What a lovely thing to see!!

Received two of these rewards today, from Sharon and Maxine, so I am going to combine the two, thanks very much ladies. I will have a think about who I would like to pass this on to and let you know in a couple of days. (wow I am so chuffed!)

And the meaning of 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.

Sharon Has Tagged Me!

Thanks to the lovely Sharon for tagging me. I have to share 7 random or weird facts about myself, and nominate 7 other blogs to tag.

Here goes then;

1) I lived in Australia for 2 1/2 years when I was about 9 years old.

2) I used to collect pig ornaments.

3) I crochet, but I have not done any since taking up cardmaking

4) I love the colour orange.

5) I never remember the correct words to songs.

6) I write poetry when going through bad times, never any other time.

7) I act more like a child than my daughters. (As in having fun and mucking around, not behaviour! LOL)

Now the 7 I am going to tag are;

Sam
Crafty Critter
Sarah
Jo
Sue
Donna
Mandy

Willow Sketch on Craftbubble No.2

Here is a card I made for the above challenge. Another great sketch from Sharon.

By the way Sue, sorry its orange!!

Willow Sketchie Challenge No. 3

This is the card I made for the Willow Sketchie Challenge. Sharon did a great Sketch for it and we had to doodle on the card too. I found this a little bit of a challenge but I am really pleased with how it came out.

Where It Happens.

Thought you would like to see where I craft. Now before you say anything about the carpet, we are renting, so naught to do with me! LOL Of course if you like the carpet, well good for you! LOL

As you can see, poor old me has to make do with the dining table, shared with Daughter 1 when she is on the comp. I tend to put things away every so often so we can eat at the table, although just lately we have been naughty and have not been doing that. I do try and keep it down to the bare minimum I have out, and just walk back and forth to my room, this is where the majority of my things are. Good exercise I suppose as I always forget something!



Above are two cards I made just for fun. The papers are from Sharon who let us have a freebie on the craftbubble site. Her site is here and you can find her shop here. They are lovely papers and I really enjoyed doing them.
