hi all from a very wet and very dark kilcoole,

My main computer has gone to the computer hospital for a few days with we think a virus, which is why i haven't been around for a few days.

 My other puter this one is only connected to the internet by a tempremental router  so it's a hit and miss affair.

My daughter katie did very well in the Junior Cert exams much better than anyone including me thought!

at the beginning of last year i had promised her 50 euros for every A she got 40 for B 30 for C and 20 for D
she got 5 b's 3c's and 3 d's  do the maths a lot more than i expected to pay out  ah but it's worth it!!!.

I  was in the process of making her congrats card when she rang me with the results so lucky i had it made by the time she got home  have also made similar cards for her 2 best friends who also did very well.

I still haven't learnt to upload photos yet  still waiting yvonne!!!
so as soon as i learn i will upload photographs of my cards.

My Grandson Alex is nine on 3rd of October so i have to make his card soon not sure what i will do for that he is into "Moshi Monsters" but i love the adorable images from Lily of the Valley stamps and die-cut images they are just so cute.
Going to Belfast on the 12th October for 2 days with my other half, but have planned to take in the Stitch and Craft show on the 13th while i am there I am really looking forward to that as always. It will be funny this year not going up on the train with the girls. And of course i have to buy all those things i really , really need!!!!

see flashing lights here so better hurry and post this before i lose all

thursday

i have to decide today how i can load photos of some of my cards, not that i have taken many photographs. Unfortunately when you are asked to make a personalised card it is very easy to forget to take a picture, you just want the customer to be really pleased with your creation and that's the most important thing.

I made my first set of wedding invitations earlier this year and i was so pleased with the results,will upload a photograph at a later date i have just loaned a copy to my good friend anne who is going to make her son's invites.

Christmas (and i hate using the "C" word this early but it really is only a matter of weeks away)

I have started making my christmas cards have about 20 made so far . I have fallen in love with the lily of the valley images and most of my cards feature these very cute images. Again will try and do the piccie thingy!!!!
