book, button hole, bling & babies

I am sorry for all the pictures,
but I seem to be a better blogger
if I blog every few days,
so that means a few cards at once.

Thank you for all my get well wishes,
I am almost there.
The tail end of a summer cold seems to linger...

You know I was talking to some
of the girls at work about the ribbons
that you get inside tops....

well I am now receiving bags of ribbons
in the internal mail at work!
and at tea time,
and when staff come into the department!
It is very sweet of everyone!

If i was to show whats on my work space today...
it would be these....

I made this card for one lady who
gave me heaps of ribbons.
The wee bloom is a brooch
that comes off so you can wear it!
It is made with two bits of ribbon she
gave me this week.

I am entering it in My time to craft
who want a butterfly on the card.
Papertake weekly want in the garden

This ribbon is also from the above stash!

The big text stamp is penny black,
the sentiment is hobby art.
and the lassie is greeting farm,
which means I can enter the card
on Anyone for Anya ,
who want the colour combo
pink, black and white.
I have decoupaged the brolly,
which is not normally something
I do, but I liked it.

The blue ribbon is from above collection.
The green and silver is craft ribbons.
I am entering this in Color Throwdown
but I am not happy about how dark the green
and taupe colour turned out.

I found this a real challenge to colour,
after deciding to make it the one for
one stop craft challenge
who want monochromatic.

This one is for a few other challenges too.
Creative Inspiration want sport related cards.
The boy is from Di's digital downloads.

Passion for promarkers want animals.
well there is a cute wee doggy there.

This card I am not keen on at all.
It was an order for a lady at work,
for her elderly MIL to give to a friend who
was retiring from teaching.

And lastly......
Cause if I put the photos
of my two furry babies at the top
of the post, no one reads below it !

My hubby was on night shift last night,
he came upstairs with both girls
to speak to me in the spare room....
and a short while later I
found all three fast asleep!!

But this is how they nomally sleep!

Hope you are well
much love Teen xxx
