Special Greetings to You....I'm back, hadn't planned on being gone so long. But grandchildren had sports events and a half day off school, so I went to visit. Hubby was in the field at home so did not need me to transport him here and there. Something special about time with grand kids ! Plus I got two mornings of shopping in the city and had fun with their nice weather.
Here it is warm 75 or so, but the terrible winds have been around for more than 10 days and you cannot be outside too long. Dust, dirt and grit. And branches or twigs everyday to pick up.
I've also spent sometime sorting and either getting ready for a garage sale in May or just taking it to a donation place. I have had to make several cards, have lots of birthdays, a wedding and 2 retirement parties.
I am in love with this little stitching book. Cover is on the desk Crazy Quilt Stitches. Only 50 cents at a thrift shop.
The makings of a Wedding card.

My daughter in law shares her birthday with her 8 year old son
This Ninja like paper doll has movable arms and legs and held some money within the card
Ninja is his theme
He was happy with the inside, as these characters are his favorite.
So that about does it for today. Hoping I can post a few of the other cards later this week,

Happy WOYWW. That wedding card is truly stunning - gorgeous colours. Our grandchildren are still young - 1 and 2 - but I look forward to sports day (which will come around far too quickly). Ali x #33

I'm doing a lunchtime whizz round all my fav blogs having had a busy morning shortening trousers and a very posh long dress in the sunshine.....what more could a girl wish for?
I really love your little stitching book too and you've been busy with some lovely projects too this week.
Hugs,

My goodness you've had a busy time and lots of fun too by the look of it. Your cards are lovely and what a fun card the moveable Ninja is. I recently made a moveable robot card and it was great fun to do. Enjoy the rest of your day. Barbxx #26
Your cards are lovely Sylvia but that little stitch book is totally fab - would love one of those! It all looks so clear and simple. I know I can do most stitches but it's great to have a nice little prompt like that. x Jo
Lovely cards! That's such an interesting book - what a lovely find.
