Last February Cards

  


As I already said, and still on the agenda, I feel much better - March is approaching,the weather is getting warmer and it smells of Spring. So I am trying to find more time to do my favourite things. Still the sawing machine is in the box though...since last June.
Hmmm.I should try it soon, I think.
   Anyway. 
I did a few more new cards,as I just got new stamps,new tags, papers and chip-boards. I feel inspired and can't wait for my little one to go for a nap so I can try them out.
Its always the same with me, I get new stuff and feel so overwhelmed and happy, can't sit down till I don't try it out. 
    I ve got to see the result quick and almost immediately. That's why even I finished Fashion, I couldn't handle the do and undo thing,waiting for things just to happen and sit behind the sawing machine for hours and hours,days after days...So i went for hair, make up, cooking,crafts. Things happen much more quicker and suits me better. It's still fun, and brings pleasure and fulfilment. It's inspiring and joy for the eye and soul.





                     I was asked to make more Birthday Cards - as I don't have any left, so I did.





This is one of the new studs I got through the door I had to use it straight away.
I so love to get packets posted to me, so I order a lot.
Thank you to ONline shopping!

 
  
 This one is slightly unusual Birthday card..,almost you can't tell It's a Birthday card, but if you look close enough will notice the little circular stamp:)

Crafty weekend

January's gone, finally.
I Hate January.
Wasn't a great month for me but after February is gone too, I started to feel a bit better and full with hopes for the Spring.
 Went for a few walks in the forest near us and seeing the green leaves again, snowdrops and daffodils made me more optimistic and put a permanent smile on my face for the whole weekend.( It's  dull and rainy again,but this is another story)
More Crafty Ideas and inspirations are heading to my head.
Cooking has been the escape for me for the last months and has kept me warm and able to smile and have fun in this horrible water.
 Now I am ready for the Spring and would like to put new agenda on my list.
 More creativeness, more time for myself, more music,more books,more healthy food and may be yoga, if I've got time for it after all that.
Resolutions? May be...
The Sunday just gone was one of those days, I made some effort to do some stretches, made the Traditional Sunday breakfast - with a twist and it didn't turn out the way I wanted,so decided to make up for it with the making of my New recipe Book. Thankfully the result wasn't  as the breakfast one and made my day. How much do we need to feel happy and little smile to lighten up our face. Here is the result:
( I got an order for a few like this one already, jupiiii)
                               



I dedicated this book to my lovely grandma who we lost recently and I will make it a Book with recipes from everyone I love, will make it more a food Diary then just a notebook with cut-outs and hand-written recipes. 
My grandma? She was the most amazing person I know. Full with energy and life.Style and fines was all around her. 
The kitchen was her love, duty, fun. Place to get together with her closest ones.
A person who gave everything for her family and children! She has 3 daughters-the third one, was myself.
I love you grandma and I always will.


PS: You are more then then welcome to join me on my food blog and check out the recipes.
