Holidays

I haven't been on here for a while, but have a good reason.  My husband and I are finally going on our holiday.  We have scaled it back but we are going.  This is the holiday we had to cancel earlier in the year because of my health, but we are taking the plunge now and I am so excited.  I have been busy finishing off card orders and getting things organised and we leave in a few days.  The house sitter is all organised and everything seems to be running smooth for our departure.  I have a booked motels and resorts and have a huge list of things to see and do.  So for now my blog will be a little quiet but I will return and will share some awesome pics I intend to take.  Have fun everyone and take care, Wendy

Baby Card

My Niece emailed yesterday and asked if I would make a baby boy card for her to give to a friend that just had  baby.  What's an Aunt to do right, but get right to making it hehehe. 

Had trouble with this one, didn't want to do the Giraffe or Bear again, but didn't like how anything else was turning out, so this is what I ended up with.  I like the tiny feet and the pacifier.

Have a good day everyone,  Wendy

Custom order

Posted off some more cards for custom orders today.  The bad thing was I waited till today to take pics and we had such a bad overcast day that the pics are not great, plus I was a little unwell and they are a bit shaky.  But wanted to publish anyway as I wanted a record of some of these on my blog.   Didnt look at the pics till they were posted :-(.  Oh well. My own fault for leaving it to the last minute, but we get like that sometimes, right?

I really like the pink and the green birthday cards with the flowers. I packaged them both in their own little box that they fit so nicely in so think that the two ladies that get them will really like them.






yucky blurry pic, was cute IRL

even yuckier blurry print.  Like this one IRL cuase I used my new stamps, and cut out the birds and then popped the pop dots so they stood off the cage (dam blurry print makes me sad ). 

This one is for the ladies husband, she wants to give him a  rally car ride as a present so thought using the really old cars was funny, hope they both do as well.

Pumpkin Festival

Have finished up all my current card orders last night an just waiting till tomorrow to have the time to take pics and post off.

So for today, my husband and I went on a road trip to a small country town to a pumpkin festival.  Now for the ladies from the US and Canada reading along, this was nothing like the pumpkin patches that you guys have unfortunately, but was fun. We had scarecrows, old vintage cars, pumpkin contests, wheel barrow races, music, food, more food and more food.  Had a great time, took my newish SLR for a whirl, got it at Christmas and this is really the first time I have been well enough to go anywhere and have the opportunity to use it,  Still have the training wheels on but liked some of today's more basic pics.  Am going to share a couple as everyone likes a post with pics, right?.  Have a great day.
