Suzy Bee DT - White on White

Hi all!

Well, Oban was an experience.  If it had been dry and warm it would have been lovely but we had wind, rain, hail, sleet, snow, thunder and lightening ... all in one day!  Thankfully we had taken our waterproof coats and hats with us so all in all it was OK.  There were plenty of cafes to duck in and out of!

Here are two views from our hotel window -

Sleety snow!

Across the bay when there was a break in the weather!

On now to what I should have been doing before I left ... making this card for Suzy Bee!  I thought it was done as I'm a bit ahead of the challenges but for some reason this one got missed.  Anyway here it is now.

Hi Peeps!

How are you all this morning?  It's a better morning here in my little corner of the world and the sun's actually trying to poke it's head through the clouds.  Roll on Spring but I fear we may have a little of the white stuff before that happens!

Nothing much happening in the Campbell household today.  Mr C is on call so can't go far from the house and I've got a date with Mr Vacuum and Mr Duster!  It's a hard life but if I get a wriggle on I'll have the afternoon to play in the craft room.  Enjoy your weekend.

Hugs

Hi!

Me again.  I made this card the other day when I was playing.  Sometimes when you've finished a card it says 'lovely' to you and this is one of them.  I'm really pleased how this one turned out and it's yet another CAS one!

I'm scheduling this post as Mr C and I have decided we are going out for a seniors lunch.  Great I thought, no cooking today again!  I love eating ... hate cooking.  I'd rather clean or bake any day and since Mr Lottery hasn't decided we're on his list of good causes I can't afford a Michelin Star Chef!

Get Well

Hi!

I made this card on Sunday but have scheduled it for today in case I don't have time to do some crafting.  I'm meeting one of my friends today and we're off for a seniors' lunch ... I don't mind being retired at all, it certainly has its compensations!

Have a good day.

Hello everyone!

At least I've made it onto my blog today and at a reasonable time.  Yesterday whizzed by in a blur ... so many irons in the fire just now there are not enough hours in the day!

Just a very quick post before going to make something to eat or Mr C's tummy will be rumbling!

Enjoy your evening.

Clean & Simple

Hi folks

At last I've got round to sharing a creation with you.  I was out with my Aunt yesterday and by the time I got home I didn't feel too good.  I wasn't so bad when I got up this morning and went out for lunch with my daughter but am beginning to feel a bit poorly again.  My head and the back of my eyes are sore and I'm coughing like a good 'un.  I sincerely hope I've not got the bug that's going around cos it's another one that lasts for ages.  Another early night for me I fear.

Anyway, here's a card for the Saturday Less is More challenge.  The naughty photo fairy has been at work again and the card looks as though it's very squint ... not in real life though, believe me!

Off to make cuppa and take another couple of paracetamol.  NCIS is on shortly so that will keep me occupied until bed time.

Enjoy your evening.

Hugs

Spring has Sprung!

Happy Friday morning!

Yes, another day I can say, sunshine and blue skies!  I'm off out with my Aunt today and haven't a clue where to take her.  It's hard finding somewhere different and where it's flat.  No doubt we'll think of somewhere and as long as there's a cafe en route we'll be OK!

Mr C has a 'to do' list today.  I switched on the hoover yesterday and it just blew all the dust around the house .... grrr.  I've tasked him with trying to (a) find out what is wrong and (b) fix it!  It's maybe just as well that I'm going to be out because the air may be blue as well as dusty.

Best get a wriggle on.

Take care

Hugs

Much Cuteness

Morning peeps!

Hope you are all well this morning and the weather where you are is not too bad.  Here the sun is shining but the grass is white with frost.  I love those kind of days.  

Mr C is having to take his car back to the garage today then we will have to pop down to Dundee to pick up something that I ordered.  I can't tell you what it is just now as it's for my daughter's birthday and she'll see this!

While hopping around the blogs I follow I came across this sketch that the lovely Jules had used and it inspired me to have a go too.  It's ages since I used a Teddy Bea image and I thought this one fitted perfectly.

Take care

Hugs
