Busy Busy - lots of weddings......a wee catch up

I seem to be really busy with Wedding cards at the moment.

This first one uses my Wedding Horseshoe image.

I really love some of the Prima Papers

and that fabulous ribbon.

I adore this birdcage image by 

Meljen's Designs

New Home card for Haylie using my

swirly street image.

Great fun acrylic key coloured with alcohol inks

and tied into gorgeous velvet ribbon.

Another Wedding card using my Heart Flourish image

and again Prima Papers.

Caleb was back at Yorkhill yesterday. 

The good news is there is no nerve damage from his spine

although his body is acting as if there is a problem with the nerve supply.

They are trying some new medication that hopefully

overtime will increase the sensation he has.

School photo's.....how they grow!

It makes me laugh that I took Hope to my friends house to

get her hair into a french pleat on the morning of her school photo!

A really good scratch of the head a wee while later

and this is what you get - It's very her!

I am so pleased they have captured Caleb so well

and Jacob, well he's going through a trying to look cool

at the age of 10 look so I am really pleased he at least tried to

smile here! lol

I am a very proud Mum 

On our holidays....and some felted flowers!

We have just got back from visiting Reuben's

Dad and Step-mum in Somerset.

We had a day out at Lyme Regis above

perfect weather and lovely and quiet as it wasn't

holiday time there this week.

The kids had a great time at the pottery.

Reuben's dad is a potter in a lovely village

called Queen Camel

If you fancy a wee look- I've put a link here.

I'm not good at taking a complete break from my routine

so smuggled away some hand dyed fibres

and my needle felting bits to make some 

embellishments while I was away.

Reuben's dad and Jennie with the kids

down the garden.

We also discovered before the holiday that Caleb has another

nerve related problem this time with his eyes.

I think he chose well!

Busy, busy.....

Have been really busy with card orders recently

which is great, it's helping alot

with having an empty house during the day now

all the kids are at school!

Using my doodle

Swirly bird and flowers

The gorgeous Mo Manning image - I love!

Using my

Art Nouveau Sleeping Princess doodle

My minds eye papers and some lovely resin flowers.

I do so still love a shaped easel.

Ice Cream Sundae reminds me of

times spent in Nardini's in Largs

It's a hard life!

More felting......

Hi ho Hi ho it's off to felt we go!

I am now having a wee textile class once a week 

and this week we were making the bases for some

Felted cushions!

Merino, Hand dyed silk and BFL

I love this Kelp like effect with warm gold shades.

This is just so soft a Merino  and hand dyed silk mix.

Looks quite bulky but in fact is very light weight.

Peacock or what!

Merino, Hand dyed silk and hand dyed Alpaca

has to be my favourite colour combo!

Ooooo I do like a little bit of felting!

More fun felt scarves....the composition a better mix now!

Hand dyed Bluefaced Leicester, Merino, silk and alpaca.

I love the BFL locks then needle felted as a fringe.

This one was for my Mum's birthday yesterday!

but thought I'd add in some of my recent cards.

This Wedding card uses my

Art Nouveau Vases doodle.
