Today's blog is dedicated to my dad, Ken, he tries really hard, mum hasn't been that gr8 lately as I told you yesterday and father cops for the lot! on top of that Grandma (his mum) isn't doing too gr8, she's still in hospital after breaking her femur the other week. Poor dad he's not having much luck with the ladies in his life. Good job he's got me and my sister. Tee Hee. Oh and don't 4get Gemma, Amy, Nats and Sarah (the grandaughters) come to think of it he's in danger of having too many ladies in his life... poor dad.





And another postcard, I love this one, it came today, its from Sue Singer in California and is part of the art deco swap I did, remember I posted my ladies the other day? Anyway I like this one.

Today I have introduced my mum Syl to the world of blogging. I have set my blog as one of her favourites and showed her around. Then jigger me if she didn't complain that I hadn't put her photo on. So mother, stick this in your pipe and smoke it!!!
Actually I'm teasing I love this pic and I'm proud to show off my mum to the world.

Now then, who will be next...?

Today's blog is dedicated to my mum Sylvia as shes not in gr8 form at the moment. So mum if you've managed to get on this site - I love you x


Cooking on gas today!
These two cards are part of a postcard swap with the theme 'monochromatic' that means you can only use the same colours but different values of it. As you can see I used blue. The picture or pattern was up to us.
This one is called 'night beams'
and this one is called 'moon boat'.
I still haven't managed to get any nearer with my college work (term starts this weekend! oops) but my excuse is having the little fella to live with us for a while. Going back to having a baby in the house was/is a bit of a shock.
Well as they say... 'that's all folks'

In my excitement I almost 4got to add this creation by Joan Levin from Maryland USA, its called 'Lava Flow' and actually up close does resemble a lava flow its quite clever really.

My latest postcard has arrived from Sally Burke in Illinois, its the final one from the mermaid theme.

These are my finished Art Deco postcards, in the absence of any suggestions I did glitter and a border. I'm feeling a bit peculiar at the moment because these cards are scarily sophisticated compared to my usual offerings. Oh well I'll have to double my attempts to return to humour or risque productions in the future. LOL.

Oh and by the way for any of you who keep fish tanks on facebook (rachel) I cleaned my tank flushed my dead fish and bought some more (but they were due to die at 2am this morning) then out of curiosity logged onto your aquarium for a nosey... and the algae was unbelievable ooooo people in glass tanks... so I cleaned your mess, and abigails and gemma's. Am I now 4given for my attack of sophistication? xxxx
