You were warned, baby picture overload

I did warn you all I would be putting some baby photos on here. So here goes, the first one is of the special lady who's day it was, she was a bit fed up in this photo and is teething as well but was as good as gold all day.


 Next we have the proud parents with her in church.


The Vicar trying to wet her!


Next is a photo of my boys. I always like to take one when they get together as they don't get together that often with living all over the world.


And the last, at the end of the day playing on granny's knee.


Hope I didn't bore you too much.

Thanks for reading,

WOYWW 108

Wednesday again and for a change I am not on a aeroplane! my desk for the last two Wednesdays has been the drop down table from the seat in front, not that I did anything other than read in my very small space. I know I am big but the room they give you on some airlines is just ridiculous.

Anyway you are not here to listen to me moaning you have come to see the desk, I hope! So here it is in all its glory.


As you can see I am in the middle of about 3 projects, none of which are near completion. The tray with the compartments has been on my table for a long time now and I am determined to get it finished soon. The black and white box I want to get done as soon as pos as I am putting that in for the Try it on Tuesday challenge which this week is alter a box. The frame with the dress pattern paper on it is something I started last night . Now I have got rid of my cold (gave it to the OH) I am rearing to get on with things, not sure how long that will last though.lol

If you are not sure why I am showing you all this and waffling on like this just go and have a look at our leaders blog HERE but I must warn you Julia is not there this week and Lunch Lady is standing in for her, and a good job she is doing to.

Make My Monday card

This week we are using a sketch, still with the Flower theme.


 So here is my interpretation of this sketch:


To start with I turned it around so the main part went lengthways, I then used some yellow and green card from Stamping Up that I had been given a while ago, I stamped on the yellow with a stamp from The Artistic Stamper. The green I put through my Big Shot with a Cuttlebug flower embossing folder. These I cut to size and fixed on to the main card. The main embellishment on the front is a flower and some petals from Prima. The sentiment is a stamp from a set by Personal Impressions and the dots I did myself.

Why not go over to Make My Monday and see what the rest of the team has done? We would also love to see what you make of this sketch. You have until the end of the week to join in with us.

I'm back in Cyprus

Totally k.......d but glad to be here. We were going to get our head down at Gatwick overnight but that was not to be as there are tearing the place apart in the name of improvement!
I will be boring you all with family shots over the next few days so you have been warned. I would just like to say a quick thank you to both Julia and shopkeeper girl for being so nice and keeping me topped up with tea. I am so sorry I wont be seeing you again for quite a while I had a great time.

This week over on Make My Monday

The challenge is Tags still with the flower theme that is running to the end of this month. So this is my card.


I used one of my favourite Paper Artsy stamps onto a tag that I mounted onto black card along with card that I had put through the Big Shot and embellished with black stones, ribbon and a word tile. I am still away so this has been scheduled, so please go and have a look at the the other teams cards over on Make My Monday and have a go yourself.
