* Diamonds are Forever *

Afternoon all

Hope you are being spoilt on your special day or spoiling someone you love, i had a beautiful basket of flowers delivered and was taken out for a smashing meal last night as it was also my 39th wedding anniversary.

This weeks challenge over on Sunday Stampers is Diamonds and before i knew what the challenge was i had just made a card using diamonds so that was an easy one :0).

I stamped my Gruffies stamp using black stazon, coloured in with water pencils and added the diamonds.

* Bookmarks *

Hi everyone

Well i think my mojo may have returned for a little whiles anyway, as i managed to make 2 bookmarks for a swap i am involved in, the picture on the left is the fronts and these i have made by covering with paper and then stamping the sentiment onto vellum and attaching with eyelets.

The picture below is the backs of the bookmarks where i smudged with distress inks and stamped the flower stamp on them and added ribbons, hope this is the return for me making other things as i know i have a lot of catching up to do, hope everyone is keeping well.

* Still Here *

Hi everyone

Just to let you know i'm still about, but my mojo has definatley emigrated i'm even thinking of selling all my craft stash if it don't return soon.

A friend of mine Hilda has given me this lovely award although i'm not much of a friend at the moment but i thank her very much for thinking of me


I now have the job of finding only 5 friends to pass this award onto, i really think anyone who visits my blog should be awarded with this award so if you want you may take this award as a thank you from me, but i have passed this award onto.

Lydia, Lesley, Fifi, Wendy, Joy.
