The Sunday CD Challenge - Alphabets M

Hi,
What another day of wind and rain, the day started off quite nice and the sun was shining, but by mid morning it clouded over the then the rain came, heavy showers and now its fine, sun shining but still windy. Its the reminds of Hurricane Katia, and now they say the hurricane off the British Virgin Islands could come up on the Jet stream too, so we could have another blast of windy weather. There does seem to be a lot of damage up north in Scotland and northern England but we have been spared some of the really bad weather that hit Scotland. Its only September and it feel like Autumn is really here.
Today I bring you my card for the Sunday Cd Challenge this week it is the Alphabets M, so M for mermaid. I used the image and backing papers from Joanna Sheen's CD Enchanted Dreams. Then I used some peel off images from a Kit I brought some time ago of mermaids and fish, and added some gold/silver peels offs of fish. Finished off the card with some white ribbon.



Close ups.

I hope where ever you are the weather is better with you than here and the sun is shining on you.

Until we meet again in blog land take care and stay safe.

Hugs

The CD sunday challenge - just because

Hi,
Well the sun has now come out to play, they said it would be cloudy all day, but its nice to see the sun shine. We have had the coldest summer on record since 1993 and the its been wet, funny we had the warmest spring on since records began this year followed by the coldest summer, and they say we are having global warming!!!!
Today I bring you my card for the Sunday Cd challenge this week its Just because, so I thought of a red rose for my card. I used Robert Adams Roses CD for the roses image and backing sheet, I added the words from the computer, a piece of lace for down the side and red ribbon, with two red heart gems, finished off with gold peel offs.

I do like this Cd there are some lovely real life roses on it in so many different colours. Its a really good CD and a real must in my collection.

Its nearly a week since I had the latest operation, its still sore but they did go down so deep when they cut. I am trying to be good and not bend down, reach up, etc I just wish I did not feel so cold all the time, and not feeling very well. The surgery wondered if I had an infection but the scar is clean and looking good so they say, I cant see it as its on my back. So they have taken a blood test today to see if I have an infection.

I hope you like my challenge card today, and that you are keeping well, until we meet again in blog land take care

The Sunday CD challenge - Buttons

Hi,
Its a beautiful morning here in Somerset, the sun is shining and its quite warm, I hope its the same where ever you are. This for me seemed a hard challenge , I don't like buttons on cards, but that's me and then I lost my mojo, so this is not the best card in the world. I used an image from The Pamela West Collection from Joanna Sheen. I do like her Cd's and this is an image I have not used before.
I put the image on an oil water pink sheen card, which reflects the colours from the image, rainbow ribbon from Spiral. The pink buttons I sewn into the silk flowers and then used silicone glue to fix them onto the card. I finished off the card with silver peel offs. I used a white scalloped card as the base.


There are some lovely cards on the challenge site so do pop over and have a look link

I hope you are keeping well and until we meet again in blog land, take care

Hugs
