My New Award...................

Thank you so much to Louise Emma, and Wendy for giving me this award.......
This blog invests and believes the PROXIMITY - nearness in space, time and relationships!These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in prizes or self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers! Deliver this award to eight bloggers who must choose eight more and include this cleverly-written text into the body of their award.

I just have to choose my eight now, and will add my list as soon as I have chosen them, there are so many wonderful Blogs that I visit, this is going to be so hard to decide.

Thank you both once again

Not just a card, but........................

A beautiful candle too............

This card, and candle was made by our very own ' Tracy - s wales' don't you think they are gorgeous?
Tracy emailed me last week with the above picture showing the card and candle she has made for her Mum's Birthday, and I have been dying to show you all, but couldn't as Tracy had entered the card in the Challenge.
I hope Tracy wont mind me showing it, but I just wanted you all to see that my sheets can be used for other things besides cards.
Tracy has shown how beautiful a card, and matching candle can be as a special gift, and I am sure her Mum is going to be so pleased to receive them.
Well done Tracy xxxx

Some New Cards...............................

Some new cards, made from my new PSP sheets, the door card is an A6 size, but I think I will print it out bigger next time I make one, as it seems a little on the small size to me. It does look good though! lol

The second one (another door!) but this time complete with wall, window, lamps, and trees. Again made in PSP by myself, but this time deco'd onto a A5 card, I was really pleased with this one, well it is a bigger size! lol
I shall be putting the above 2 sheets here on my Blog later in the week, if anyone would like them

This one I made for my Son Dave, I never know what to make for any of my Son's (all 4 of them!!) but I decided to use my Craft Robo, and a template I got from the UKS website, some brilliant templates on there, such a lot of very talented Ladies that make them too, I am not sure who made that particular Template, but a big thank you from me.


Thank you all for visiting

Val's Challenge.........the lovely card's entered

Here are the cards entered in Val's Challenge, and I would like to say Congratulations to each, and every one of you, they are all beautiful, you have all certainly done justice to my sheets, and so many different cards! well done everyone.
None of the cards here have numbers or names on, so if you would like to vote for a winner please log on to the imag-e-nation forum where you will be able to PM your Vote to....... Val090





I would like to show you this brilliant picture, also made with one of my sheets.
It was made by Jack who is 5yrs old, on Monday last week he was off school poorly, but he wanted to make a picture too, so his Mum (our very own EmmaH) helped him a little by cutting out the house shape for him, but Jack did the rest.
I think he has done a really wonderful job, and I think it is so good, it deserves to be here with everyones cards.
Well done Jack xxxxxx

Val's Challenge..................................

I was asked by Val, if it would be OK for her to set the Challenge using my sheets as the theme for her Challenge, and of course I gave my permission quiet happily.
The following is the Challenge as set by Val.......................
"
Ok. The new challenge for you all is so easy you'll all have to have a go.

I've been in touch with Joanie and she has kindly given me permission to use her PSP website and her blog for any free papers and topper you would like to use.

So there you are.........
Make a card using ANY of Joanie's sheets and toppers


Joanie's PSP website............... http://www.freewebs.com/goldenglitz/index.htm
There are also free sheets on Joanie's blog.......... http://joaniescorner-joanie.blogspot.com/
Some more of Joanie's toppers and sheets on here.............http://joannamill.piczo.com/closeInterstitial();?cr=1

The card can be any size or shape (but not a bookatrix as I think they have an advantage)
Christmas.......Birthday........Anniversary.........Anything you like

The challenge will run from now until 6pm Friday 14th Nov which gives you all 10 days

So get going ladies, lets see if we can beat 35 cards from the last challenge!"

If you would like to join in with the Challenge, please send your cards by PM to 'Val090' on the imag-e-nation Forum.
I have also offered to show all the card entries on here, so that more people can see what a great bunch of talented ladies we have on our Forum!

I would like to offer a small prize for the winner................don't get too excited!
I have been working on some new 'Fan Sheets' and what I propose is to donate 3 completely new (and unseen by anyone) sheets especially for the Winner, these sheets will not appear anywhere else, and will be the only copies there are!! bet you are all excited now!

I hope to see lots of entries now, so come on Ladies don't be shy, lets show the 'Blog World' what Talent our Forum has!
