Pretty ladies cards

Hi everyone, I hope all is well with you today.This is a
 very quick post just to show you a few cards I have made
 recently. The first two I made for my two lovely SIL's,
 I added her age to one of them ( special birthday) but won't
 show it here :) The last one was made for my Son-in-law, I 
so hate making male cards I made several all the same. I
 will just alter the names.Hope they don't see this one now :)
ps. Our new bed arrived at long last ( van broke down if
 you remember ) . It's sooooo comfortable I think I will
be hibernating until Spring! Happy crafting everyone.

'With Love' cards

Good morning everyone, another 'Less is More' post today.
This week they want us to do some ......................................
Paper Piercing
"We want to see some tiny holes dotted around on your
 creations this week" 
I don't do much paper piercing so it had me stumped for a
 while. Then I had this idea so just decided to go for it.
Hmmm must practice more I think, anyway here's what
 I came up with.Two cards as I wasn't happy with one, you decide
which one you prefer !
ps. Not a happy bunny today as the new bed we were expecting
 today hasn't arrived. It seems the van broke down, because it's a
Superking/expensive one the manufacturers insisted they deliver it
 themselves.Just glad we didn't move our old one first ! Sorry about
the lack on commenting yet again, still not feeling great.

'Melody' silk ribbon necklace set

Good afternoon everyone, I hope you are all well and happy today.
Thankyou to all the  lovely people who asked about my health also.
I am always worse  from  Oct-April , February  being the worst
 time for me.Then is slowly starts to improve every month thank
 heavens. It's the rain which makes it so much worse too.I've had
 Rh. Arthritis for over 30 yrs now so well used to it lol. Hugs
 to anyone else who can't sleep or is suffering too atm., esp. poor
 Sasha  who is only managing 3 hours sleep...oh my!...lots of hugs
 to you Sasha. Had reflexology today again, that helps a lot too!
 Now enough of my rambling and onto my next project to show
 you. Here is another  real silk ribbon variegated colour necklace,
handmade & hand dyed by a very talented artist. I added a
 Swarovski clear key and made some Swarovski earrings to match
the colours in the necklace ribbon. Hope you like my new creations !
ps. Will be added to my website soon.

Musical card

Hi everyone, sorry if I didn't get around to leaving everyone a
 comment last week, been soooo busy lately.My Rh. Arthritis
 is playing up again too so not feeling that great atm. Hands esp.
 not good, so if I don't leave you a comment that's why...sorry!!
 Here is another 'Less is More' card , it's the dreaded one
 layer card again and this week the theme is ................
Music
I really struggled this time, a few of my efforts landed up in 
the 'round' file lol. I ended up using my trusty GCF programme
to print a coloured strip,I faded it then added some wording
and a bit of music score. I finished it by doing a spot of
stamping. A few tiny butterflies from a set with words ( I didn't
 stamp the wording part). Also a couple of dandelion seed heads
to finish it off. It's so sad that Mandi has decided to leave LIM,
but I wish her good luck in her new venture. Jen is a very 
talented replacement though and inspires us all every week.
ps. A very big welcome to all my latest followers, welcome aboard.
