My Friend Sharon

This would have been my entry for the monthly challenge over on UKS if I had managed to upload it on time, the challenge was to celebrate friends. I have never met Sharon as she lives in Michigan and I live in Scotland...but through our team and online chats I have come to think of her as a very special friend.

Spring is in the Air

How gorgeous are these snowdrops. I would love to say they are mine but sadly not...but hopefully by this time next year these little beauties will be growing in my garden. I was very lucky this week to be given some snowdrops to plant....I can honestly say that I love these little flowers, no matter how bad the weather, how rough the conditions...every year these little beauties pop their heads up and take on the world. So delicate but so tough.

Shutter Card

There is a craft group that meets once a month at our church halls and for some reason whenever I say I am going along, they ask if I could show them a technique or a style of card they have never done before. Well the group met this morning and I decided I would show them how to make a Tri fold shutter card, this is not my usual style of card...I know they can be made very decorative with patterned papers etc, but I decided to keep mine clean and simple. I got no crafting of my own done, except the card as I was busy showing them how to fold the cards...it was a good laugh watching everyone trying to figure it out. But that means I am now home trying to sort out the craft make and takes for tomorrow nights Womens Fellowship meeting...oh well better get on.

An Angel watched over me today

I had an angel watching over me today. Since been given the all clear for breast cancer last September, I have had no problems. However a few days ago I discovered a lump, I hoped it would go away on its own...wishful thinking...so yesterday I bit the bullet and phoned the hospital, my fabulous surgeon agreed to see me today...and after a lot of poking and prodding..he was able to determine it was not a tumor...but a problem with scar tissue...I floated out of the hospital....maybe one of these days I will stop being scared of my own body...please my friends be breast aware...It could save your life x

Young Love

This is a LO for this weeks challenge over on UK scrappers, the criteria was use a heart somewhere on your LO, use red and use a song title or song lyrics containing the word LOVE. This a picture of me and my childhood friend Janey (I wish I could track her down) I was 12 yrs old at the time and in love with Donny Osmond....still love Donny:)
