just a little catch up

hiya all...been very neglectful again on my blog but at same time trying to piece together my life again, and thursday news was not at all good and at present miscarrying my so wanted baby. I'm in alot of pain but so trying to carry on so adam still gets my love and attention, just not sure yet when this is going to hit me...i know it will at some point, i'm just praying that my body does this in the right way cos if not i'm back in on monday for a D&C. So if i go quiet you know why...but i'm sure my bestest bud Jo (JO's jewels) will keep you updated.
Thanks all for your heartelt messages really means so much to know you are out there thinking about me I've not known you all that long but so kind to me. luv you all xxx

New Job and Good Luck cards


hiya all firstly thanks all for such lovely words from my last posting really means so much to me that i have such kind loving cyber friends xx...anyway before i bubble anymore onto some cards, my bestest buddy(jo's Jewels) asked me to make a card for her hubby who is starting his new job tomorrow, so instead of making one i made two she can choose one and i can give one as well.
These cards also tie in with this weeks challenge on Allsorts is to make a no stamped image card so these both fall into this perfectly.
the backing paper are from dovecraft masculine collection, the embellishments are from this months lets make cards mag.

update on me...not good news.

Well finally after being in hossie again yesterday i got the news i was dreading. To be all straight with you all I am pregnant but at very early stages and sadly this pregnancy isn't viable as the cell division isn't happening and no normal growth for this stage of pregnancy. So now i have been facing 48hr bloods to see if my blood levels were doubling and they are not so unless a miracle happens, next thursday shall be facing a final scan and then to decide whether they give me an injection to dissolve the pregnancy or i book in for a D&C. At mo can't decide which option is best for me and after loosing my son George at 19 weeks gestation and then after an ectopic pregnancy I'm obviously thinking WHY????
I shall get through this somehow and I have still got my boy Adam to be thankfull for.
I am about girls card making is what i need to concentrate on in the next few days as well as my 2nd lot of training to do too.
thanks for reading and love you all xxxx

charisma cardz challenge 17...thankyou's


hiya all thought i would give this challenge a go as we always need good stock of thankyou cards...well i've daisy from sugar nellie as my stamp cand coloured her in using H20's and some purple stickles to highlight the flowers in her hair. I've then used some mulberry paper for a change to back her onto. then i have used pm purple border sheets and then a charm, ribbon and gems from stash.

P.S very odd going on's with my camera...dark shadow has appeared and i can;t get rid of it at all very frustrating indeed.
