Good morning....After a few days of rain It looks like a dry and maybe sunny day....
Things here are moving along if a bit slowly and I had the survey done Monday on the bungalow...A few boxes have been packed and three more bags to the charity shop to drop off.....

I saw a lovely card the other day on pinterest....and changed it to the dies I had in my stash....I send out a few cards to my friends to keep in touch and thought this design would make a lovey little card....and  fits the bill just right....

5x5 card White card Papermill and Bazzell....which told the chalk a lot easier...cut with a Spellbinders borders.....the daisy is from Die-namics....which i cut in half and chalked....leaves and stalk Memory Box....rest of card from stash and the bit box....sentiment Clearly besotted....I made 12 cards in all.....some with other sentiments on....some I post to a friend to use as a gift....

Not doing Anything.....

Well my web buddie's this card said it all....not....The bungalow I put an offer on which was accepted is now off the market....The batty old lady who lives there wants to stay....and would not let the guy in to do the survey.....and I found out her daughter works for the estate agents and it had been on the market twice before.....
But sometimes fate has away of looking after you and the bungalow I fell in love with which was sold the day before I sold my house came back for sale as the chain got broken....so I hot footed over to Kesgrave and put in a offer which was accepted the same day.....I have never brought a place so quick...finger and toes crossed for me....


I made today's card for a very lovely friend of mine.....Stamped image Art Impressions as is the sentiment....coloured with Promarkers and cut out....Die-namics dies.....red card Papermill....papers First Edition....
Sorry Ive been hit and miss with my comments but will hop over the week-end....Thank you as always for yours....Joolsx

Two very quick cards....

Hello to my buddies and visitor's ....
Well...Looking for a new home is going ok....I need a bungalow...not a lot about and the prices are very silly here in Suffolk....after seeing 15...yes 15 ...which is good for me I looked at 29 before I brought my house I'm in....I think I have found a doer upper....Its not been touched since the 70s....by a small newish kitchen....I have put a offer in yesterday so I'm waiting for the estate agent to ring me back....

On to today's cards and I needed to make a few quick cards just to keep in touch with friends....I found the images and the papers in a old Creative Cardmaking Magazine.....when I was sorting out my craft room to start to pack up for the move.....I have cut them out and used a Spellbinders die on the images....card from  the bit box.....and a few gems.....
