Last week I had a few die cuts spread out. Here they are put together.
The little gold angels to the bottom left are fabric paper with gold wired ribbon wings and a button for the face. They don't hang well, but could be used on a card or a tag. Just ways to use dies other than what they were designed for.
Hubby is finished with the corn crop,will be cutting the stocks and preparing the fields for final plowing before the heavy snow arrives. He rents about 600 acres for farming. We had snow flurries and are still having very cold weather wind chill today is 26 degrees and some strong winds.
Thanks for those who visited, I did not visit many, spending time with mom, Thursday as a no wind day and quite warm, so took her to a lake area and went to a coffee shop, She was doing well with her ankle, and we had a fun day. But now she has had 3 days of a back issue. Will find out more later today. IF only she could remember what happens to her, it would help so much. Memory loss is a terrible terrible thing.

Love the angels Sylvia......youve been busy. Memory loss is never easy to cope with but I’m sure it’s much harder for you to watch than it will be for your mum so that’s a blessing for her.

Morning Sylvia. Love the little angels - well done - a good, different use, for the dies. I admit to liking the tree made from the fan die the best. I like the edge.
Take care. God bless.

Hi Sylvia, you are so inventive with the Christmas angels. Hope your mum's back is better soon. Happy WOYWW Sarah #23
It is a terrible thing as much for the family as for the sufferer. I do feel for you, it's a tough thing to have to watch your parent go through. Sending hugs xx
I do like those angels very much, it's the patterns that appeal to me!

Such pretty angels and a clever idea too. I hope your mum's back is better - I do feel for you as I looked after my mum who had Alzheimers for several years - it's a heartbreaking illness to deal with.
Sending hugs,

Hi Sylvia, love your experiments with the dies. Always good to get more uses from them. Have a lovely week, Hugs, Shaz #6 XxX
Sylvia LOVE those beautiful angels! Flurries????? I wish we got theme here in South Georgia, but it's usually a NO! LOL Hope hubby successfully harvests before the flurries turn to flakes! LOL What a treasured time is sounds like you had with your mom! My heart goes out to you on the memory score! I am dealing with elderly parents as well, but memory still good! Blessings to you as you care for her! Felicia #30
gorgeous angels! Have a great week. Helen #4
Ah your poor Mum, it is so hard. MY Mum is deeply affected by dementia and although we know she feels it, she can't express pain anymore, doesn't rally know what it means. She has arthritis so I know she gets pain. It's horrid to have to guess for her, so I feel your frustration very much. Make the most of those warm, time-for-coffee days!
Oh yoUr die cut angels and trees are clever, I do like it when you get more out of what you already have, clever you!
I love your various angels! I think you're an angel, too, for taking such good care to spend time with your mom. Memory loss is so difficult, but it sounds like you are making the very best of the time you spend with her.
Fab little angels - very cheery. I know how you feel about your Mum - so lovely that you can spend time with her. xx Jo
The angels are so lovely. I am sorry to hear your mum is having a struggle but it's so sweet you are spending time with her x

Love how versatile dies can be, just wish I used mine more but often forget until after I've created something! Take care Zo xx 26
What a clever use of different dyes, Sylvia. That shows real imagination! The angels are gorgeous, and I do love the gold fabric ones, too. So sorry about your mum, but it's great that you can spend time with her - making her present moments so nice, even if she doesn't remember afterwards.
Happy belated WOYWW,

I'm sorry, I totally missed this one! Lovely desk this day! Looking a lot like Christmas!
