Back Again!

Good morning!!! 

Lordy me yet again its been a while since I've blogged - I really shouldn't make promises to return quickly because it would appear I just can't keep them!   Luckily I have a few facebook girlfriends who keep tally on how many days I'm absent and give me a shove when its getting a bit too long! lol

No, seriously, since I last blogged I was quite sick with a nasty case of the flu which saw me laid up for about 10 days and THEN we got our new little furbaby Teddy who has more then kept me on my toes!  It really is like going back to having a toddler in the house with this little boy I tell ya! lol  I'll show you a few pics of him in a sec, but for now I wanted to show you the card I made just now!

My good friend Laurie has a gorgeous cardmaking style that I admire greatly.  I have many of her cards saved on my computer to CASE cause I just love em', and so I decided to do this one today! 

Mine is somewhat different to Laurie's as she's stamped flowers where I've used die cuts and punched flowers, and I also added a strip of grass just below my little fence just to give it a bit of character!  I was really happy with it and it felt good to stamp again!


Now onto my little Teddy!  We've had him over a week now and he is absolutely beautiful!  He has the best nature (not at all like a normal cat) and follows me around the house like a puppy.  If he can't see me, he cries until I call him and then he comes barrelling down to where ever I am!  He's settled in really well and makes us laugh with his antics each and every day!

This is Teddy enjoying a bit of facebooking with Maddison and Brock! lol


Look at his beautiful face!!!


This is when I get most of my jobs done........when he's fast asleep! lol  I know the peace and quiet is only short lived, cause when he's all napped out........it's on like Donkey Kong and he's into everything again! lol


Well thats it for me today!  Thanks for stopping by!

Happy 13th AND Our New Baby!!

I know, I know............long time see huh!  Dunno whats wrong with me here, but in all honesty I just couldn't be bothered crafting since I last posted.............so I just didn't!  lol

Maddy is going to a friends birthday party on the weekend and she asked me to make her a card.  Actually, she asked me weeks ago to do it, but I put it in the too hard basket for another day and then I realised Saturday was almost on my doorstep (which is the day of the party) so I promptly whipped something up!  I did have strict instructions to not make it too girly, so this is what I came up with!


I was really happy with how it turned out and today I plan on making a matching tag to hang from her gift!

On a more exciting note, I want to show you our new baby which we'll be getting in just a few weeks time!


This is 'Teddy' and he's a purebred Ragdoll Kitten!  I've wanted one forever and a day and I found a breeder here in Mackay who happened to have one Seal Point boy in her newest litter!  He is just the sweetest little thing........ so full of cheekiness as kittens always are! 

We're actually going out to visit him today which is really exciting and then it'll only be 2 weeks till I can bring him home!  Can't wait!

Hope you have a super day and I'll try not to make it too long between posts next time! lol
