I can't believe how long it has been since my last post but I haven't been doing much craftwise. Silly bugs and illnesses have stopped me in my tracks and I need to give myself a kickstart. I think I shall start by scrapbooking these lovely pictures of 3 of my grandchildren, Eilidh 6, Luke 5 and Finlay who is almost 15 months.

For the Birthday Boy




I have neglected my blog lately. I've just been extremely tired and not feeling too great but I must get a move on with birthday cards and promised ATCs.

These are some of the cards made for my son's birthday tomorrow. Two are from sisters and the other is from 2 nephews and a niece. The card Bailey Boy is a Sharon Duncan download(thanks Sharon), the rock-climbing card is made using Kanban images and the motorcycle card is made using Big decoupage. I haven't made mine yet but I'm thinking of using images from Joanna Sheen's American Frontier cd.

Elegant Lady


This is so easy  to make as the quality of the Kanban materials make such an elegant card.

ATCs from Kathy



My friend Kathy and I met through a craft forum and have been corresponding ever since. She is a very talented and generous lady who introduced me to the art of ATCs. We do exchange them but I must admit she is quicker than I am. Thanks Kathy.

As these are not my work please do not copy them for commercial or any other reason. Thank you.

Vintage pages



These are two scrapbook pages I made showing my Grandmother and Her Mother and Aunt. I know the picture of my Grandmother was taken in 1919 but I am not sure about the other.

Son's birthday card


This card was made from the Sharon Duncan "Country Kids" cd which I love. I have made it for my son's birthday. Both my sons have birthdays just 4 days apart so I might just make another rather than decide which one to give it to. They are both in their 30s so the other cards I make will be golf and rock climbing.

Card for Natalie


I have quite a few birthdays due in August so I thought I'd make a start. This card is for my youngest Granddaughter, Natalie, who will be 3. It seems like only yesterday since she was born and now I have another grandson, Finlay, and 2 great grandchildren, Ella and Matthew.
