Hello me lovelies

 Now behind the scene's of Gems little creations there has lots been going on but just when we thought everything was sort of getting back to normalish...we had a phone call last night from Lee's brother to say their Mum had been taken into hospital with a really bad chest infection so she has been pumped with antibiotics. Lee has spoken to his Mum this morning and the hospital informed her she has Pneumonia so they are keeping her in a little longer and thankfully they think they have caught it in time *phew* 
We are so hoping she will be at home for Christmas and if Lee's mum has her own way she will be home, she a tough cookie that one, Anyhoo please keep your fingers crossed for us!!

I do hope 2014 is going to be a better one for all my family as 2013 hasn't been a great one!!

I cannot believe it's Christmas day very soon so are you all ready for the big man in the red suit to visit...my boys are getting very excited here or is that just me...probably the later one lol

A little bit floral....

Hello me lovelies

I am here later then i wanted to be today but i got busy doing other things last night so i couldn't schedule the post and this morning that i didn't get the chance either so i thought i will pop by tonight instead but before i get on with it...
I would like to say again to all my lovely blogging buddies...thank you from the bottom of me heart for all the kind words you all left for me regarding my uncles death and funeral, they really do mean a lot to me and i feel very blessed to have such wonderful blogging buddies *kiss*

 I was suppose to be meeting with the ladies i craft with each and every week for our last craft night for Christmas but unfortunately 2 of the ladies are not well so it was best to cancel until after Christmas.
 Dawn and Pam if you read this post i hope you get better very soon ready for Christmas *hugs* but to all of you....Dawn, Pam, Ailsa and Judith & all your families I hope you all have a fantastic Christmas and all the best for the New Year!!

 Now today i don't have a Christmas card for you as i wanted a break from them so i decided to come up with a different design for everyday use. I have used a beautiful stamp set from Clearly Besotted called 'Fancy Florals' and the matching die set which you can find here
I have used Strawberry and chocolate combo with a little bit of kraft thrown in for good measure so here's todays creation...hope you likey :)

I am entering this card into Muse challenge and the inspiration i have taken from their card is the flowers and the pink tones from their card.

Papers and card...Trimcraft First edition Sweet Owl 8 x 8 papers, Brown and kraft {stash}
