Peters Valentine.

Good evening Bloggers, cold enough. I really do not venture out much in this cold it doesn't do any good for my Asthma - which has been good of late.
I made a card for Peter my partner, really its from his dog Possil she's a West highland Terrier and we really love her. I have never had a dog because when I was younger they used to affect my Asthma but having cats it seems my immune system has got used to animals. We got her from an animal shelter in September and she is adorable.
Well here is Peter's card not too elaborate, as you know I just love die cutting and all the dies are from Creating memories in time and they are so reasonable and have lots of discontinued Quickutz dies! http://cmitonlinestore.com/
As you can see its the Westie die and one of the old cherubs with bow. The heart is one of the new ones from Lifestyle crafts  which was formally known as Quickutz,  again I got  the heart from Creating memories as they also carry a lot of new dies too. Teresa the owner is a wonderful lady and so helpful with the posting and always tries to save you money with the postal charges. Teresa also has a blog and so does Lifestyle crafts I have stamped the inside but thats a bit personal to show ha ha.
Hope you all have a wonderful evening. Lots of love. Hugs Jo.xx

Friends 65th

Hi Blogger friends it's me again - don't faint, no post for months and now two days on the trot. I'm off today and done all my chores washing, ironing, cleaning up you know the mundane things in life we women have to do. One of my dear friends was 65 before Christmas and I did manage to take a photo of the card and now can show it. I use mainly Craftwork cards for the base, the backing paper I think was off a sheet of free paper pack from a magazine. Used memory box dies- so easy to Die cut, WOC flowers and Stamp from Nicky and friends by Ladybug crafts coloured in with copics easy little stamp, the 65 made from Quickutz Roxy alphabet. I put tiny little diamanties on the flowers
I am going to make it my new Years resolution - better late than never,  to try and capture my photo's better, I am really rubbish at taking photos to put on my blog. Hope you like it. Have a lovely evening. Big Hugs and love JO.xxx
