Sad Day

Today is not one I've been looking forward to - My beloved dad's funeral and ironically it would have been Mum's birthday too. To honour my dad,  I used a poem he wrote as a young man and made it into a picture, using "Butterfly Garden"  kit for Serif Craft Artist.

 

GOD BLESS YOU DAD - RE-UNITED WITH THE ONE TRUE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE.

RIP.......

A tribute to my dad

On Friday 17th May 2013 my beloved dad lost his fight for life, he was 84, This is a poem he wrote as a young man, he was always saying he might get it published, but never got round to it. I remember sitting at the side of him as he recited it to me over and over again until it was emblazoned into my mind.

As a lasting tribute to him, I played around with it in Serif Craft Artist and it's going to be framed, and a copy given to both of his grandsons, I hope they and their children will look at it often and remember how much he loved them all.

 

RIP DAD - I love you, and always will.

Reunited again with mum - the love of your life

 

GOD BLESS  XX

Wow Cobie is 7........

Cant believe Cobie is 7 where has all this time gone, it's hard to believe 4 years ago he was so poorly after being diagnosed with leukaemia, he's been such a brave little boy and thank the lord he has come out the other side no worse for wear, he's now just a typical cheeky little boy and we love him so much....

This image is from Lili of the Valley and coloured with Promarkers

Challenge 87 - Fussy & Fancy

This challenge is vintage over on Fussy & Fancy pop along and have a go, it may be the start of a whole new style for you too.

The stamped image was from a freebie with "Creativity" magazine (if anyone missed out on this set I have a spare one) never done vintage before and it felt so strange sticking all those elements on, thought at first I'd overdone them, but the more I look at it propped on my mantlepiece the more I like it, who knows this could be the start of a new style for me.

 

 

Princess

I'm just loving this Frou Frou digikit cd from http://www.crafterscompanion.co.uk/character-ranges-2157/frou-2406/cds-2407/crafters-companion-digikit-collection-22183.htm made especially for Craft Artist on Serif. It was so easy just put the elements together, click and print, the Princess sentiment is from Gingers House

 

One that no-one wants to make.....

Made for a lovely crafty friend who will be deeply missed, not only from her family, but from all who knew her too
RIP

Oh my goodness whats going on?
I have my dad in hospital,he's had a stroke, my son had to go on a drip in hospital because of dehydration, due to this bug going around, and my grandaughter had to visit the hospital she has a urine infection and I've had to visit the hospital for 2 days running to have a heart monitor fitted and removed, something good must happen soon........ but I'm not holding my breath.......
