Your Challenge Cards

Good Sunday Morning Ladies,

No news from Lynda as yet, when I spoke to her yesterday morning nobody had been to tell her whether she was having surgery or not having surgery, she had asked the nurses but they hadn't got back to her with an answer.  I know just how frustrating this is, when you are sat there desperate to get home and they just leave you hanging with no clue as to whats going on.  Hopefully they will have some news for you today my lovely xxxx

Let's look at your cards.....

Brenda

Brenda has shared Tierney's 21st Birthday card for this weeks TicTacToe Challenge,  it is just so pretty, I love that shoe!

Brenda used Categories: Birthday/Die cut/Ribbon 

The Shoe Die that Brenda has used is a 'Sweet Dixie' die, the flowers are from Hobbycraft.

I bet Tierney loved her card,  what 21 year old doesn't love shoes?!.

I love your beautifully coloured Robin and your Holly with its Gloosy berries, you always add the special little details to your cards Lilian and it really shows, thank you for taking part this week my lovely XXX 

Well yesterday ended up being very frustrating,  Paul was 'on call' although i'm not sure why as the people that usually do it are on a much higher pay grade, problem is his company have lately taken to employing Spanish people, (Airbus is based in spain), now they didnt stop and think about the fact that most of these employees take leave from early December to go back to Spain for Christmas and New Year, so they have left themselves with nowhere near enough staff to cover, so they are pressuring other members of staff to cover weekends,  So Paul got called put 3 times yesterday, 40 mile round trip each time, (they dont pay fuel) the last one was while we were shopping, so I am sat in the car,  in the dark, freezing cold as I write this, he was going to be ten minutes about an hour ago! 

I wonder what today will bring, I know he will be exhausted as he will have worked 7 days straight and then is expected to start again tomorrow morning!! So by friday he will have worked 12 days in a row! 

Sorry Rant over, i could only manage to sit on Soap Box today ladies! haha

Enjoy your Sunday, 

Love and hugs to all,

Sandra
