silver wedding anniversary

Long time since i last posted, been having a few problems but getting there eventually i think.
A 25th wedding anniversary card i did for an order yesterday.
Hope everyone's well and enjoying the decent weather for a change

Some cross stitching i did whilst at mums on bed rest grr

A few small pictures i did whilst on complete bed rest at my mums to rest my foot whilst still in plaster.

I get my stitches out tomorrow and a new cast put on, am dreading the stitches out but will be ok mums coming with me to hold my hand lol!!!

Thanks for everyones support in my time of my operation, i have my other foot to get done, i just hope the same complications don't happen with my next operation as they did with this one and am hoping i don't have to wait too long for it, can't wait to wear my nice new shoes!!!

Hoping to put the before and after pics on tomorrow so watch out for those, definate change, you can see a complete difference.

Shell's 30th Birthday Card

My Blog Award

I was so surprised to see i have received a blog award from my dear friend Shirley and a big thank you for it.

Nice to see people sharing crafty ideas and looking at other peoples blogs.

Yet again a huge thank you.

Take Care all xxxxx

Finished completely

Well decided to go ahead and finish piglet and make him into the card kit that came with it.

Here he is looking a lot different again now he is completely finished.

Shirley, I don't know how to accept the award, bit of a newbie when it comes to these things as never had one before, any help would be appreciated love.

Thanks for looking xxx

Today's finishings

Well i started piglet card kit on thursday afternoon, never got chance to do any yesterday but just put in the finishing touches just now and is finished ready to be mounted onto the card that came with the kit thanks to Shellie.

Was able to achieve a step today and finally managed to do french knots, i hate those things and used to use seedbeads instead but seen as i have none i had to learn the hard way and after a few attempts i got there in the end so am happy now to say i can finally do french knots, its only taken 10 years lol!!!

Found some mojo at last!!!

Found some much needed mojo today whilst watching the British Superbikes on telly.

Will may add some more later if i get the chance to do some.

Hope everyone is ok.

My Love life is 100% strong for anyone who would like to know!!

Michelle's 30th Invites

My friend's 30th Birthday invites, designed by myself and printed 70 out, another job to be ticked off my to do list, hope she will be happy with them, am sure she will, she requested what she wanted on them i just had to design it.

April order

Two April card orders, took me over 5 hours to complete both of these cards today, i have completely lost my mojo, internet keeps kicking me off too so not very happy.
Got more cards to make for May so watch this space!!

At long last, I have finally finished the backstitching on my Paddington Bear and he will now be added to the framing pile. Have not updated my blog for a few weeks as been busy with family stuff and not had much time to do anything let alone stitch.

I now wonder what kit i will start next, i have been buying a lot of kits the last few weeks and have a huge pile of them now, another one arrived today AOY 'Saluting the Flag', so thats another for my collection.

Thanks for looking and all the support you have all given me since i started back into cross stitch,, i now have the problem of giving up smoking again and hopefully with no muck ups it will last this time!!!
