Your Never Gonna Belive This....

Well I was sat at my laptop earlier having just posted, gets a phone call from KT's school (primary) saying can I pick her up straight away because they are evacuating the school .....One case of swine flu has been diagnosed a girl in year 2 thankfully KT is in year 6 so little if any contact has happened....but my BIG problem with this is if they had closed Danni's school down the other week maybe this situation could have been avoided....

Anyways theres my rant over, gonna go and play Mario Cart on the Wii with one very happy little bunny lol

hugs


Well at the moment sorting my laptop out is taking over my life...lol I am starting to see light at the end of the tunnel....I started with 22000 different images, backingpapers that sorta thing, and now I'm down to 15000, deleted so so so much rubbish that I will never ever use...
And everything is in its own little named folder, so I can find things a a click of me mouse....

And ladies I asked a question a few months ago, about painting on printed out images, ya know the black and white outlined ones...well my darling hubby decided to do some investigating, cus I was getting so frustrated, having all these images and not being able to use them....Well he is a star, he bought me a black and white laser printer and guess wot.....It doesn't run I have only had a quick play but will post some cards in the next few days of the results....In my opinion its the same as painting a proper stamped image...no bleeding no nothing, its perfect..

Yes I know I shouldn't use my blog for this purpose but I just wanted to say a big thank you to my darling hubby for my laptop and printer he is da bomb!!!

Anyways sorry about all the dribble here's two cards I made a few weeks ago ...yes I am gonna actually make a card today...lol

Well this week has simply flown by....I haven't made one card this week, I haven't even sat at my craft table since Sunday and that was only to tidy it up...lol

Nige my darling hubby bought me a laptop last Saturday (as some of you know, sometimes I find it really painfull to sit at the computer), so since Monday I have been sorting out my card making files...lol I started on Monday with 22000 files and upto today I have sorted through about two thirds and deleated about 8000 of them.....still got loads to do....

Then last night while I was blog hoppin I bought some digi stamped image thingys off Dotty's world so have decided to have a play....

Anyway heres a card a made a few weeks ago to say thank you to a friend....

Thank you to my friends

Just a quicky about Danni....well the school didn't shut, there were protests and the local paper tried to get them to close but they wouldn't....we heard that on Monday the teacher who had 'swine flu' was back at school....I foned up my doc and she said the school was safe now...not sure how really cus they hadn't had any extra cleaning done....so Danni is now back at school and everything seems to be ok....thankfully...

I just wanted to say a big THANK YOU for all you support over the last week ...emails, phone calls, text messages and for just being there, huge hugs xxx







Well this card was made for a very special person...my bestest bud Louise http://the-lou-natic-asylum.blogspot.com/ pop over cus shes got some fab cards and always good for a giggle....This card took me blooming ages, the cutting out around the edge alone took 5 hours...Lou has told me she is gonna frame it...the little darling lol...The thing is if I had made that card for a none crafter they just wouldn't of appreciated it, so it makes it worth while when its appreciated...loves ya babe!!

My efforts from last night

Hello everyone quick update on the oinking....Danni is still off school and shes not going bak for a while as we found out last night that 3 other people have it and the teacher we thought had it in Danni's year (we thought it was her head of year so she doesn't have much to do with him) but we have found out its her P.E. teacher so she spends 7 hours a week with him and 2 hours after school as well, so needless to say I'm in a bit of a tizzzzzzzzzzzz

And the blurry school is still open....wots that all about!!!

Anyway my friend Ammara came round last night and we did a couple of hours crafting (always better when you've got a friend). Ammara had been looking through my mags the other day when she came round, and decided she wanted to have ago at this wardrobe, silly me I says yeah sure no probs I'll download the template from http://www.papercraftinspirationsmagazine.co.uk/ and sort out card and stuff....so she came round last night...lololol there were no instructions lol so we just winged it hope you like it...had to use eyelets cus I ain't got no beads lol but I think it came out ok in the end....
