Roses

Hi it hasn't been a month since I last blogged so I will surprise everyone and show you how I have been wasting time, like I had nothing to do and all day to do it in. The 1st pic is a rose made from satin ribbon, it would have turned out better if I had double sided satin ribbon, but I am happy with the result anyway, the 3rd one is made with double sided ribbon, but I won't go into production with those because they are too fiddly & time consuming, as you can see by the rough thumbnail that is holding the paper up to the window for the pic, the flower is very small. The 2nd pic is flowers made with cardstock, from a tutorial Vic & I found somewhere on the net, once you get the hang of it they don't take long at all.







Better sign off now and go put put a stew on, it's wet and miserable out there, good night for it, I like those one pot dinners saves on the washing up,Luv to all til next time :)

Here I am after 4 weeks & I don't have much to show for all that time. Vic you said you wanted to see some cards, well all I have managed to do is 2 new ones & my ATC's for June F&F swap, I want to thank you girls for getting me hooked, had to boot up first thing this morning & redo an important document that I attached to an email yesterday, as they couldn't open it for some reason. Of course I can't sit at the computer, without checking on what you girls have been doing on your blogs, and I have been blog hopping for 2 hrs, and not doing my my housework, someone is sure to come visiting and I will be so embarrassed, because the floors need cleaning, the beds not made, I'll just have to point to the little sign Jen sent me,"I cleaned my house last week sorry you missed it", she knows me so well, eh!

Not much to write about as I lead such a dull life & don't go anywhere much. I went out yesterday to the CWA International Day, Sue I got a couple of pic's of your Mum dressed up as an Egyptian but I wont embarrass her by posting them. I was a wuss & refused to dress up, someone might look at me. I told them I might have to go in a hurry if my phone went, so I put it on vibrate & put it in my pocket so it's next to my skin & I'd feel it, LOL pulled it out to tell someone the time & there was a missed call, the one that I had been waiting on, maybe I am dead from the waist down,


a simple card


and another


my ATC, simple, a clipart picture, seahorse cut outs from Vic & a bit of bling
