New Car/Birthday

Hi all

Just had to let you all know I'm so excited that at last we have a car after nearly 5 months without one in the middle of know where It's been a knightmere.  The Gap Insurance Company wouldn't pay out they only wanted to pay £312.00 which was a load of rubbish so our Finance Company ended up taking them to court.  So it finally went off our credit report a couple of weeks ago.  It's driven us mad.  Anyway thanks to Paul's step Dad Andrew he got a new car and we've bought his from him.  It's an 08 Renault Megan.

So it's my birthday today 1st May and Paul's got the day off work so we can actually go out for the day which will be lovely.  I'm so sick of seeing these 4 walls let me tell you.

Hope your all okay and haven't got too much rain.  It's been lovely here in Norfolk today but don't know how long that will last for.

Speak to you soon.

DDS #104 April Showers

Hi all

Well it's Team's Karen's turn for the Challenge this week for Digi Doodle Shop's Best Challenge Blog which is "April Showers".  So I hope you like my card, the images I've used are Country Pond and 1800 Vintage Dress.  I coloured my images in with Promarkers and I did two images of Country Pond.  I added the Vintage Dress ontop of the image then I coloured and cut out the flowers again added 3d foam pads on it then decoupaged them on top.  The backing paper is a paper from my new My Craft Studio cd rom, then added the saying and a gem to the card.  Which is very true at the moment considering we are supposed to be having a drought in our County and all it's done is rain each day.

Two new cards

Hi all

Hope your all okay. The weather here has been really weird all week. Yesterday we had hale stones and the shower lasted ages. It came down really hard and fast very odd. No rain today but I think we had some in the night. Mum and Dad live in Hull and they've had rain all day today it was driving them mad. Mum's been trying to go for a small walk each day after her hip operation so she couldn't go today.

I've added a couple more cards I've made along with my faithful assistant Hannah who is never to far away from me (bless her) even now she's layed on the lounge floor near me. Paul's on a late shift and is not back while about 11 pm. He's back at work today after doing his M.T. driving stint covering for the lads who are getting tanker driver training in case of the strike.

DDS #102 New Stash

Hi all

I'm so excited at the moment. This is my first Design Team and my first Challenge for Digi Doodle Shop Challenge Blog . So this is my first post as part of the very talented design teams. I'm on Team Karen's team. Please check out the other members fantastic blogs.

This weeks challenge is to create "using a new statsh"

which is good for me as it's all new to me. The image I have chosen is Spring Time Bunnies . I thought it was so cute and would do as an Easter card, Birthday card or even an Hello card. Also the backing paper is new as it was a free gift in Simply Homemade Magazine, and the other strip of paper is from a new cd rom I've got. I've also coloured the image in with some new Flexmarkers I got at the weekend.

While I remember Digi Doodle Shop are having a sale so please check out the fab products.

So please join in in my first Challenge and I'll look forward to seeing your cards.

Hi

I completely forgot to add these to my blog. This was my Mum's Mother's Day card and present. The card was an idea I saw on Create and Craft which was demonstrated by Roy from Dimension Stamps. It's an 8 x 8 card which has the backing paper which is new from Do Crafts it's a Fabric paper and the back is sticky, it's very clever and good. I used some wadding which I stuck on a separate piece of card which I distressed then added the wadding and the fabric paper on top. I then used Dimension Stamps Alphabet Stamp set and coloured them in with pro markers and cut them out. I used Sheena Douglas's new cd rom for both the heart hanger and the card. I used a doillie for behind it and some flowers, hat pins and ribbons for the rest of it. Hope you like them. Mum did.
