My first Card In A Box or Pop Up Box



Hi all

This is a card I've made for Paul's Grandma's Birthday.  I'm so pleased with how it turned out.  I found a tutorial that Nikky |Hall from Polka Doodle's done and it was so easy one she explained it.  I've used Sheena Douglass stamped flowers and coloured them in with my Spectrum Noir Pens.  Hope you like it.  \\

Hope everyone's okay and having a lovely Valentines Day.  |Paul spoilt me and bought me a card and flowers but unfottunatley he's at work tonight so I'm home alone with just be and Hannah (dog) who's fast asleep on the rug in front of the log burner.

Hugs.

Hello My first Road Trip Scarf

Sorry I've not blogged in ages I've been busy crafting away and kept forgetting to blog.  I've been learning to crochet and loving it, I'm getting quite addicted to it now.  Very relaxing in an evening in front of the TV and much quicker than my knitting used to be.


Here's a photo of my first Road Trip Scarf.  I'm sure it won't be my last one.

Hope your all keeping well.

Hugs.

Etsy Shop

Hi all

Hope your all okay and the weather is lovely where you are too?/  I've finally got round to setting up an Etsy Shop.  I've been thinking of doing one for a long time but with moving and life generally getting in the way I've not had the chance.  So at last I've plucked up the courage to do it.  Here's my link.

https://www.etsy.com/shop/JenzBitzandBobs?ref=hdr_shop_menu

Please drop by and have a look.  I'm going to try and keep adding new things in all the time.

Polkadoodle card

Hi all

I've made this card for one of my nieces 18th Birthday.  I've used one of Polkadoodle's cd's and coloured it in with Spectrum Noir pens. Pumched flowers and leaves and gems.


Hope your all okay?  Sorry I've not blogged for a while Don't know where time goes.  It's been mad since Christmas.  Grandad Johnson has had to have another Cancer operation bless him he's 90 in September and he goes back after Easter to check how it's going so we're all keeping our fingers crossed. 

I've had my meds changed I've been given morphine patches for my back, I had to come off one lot of meds and it knocked me for six.  I've never felt so tired in all my life.  I've never been one for sleeping during the day but I could have just sat down and nodded off it was awful.  Took me a while to get used to it.  I've recently been back to my GP and they have given me the next one up as I felt it didn't really make any differnece and I was still taking my Tramadol and 8 Paracetamol each day and still in pain.  So we'll give them a chance and see how it goes. 

Then Hannah our gorgeous dog came ill and wouldn't eat.  We had to take her to the vets who put her on a drip.  We thoought we were going to loose her.  She's nearly 14 and we love her to bits.  Her Gallbladder was 9 times it's size and her Kidney's were really high.  After about a month of backwards and forwardsing to  the vets Her Kidney's have gone down and her Gallbladder is 5 times it's size so the meds are working and she's back to her happy self.  We'll keep an eye on her and hope she keeps improving the vet was really pleased with her last week.

Paul left the RAF last year as you know and hasn't been able to get a job.  We've become Forever Living Distributors which we love but we need a regular income.  So to cut a long story short Paul has started a cours in London so he's there Mon to Fri it's an IT Consultant course for FDM and they get him a job at the end of it so fingers crossed there too.  He's doing really well and has been there 5 weeks already.

So as you can see it's been mad. 

Hope you like the card.  Please leave a comment.

Hugs
Jenny

BeBunni Card

Hi

Sorry for not blogging in a while don't know where time goes sometimes.  It's been mad since Christmas.  First of all Grandad Johnson was ill and in hospital.  Then I've been given Morphine patches for my back and it had a knock on affect with my other meds and knoecked me out for six.  I've knocked the other meds off now and am back on track so that's good.  Then Hannah our dog has been ill.  She's still not out of the woods yet as she's 14 bless her so we take each day at a time.  I don't think all this rain and  damp weather we've been having is helping do you?  I'll be glad when Spring and the bettter weather is here.  At least I've got my crafting to keep me going.  I do love it so much.

This is Hubbie's Valentine's card that I made him.  I do the the Bebunni Collection from Crafter's Companion it's gorgeous.  Mind you I've just treat myself to the new 4 day deal this week too.


Hope you like it it's coloured in with my Spectrum Noir pens and the paper and border are from the cd rom, the corners and swirls are from my new Brother Scan and Cut which I am loving too.

Have a great week everyone.  Hope your all keeping well.

Snowman & Snowdog Card




Hi all

Sorry I've not been been around for a while.  I've been a bit mad since we've moved.  Paul's been trying to get a job and has applied for 100 jobs and had 5 interviews.  So after a lot of looking around we've become Independent Distributors for Forever Living Products.  It's an Aloe Vera base company and we just love the products.

I've have still been busy with my cards though.  Here's one I've done following a Tutorial on the Crafter's Companion Blog by Linda Hill.

Hope your all doing okay.

Hugs

Finally Moved

Hi

Sorry I've not blogged for a little while it's been a bit mad recently.  We've finally moved house at last.  It's been hard as we've had to move ourselves this time.  It's Paul's last move from the RAF and believe it or not they leave you to it and don't pay for it or help with the move so we've had to pack and do it all ourselves.  We didn't realise how much stuff we actually had until we've moved.  I have to say though I'm not going to miss the RAF or the quarters etc.  The house we've found is lovely it's in Lincolnshire and it's 3 bedroomed detached and I actually have claimed the study downstairs as my craft room (yeah).  It's so quite it's bliss in our last house it was semi detached and let's just say not the best neighbours in the World that we had to share the walls with they were noisy and screamed a lot shouted at the kids who screamed and cryed a lot and played music.  To wake up here we're woken up if we here it to the sound of someones Cockeral which is bliss we've both slept better since we've moved.  All we need now is for Paul to get a job so if anyone knows of anything please let me know.

Hopefully I should be back blogging asap as soon as I've started unpacking the craft room.

Hope your all okay.

Hugs
