Update

Well it's been awhile since I've updated my blog. So much has happened since Jeff had his accident and moved in with us. I'll miss him when he's able to go back to his own flat. I'll no doubt suffer from the empty nest syndrome again. The good news is, finally Paul has a job! Well done Paul we're so proud of you as usaul. The doctor is pleased with Jeff's progress. The stitches are out and the pins will be removed on the 21st. The not so good news is a friend had a slight stroke and a relative has sadly been diagnosed with alzheimers.
I've not had much time for card making with all that's been going on but I did manage to make a get well soon card for Jeff and a swap card for my card making group which I've uploaded here.
I've heard from Paul & Kirsty that the keepsake box I made delighted Emma and Matthew and that made my day. I've just started another one and hope it will be as well received.

Off to the wedding

Here's a photo of our daughter Sarah & son Jeff before they left for my nephews wedding today. Our other son Paul and our daughter-in-law Kirsty couldn't attend just not able to travel from Dubai. Kenny and I were so sad not to be able to attend either. Just hoping Jeff's careful of his newly broken foot. Get well soon Jeff and congratulations and best wishes Mike & Donna xx

Another wedding card

I was asked to make this card for my nephew and his partner who are finally getting married on Sunday. Let's hope the weather improves but if not I'm sure they'll have a wonderful day.

Keepsake Box

I've been busy making my first ever Keepsake Box. It was quite a challenge for me as my daughter-law-asked me to make one for a freind who's getting married next month. It was dificult as Kirsty is in Dubai and all my instructions and questions were done via email. After a lot of trial and error I'm deighted to say Kirsty loves it and if I had a market I would make them to sell.
I'm looking forward to my birthday tomorrow. Going with my family to the theatre to see We Will Rock You.
