A beautiful morning.............

Here near Manchester............washing out at 8.30am, hoovering done and a few jobs... the day belongs to me now!!
I shall be doing some sewing and also making a card for an up-coming birthday. Maybe a walk in the sunshine later if it stays around that long.
Here is a sympathy card I made for my family in Oz.... My d-i-l recently lost her Mum, I used to love to sit and talk with her when I visited.
New embossing folder from Creative expressions.Spellbinder opulent ovals, Our Daily bread verse. Chalked background.MS leaf punch, flowers from stash. Liquid pearls.

I am entering the following challenges;

Hiding in my craft room ------------Embossing

Brown sugar -------------------anything goes

Throwback Thursday ------------use a stamp over a year old

Crafting for all seasons --------------Pastel colours

Crafting from the heart -------------------anything goes

My new header is a beautiful tree out in flower that I saw while walking the dog.
 I suppose he has his uses lol.....he has now gone home again, BUT they tugged at my heart-strings by saying if he could not come again in April for 5 days he would have to go into kennels !!!!With his wonderful temperament how could I refuse? I just need to clear the area of cats now!

Thank you for your visit and hope you have a lovely Sunday

Hugs Tilly x
