<br />
So much has been happening so early into the year , and I'm soo excited I could just POP !! <br />
<br />
I have teamed up with an illustrator who is working on some gorgeous characters for a fabulous new stamp range .... something I have wanted to do for such a long time .<br />
<br />
we have 4 designs done only another 8 to go !! <br />
found a manufacturer and a company to supply the packaging, , so woooo hoooo here we go on what will be an exciting and hopefully successful journey , but most of all I can finally see my little creations come to life... and hopefully they will give others as much pleasure as me ...<br />
<br />
Hopefully all will go to plan and they will be launched later this year under Suburban Diva <br />
The stamps themselves are called LOU-LOU and TIGGY dont want to give too much away so watch this space ..... more news and sneaky peeks to follow </div>Mrs Bhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17043517624997819600noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120192743748033072.post-42183960331233408812010-12-01T04:58:00.000-08:002010-12-02T12:19:49.307-08:00Feelin blue milton bear<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Have taken the plunge and am gonna enter my first blog challenge !!!</div> <br />

Has it really been that long since I posted , what ever happened to all the good intentions to post every day ,.. lol , well so much has happened .and know one would have known back in February what a crazy and challenging year it would turn out.<br />
Right after my last post , I found a large lump and 2 weeks later had an appointment at the hospital where they gave me the devastating news that I had breast cancer and was shocked when they said I had to have a radical mastectomy. <br />
It was such a crazy time and the whole family were stunned and shocked . I was supposed to be starting a new job the following day , and my oldest daughter Lou was putting the finishing touches to her Jamaican wedding , <br />
I dont think any of it really sunk in and to be hon est I just went along with everything the doctors told ne , because I just wanted to get rid of this awful thing. <br />
I had surgery and recovered unbelievably quickly , mostly down to my stubborness me thinks , and the huge support from my family ... Tiggy was scared but was just amazing and I never lied to her , I told her everything and she was a real breath of fresh air ,.. felt so devastated about the wedding , LOu and Ryan had to cancel the trip to Jamaica , cos the Docs said I would not be able to fly that far , so they rearranged the whole thing at a local church and venue here with just a few months to go ,.. and i think fate plays a hand cos it was a truly amazing and very emotionaal day for everyone . <br />
I went back to work after just 7 weeks and although its been hard , feel that it really helped maintain an element of normality even tho I've struggled with the tiredness at times .<br />
So here I am 7 months on , still kicking and still trying to get a hold of this blogging thing....lol<br />
Been doing plenty of crafting and cardmaking , fallen in love with stamping and trying lots of new things .<br />
I hope to get some pics posted soon. <br />
Have been visiting lots of blogs and have found lots of inspiration . <br />
Love Zoe Bunnys blogspot and all the amazing stamps and goodies vailable in her shop , and Mags Little things ,,,just beautiful ... <br />
Soooooo. another promise to try and post every day ( or so) . and hope that nothing gets in the way this time , hugs Lori xxxxMrs Bhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17043517624997819600noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120192743748033072.post-91970863826615699422010-02-05T05:01:00.000-08:002010-02-05T05:01:46.785-08:00theres no place like home<strong><span style="color: #351c75;"> One of my promises to myself for this year is to surround myself with more of what i love ,.. </span></strong><br />

In her usual desire ro be different she didnt want to wear a white blouse and tarten sash so I ' adapted' and old bridesmaids dress that has been hanging around for years and I was loathed to get rid of cos its so beautifully made. It fitted her like a glove, you would think it was made for her , and she added her own individual touch with a pair of black leather knee length pirate boots ( Where did she get this individual streak I wonder ? lol ) and she really was a Bonnie Lassie !!<br />
<br />
She was really enrvous about getting up in front of people to sing , but manged it with out too many wobbles , and had a couple of tunes on the recorder( thank goodness all that practising is finished, I thought she was killing a small animal in her room) . <br />
Here's a pic of my gorgeous girl ,.. can't believe how grown up she looks ,.... sniff sniff <br />

Went to the car booty yesterday and all the odds and ends i bought at auctiion flew off the table yesterday and i made enuff to cover what i bought at auction and buy some more with a bit of profit as well ....<br />
ohh this could be addictive ,<br />
Since giving up work funds have been so very tight , sometimes non existant so whenever i do a clearout i load everything up and head to Glasgow to the car booty to recycle and put some pennies back in the big chicken ( i used to love watching the tv series bread and usually at the end all the family had to cough up what they'd made and they all put it into a big ceramic hen in the middle of the table , so thats why we call our funds , the chicken, thought I had better explain, )<br />
So the combined efforts of our preloved items and my auction buys made a helpful sum , much needed as its Tiggys birthday in under 2 weeks and as for any 11 year old there is an extensive list !!<br />
One thing I was really pleasantly surprised abou,t I took a basket of cards with me and sold all but a couple,.. so must make sure next time I go that I have a pile made up , <br />

What a wonderful experience, only downer was that funds weren't as abundant as i would have liked, but maybe thats a good thing or i would have bought half lots in the saleroom!!! I settled for this little beauty, a gorgeous vintage steamer trunk , not sure whether to leave it alone or alter it in some way.<br />
I love the leather handles and the chunky metal lock , might refurb the inside somehow but not sure with what , might just sit and look at it for inspiration ! <br />
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">Oh and forgot to mention that i also bought another vintage suitcase and a box of odds and ends that turned out to have some stunning crystal pieces and a few other bits that i am gonna try and sell on and get some funds for the next one, where i have my eye on a particularly gogeous vintage blanket box and a cutesy vintage oak sewing box which the auctioneer told me that because they didnt sell this week will go back into the auction next week,.... have reserved my spot already!!! <br />

</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><strong><span style="color: #674ea7;">What started off as us all jetting off on our hols to Jamaica, somehow then morphed into a wedding! which has now turned into a wedding, a huuuuuge reception when we get back and a logistical challenge to co-ordinate what feels like 2 seperate weddings , to get it to all come together and feel like one big special occasion,... but I think with Lou's imagination, Ryans' patience and all the parents contributions to the day , we might just pull off a spectacular wedding.</span></strong><br />

</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><strong><span style="color: #674ea7;">The new year has obviously set the wedding planning into hyperdrive as we've spent the last 48 hrs ticking lots of boxes and making more lists ... everythings booked , save the date cards have already gone out , venues sorted , band catering,kilts , photographer all organised , right down to the favours only one really important thing seems to be undecided, THE DRESS!! </span></strong><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><strong><span style="color: #674ea7;">So yesterday after endless searching , she found THE ONE , and has made the very brave decision to order direct from China, to keep costs down. After lots of ooohs and aaaahs and a few tears it was business as usual but for just a few moments it felt like she was 5 again and had just seen her party dress for the first time ... sniff sniff </span></strong><br />

<br />
<strong><span style="color: purple;">You'd think with all the horrible weather grounding us , that I'd find more time huh? </span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: purple;">Not so like most days its dribbled thru my fingers, having a massive re shuffle round the house and decorating the lounge which I suppose is the real culprit but its getting there ,.. almost done just a few accessories and finishing touches , and VOILA pics will be posted soon i promise .</span></strong><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="color: purple;">Not done much crafting but have been pleased with what i've done, and that i'm getting better all the time ... lots of commissions just now and seems like every second card is done with my trusty Penny Blacks , cant wait to get some new ones, but life on a budget means that no definately means no till I've saved more pennies ) .</span></strong><br />
<br />
