at the moment.

My Dad got taken into hospital last night, and with all this
horrid weather I can't even make the journey to Wales to see
him.

My card today is one I have made for my neighbour  who is
96 tomorrow.  She hasn't got very good sight these days so
hence the big writing.

Now the inside.


I photographed this before I put the Happy Birthday on it.
The papers are Dovecraft, and the image is one that was already
coloured in as I needed this card made in a hurry and didn't have
time to colour it in.
Thank you again for your visit and your wonderful comments on
my last post.
I really do appreciate every comment that you make.
I hope you all have a wonderful Saturday tomorrow.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

Well it's the start of another week, and I do hope you all had
a wonderful weekend.
THANK YOU for your visit to my blog and for all the wonderful 
comments that you make.

Well it's my youngest granddaughter's Birthday on Friday and
she will be 5 years old.
She has just started school last September, but up until last May
I looked after her on a Monday and Thursday.
Then her Mum gave up work to spend the last few months with
her before she started school.
So here is the card I made for her Birthday.
