Bits and bobs...

My Collosal Paper playings...

Been busy again...

Well I went to do Jo`s comp and the only stamp I had that was anywhere near cute was butterflies or three little snowmen lol. Bit early for a christmassy one so upto yet Ive not started the card...but I will. I treat myself to a Collosal pack of paper, there lovely and well worth the 15 quid, I had hours of fun last night with them and made some lovely cards, even if I do say so myself lol.

Ive been tagged....

Thanks sis lol, here goes....
WHAT WAS I DOING 10 YEARS AGO...I was working nights at a residential care home as a Nursing Assistant and then had to pack up due to getting rid of the OH, long story lol.
ON MY TO DO LIST FOR TODAY...Housework, cleaning out the chickens, washing, and then to sit and have a bash at Jo`s challenge for the night.
SNACKS I ENJOY...I dont have snacks as a rule but when Im in the mood, chocolate or oranges.
THINGS I WOULD DO IF I WAS A BILLIONAIRE...split it 9 ways..me, my three kids, mum and dad, my sis and her hubby and my two nieces and nephew, cant take it with you so may as well let them have it while Im here to see the pleasure it would bring them all lol.
THREE OF MY BAD HABITS...ermmm, just 3 ???...Ive got to say swearing though I do try and not do it, impulse buying, smoking.
FIVE PLACES I HAVE LIVED...Chesterfield-Hollingwood (where I was born in my Granmas house). Middlecroft, both as a kid and then later as an adult with my 3. Staveley until I got my first house. Tenby with my Dad for a while, and where I am now just out of Staveley.
FIVE JOBS I HAVE HAD...Shopwork at the local co-op just after I left school, hated that. A sewing factory making Army/Navy/Police uniforms, loved that. Cleaning at a bingo hall, liked that. Sewing factory making sportwear, really didnt like that and then finally Nursing assistant at a care home, loved that.
FIVE PEOPLE I AM TAGGING...Now that Im stuck on cos I dont know five people with a blog lol.

My new cards....

See what can be done with the right tools lol. My sis donated some new toys to my card making collection so Ive been a messing. Im going to have to get a shed or get one of the kids to sleep in the bath to make room for all my bits soon....hmmm the bath idea sounds sooo much better, Im thinking shed..spiders..me running round like a headless chicken. Me and spiders dont get on in any way shape or form, the only good one is a squished one, sorry to the spider lovers out there. Im alright with anything with between two and four legs, anything else is just nasty lol. So Im reckoning that if one of the kids moves into the bath, I get a craft room.

OOh Ive been a busy bee...

Another day done....

and what a day its been. Got up this morning with a stinking migraine grrr, got rid of that and thought Id have a nice chilled out day....yeh right lol. The dogs have been a pain today, the cats have been scrapping all day, my toilet broke and to top it all my lad did a runner from school and came home at half 11 this morning...BANG went my relaxing day. Still, managed to find a bit of spare time to make another couple of cards, well...you have to dont you lol.

New link....

I`ve added a new link to my favourite craft site, the gallery there is great and its got some brilliant tips and projects etc. Im Julie458 if you want to go and have a peek.

Blimey....

Ive had fun with this one lol. I think its got to be one of my favourites though, and not a single cut on any fingers despite being sat for 4 and a half hours with a craft knife and a ruler, thats good for me, I can cut myself on a spoon lol.

My cards...

Well Ive been busy lol. Ive had a bit of time to kill so I got creative, Im still learning but I dont reckon these cards are to bad. Plus while Im fiddling about with these Im staying out of trouble, hope you like them, theyre my mini works of art, Im biased though lol.
