Category: Welcome to my world.

I can’t believe that I’ve missed at least 2 Wednesdays! I was determined not to let the end of the week arrive unannounced again so I’ve started writing this on Monday night. I haven’t done much in the way of crafting over the last couple of weeks, but this week my desk is my dining […]

I’m really struggling to know which day is which. Not a lot on my desk at the moment. I’ve been doing some die cutting using up retired SU DSP. The sweetie jars are from How Sweet It Is DSP which goes with the Sweetest Thing stamps and dies. I used Wink of Stella on the […]

Well, remember the wedding pressie I showed you last week? The wedding reception had already been cancelled as the venue had closed and then the Register Office decided that they were going to close for the foreseeable future. Quelle horreur! Ian has waited a long time to find the woman of his dreams so he […]

Well, what happened to last week? I must have blinked! We had our 2nd session of Tea & Toast (and a listening ear) last Wednesday and had 7 people come in off the street, which was great. Unfortunately, due to the current ‘human malware’ situation, we’ve taken the decision to close the church to all […]

I’m typing this up on Tuesday as I shall be busy in the morning. My desk shows my Badge-It machine and some badges I’ve made for tomorrow. Tomorrow, our church is starting up ‘Tea & Toast (and a listening ear)’. We will be open for people to come in and have a cuppa in a […]

I’ve made a few cards like the one in the picture and have used various sentiments: birthday, get well, thank you, congratulations (in Welsh & English). I have used the flower stamp from the Thoughtful Blooms set from Stampin’ Up! This is one of the items that you can earn for free in the Sale-a-Bration […]

Well, this sparked some interest last week! I mentioned that I make cards using Scrabble tiles and quite a few of you wanted to see one; so here it is! I’ve not actually stuck this down yet as I get all the church members and regulars to sign the card first and then fix the […]

I wasn’t sure I’d be able to participate today; whenever I tried to get into my website I got an error message. I don’t know what was wrong, but it seems OK now. Not very exciting stuff on my desk today, just these: I make some cards using Scrabble letters and I realised I was […]

Love is in the air this week. With Valentine’s Day being next week I thought I’d make a card for Kevin. And it was a good excuse to use some of my new Stampin’ Up! stash. I started by making the hanging hearts. I cut Real Red card and folded it then used the punches […]

Good grief! Where does the time go? Kevin had his birthday last Friday so we’re both the same age now. I got him a Haynes Manual for Thunderbird 2! (We’re both as mad as a bag of spanners!) We went over the border to England (Chester) on Saturday to see Peter Pan Goes Wrong. It […]
