Tired and Grouchy

As many of you have asked how I’m getting on with my back pain I thought a little update was in order. It ranges from unbearable to manageable but either way it’s not good, I have got an appointment but not until next Friday, I could have had an earlier appointment but wanted a certain doctor who knows the history of what is going on.

I have however occurred some other complications which I won’t go into at the moment as chances are it will set me off feeling sorry for myself and I just can’t go there.

Chris does most of the stuff around the house and often tells me to sit down and even making dinner has sits between, not sure what I’d of done without him, he’s a keeper.

I have at least something to look forward to as we are off to the Proms in the park next Saturday so I will go with back rubs and heat patches in hand.

Oh yes I nearly forgot, I had my hair done yesterday and I’m now brown, blonde and copper.

Thanks for keeping me going and the concern you show, I love you all. Mwoa big smooches.

Loving Christmas–Sheena Douglass

As you may know, Sheena Douglass is a friend of mine, she’s as mad as a cabin cat with a North East humour very much on lines with my own, she is also a talented artist and what is so nice about her is that she works so darned hard at it.

Sheena has just released her new Christmas Stamps and I was very privileged to get to play with them.

This one is Loving Christmas, and she’s gorgeous.

Coloured with Copic Markers and prisma pencils and a touch of glitter here and there and teamed up with Graphic45 paper. Ribbon from Ribbon Carousel

I added glossy accents to the heart Christmas ornament to make it pop.

No Peeking!

Ah Ah ah! I wish i had a pound for every time I've said that. More still for every time I’ve had it said to me, as a child I was terrible I'd shake it, sniff it, feel it, try to see through the wrapping, have a guess on the size of it of all the things I’d like and as an adult I'm not much better.

Santa Kai by Mo’s Digital Pencil 

santa kai 1

Coloured and glittered, papers from my stash memory box, Marianne, Cheery Lynn and Whimsey dies.

Silk ribbon (my favourite0 from Ribbon Carousel.
