Mojo138

Hi, could not sleep again last nite, so actually have done my Mojo before the link closes. Love this set and think the DSP is very pretty. Thanks Tracey for selling me this sheet.

Tis an awful gray day here today with very heavy rain and last nite, we were without power for several hours after a tornado went thru a town just past us, called Oakura. Not too much serious damage luckily,and we had a nice candle light dinner of fish and chips. After tea we made a nice cuppa on the camp stove and were almost disappointed when the power came back on!!

Hope you all have a nice weekend. Take care Love Rel xx

Mojo Monday 102

Hello there, spent part of Saturday afternoon doing this, and just finished it off now being 3.23a.m. as can't sleep, so thought I would just do the last touches and get it posted before Mojo closes tomorrow nite NZ time as missed last week. I wanted to use a set I had not used for a while and love the bike stamp from the 'always time for you' stampin up set. I know my cutting out is a bit wonky!! on the white part, and can't wait till I can get some spellbinders and that will make all the difference. At the moment have to use a fiskars cutter I have, but tis only one shape and not a smaller one to go with it, so end up doing it free-hand, hence the wobbly cutting!

Thank you so much for all your lovely comments about the baby card and my last Mojo 101, it is so neat to get your encouragement. Well just a short post tonite, better head back to bed and try and get some beauty sleep lol..... have a big day tomorrow, 11 choirs are singing in the afternoon in a competition I am part of, so need to rest as much as I can and be in good voice.

Thanks for looking and take care, Rel xxx

Can't keep away

I wasn't going to stamp for a few days as I said, but can't go past my craft room without thinking... maybe I have time to make just to a quick card... LOL was up most of the nite unable to sleep and was checking out splitcoaststampers.com and you would think I would have been sleepy this morning, but got up early after only about an hour's sleep!! and waved my darling off to work at 8a.m. and instead of catching a few shut eye hours, decided to make a creation. So two hours later this is it. It hasn't come up too well in the photo, have quite a bit of shadow on it, but love this wee stamp set and am sorry it is another one they have retired, but am glad to have it still and enjoy using it. Also love the DSP. I think stampin up have the loveliest DSP and it is so classy. I have lots, but there is a deal on at the moment where you buy three packs and get one free and I think I will be tempted again.
Had stamp club yesterday at Michelle's and her lovely boy Mason was home after having an awful time with an asthma attack. Poor love he didn't look his usual bright sparkly eyed self, but was enjoying being home and having the TV all to himself and being there with MUM home. Poor Michelle and Said it is such a worry when our children are sick and hope he is improving today and you can relax and get some sleep yourself Michelle.
We made three really cool things the one I liked most was a Mountain card, very snazzy. Also a flower pot card and that was gorgeous. Will be making lots of those even if it is time consuming cutting out the flowers that decorate the top.
Well have rambled on and need to have a catch up Nana nap before a busy nite having two choir practises getting ready for our first concert of the year which is on Sunday avo 24th May.
Thank you to my lovely friend Jacqui who is so encouraging over this blogging and keeping me at it. Also love any comments and suggestions you may think any of the cards may need.
Take care
