Mixed Up Saturday

 

Good Saturday Morning Ladies, 

I hope that your weekend gets off to a better start than mine.  

After having a lovely day out with some amazing friends we started the journey home,  after about 20 mins into the journey I had over whelming need to use the bathroom,  this was my first sign,  Then came the altogether agonising part of uti, the pain on passing urine.  I have a GP appointment 

Now on a lighter note lets look at some craft goodies.....

I placed an order on Tracy Evans website on Wednesday and this lovely card was included in my parcel,  Tracy created this card a couple of weeks ago , it's on her YouTube page. I have to say that her colouring is incredible 😍.   

When I got home yesterday I had an envelope waiting for me,  when I opened it it was Happy Mail from our Lilian!   I asked which make the die was thet she used for her sentiment last weekend,   so she very kindly sent me some die cuts.  They were attatched to this beautiful Tag,  Lilian has inked the background,  added stencilling and then used a beautiful rub on.  I have to say that my photo doesn't do it justice!  It's so pretty.  Thank you so much Lilian ❤️ 

Now onto some craft shopping.....

Sonia

Thank you Sonia for sharing your shopping,  I'm secretly thrilled that you have bern bitten by the Stamperia bug!  I absolutely love your stamps and that paper pad is next on my list!  

My Shopping 

I  couldn't resist these new Tracy Evans stamps,  I love those stags, the antlers are amazing, the berries and foliage are great background fillers too.

These new concept Tim Holtz Mixed Media stamp and stencil kits are a perfect way to dip  your toe in to mixed media art.  They have a small selection of stamps from a bigger stamp set,  and a stencil thst  has a combination of two different stencils on, they are a perfect size for cards and little journal pages. 

Finally my latest Stamperia collection, these Junk Journals have a great selection from a particular Collection,  they have die cuts, background pages, sentiment strips and lots of little Ephemera bits,  I love their Allegro paints too, the blues in this collection are lovely.

I hope todays post is readable,  I had to write and  re write bits of it so many times as I just couldn't string a sentence together.  I started it at 11pm while waiting for 111 GP to call me,  I had to delete and rewrite most of ot at 6.45am while on route to out of hours GP appointment 😭.  They wanted me to go in at 3am but Paul was sound asleep and so where the girls,  so I said I would wait a couple of hours.   This is a really painful one though,  the bacteria is clearly well embedded in my bladder   and after nurse told me to stop antibiotics on Tuesday as bacteria was resistant to penicillin,  the bacteria has gotten busy multiplying without antibiotics!  I did ask if this would happen,  nurse just said 'see how you get on'  !! 

I hope you have a good Saturday, 

Love & hugs,
