Thinking of you...

Hello...I can not believe it's Friday again.......
Two lots of news to tell you ...
Went to the doctors about my hip/knee pain which is getting  me down...big time...saw a gorgeous doctor...not good when you are a old  lady!! but I can dream...and had to take off my trousers...lol....Anyway he a bone doctor at the hospital in Ipswich....so it looks like I got the right man for the job ....and I got to have a new knee...which I said I would think about it...

The 2nd news is I still waiting to move and I thinking about pulling out of the house in Shoeburyness and renting for 6 mths...It will mean moving twice...which will be a pain....but hopefully I get some where I like...and be near to Keith and the owls...and will be a lot easier journey  to see my brother in London...

Right on to the card....All the card from Hobby House...Spellbinders dies...flowers Die-namics and Sue Wilson... Sizzix flourish..and some pearls...

Thank you for lending a ear on my update and the time to leave me a comment... Keith will be here over the weekend with baby bird...so I will take some more photos and you can see how she/ he is doing...Joolsx

Goddess Bon Bons


Hello...Hope you have been enjoying the warm sunny weather...I've been in the garden over the week-end...cutting and having a tidy up...

Today's card is for Monica....we have been friends for over 50 years....I had very dark curly hair (now going grey!) and Monica had very straight hair and still has... when we have been away together she (still) takes her rollers with her....it has always been a standing joke with us....







On to the card...the digi image is by Rich St Dennis called Goddess Bob Bons....which I coloured with Promarkers....and chalked the background with a mask....and used oval dies all from Tonic...

Thank you for all your lovely comments Joolsx
