This weeks crafting ....

Just finished this layout for a challenge over on " The Studio" ... Challenge to use old and new stash, so I have made the three large flowers with some scraps from the box and have used flowers I have had for I don't know how long and some true vintage buttons that I inherited from Granny along with some new buttons. For the new I have used some Prima papers given to me by the lovely Steph back in June.

the Title / Poem reads...

O gift from God

A perfect day

Whereon shall no man work but play

whereon it is enough for me

not to be doing but to be!

This layout is one finished earlier in the week.... looks like its all a bit pink lately.... !!!!

Sunday Afternoon

Hi there, having been working 6 days a week for the last month I have really come to appreciate my Sunday Afternoon, as it seams the only time I get to play with scissors and glue lately!!!

Here is this weeks offering xx

Sky Diving :O/ ???

Turn the photo upside down and it looks like Sky-Diving Cat !!!!!!!

LOL !!!!

Two pages

Hi there all, not been doing much as the weather has been too hot for me so have been home from work and flaking out on the sofa lol!

Have managed to finish off a couple of pages today in-between eating ice cream :O)

xx

Well it has been a bit non stop on the job hunting and filling in application forms for the last couple of weeks so not to much crafting been going on here! But I have managed a couple of bits and bobs.....

Willow flower... not quite a basket but its a start!!!!

Double page of some holiday snaps on Bodmin Moor, based on a design by Karen and using the club kit.

On the subject of the job... went for a care job on Friday for some work until things get sorted, the lovely lady interviewing me was a bit concerned that I was more qualified than her!!!!! She said "you know this is a care workers position don't you?" and I assured her that I did and would love the position!!!!

When I am teaching care workers I some times hear them say... "I'm just a care worker"... it really gets my back up!!! There is no such thing as 'JUST' a care worker... it is such an important job and NOT anyone can do it, If it was your mum or dad or child that needed a care worker you would want someone very special to do it, not just any Tom, Dick, or Harry that just walked off the street!!!!!

Any way... got a letter this morning to offer me the job, so looking forward to doing some 'hands on' care again for a bit.

Job Hunt

On the job hunt :O( being made redundant at the end of the month so been updating CV and trawling through job sites and filling in application forms so not had much time for the crafting this week. sent off a couple of applications yesterday and a few more to do today then i think its time to have a little crafting time :O)

feeling quite optimistic at the moment on the job front so fingers crossed someone will want me LOL xx
