HARDLY WORTH ME MAKING AN APPEARANCE .. .. LOL!!!

Hi Everyone

Well I am so late tonight it is hardly worth me bothering .. .. LOL!!!

Once again only one make .. ..  I am sure life will calm down a little soon.

I spent a good bit of the day with my Mum and at the same time put inserts into all the cards I have had stacked waiting to be packaged up.  At least those are all done and dusted now.  A few orders to do and then next week is going to be wedding fayre, wedding fayre, wedding fayre!!!  Plenty on my "still got to do" list .. .. eek!!  Lots of butterflies in my tummy too but hopefully these will settle down soon.

Someone once told me that you only get nervous if something is important to you.  I don't know if that is true but if so then this is definitely "very" important LOL!! 

Anyway round to "the" share of the day  .. ..  it has to be my favourite because it is the only one I have made!!

This used:

Image:  Docrafts Forever Friends "FFS 907106" Sports

Sentiment:  Pink Petticoat
Backing Papers:  Aimee Asher for the patterns and Pink Petticoat for the scrap of newsprint
Woodware Punch:  Small label
Brad and thread from the Stash Box

As soon as I stuck my image down at an angle I thought "why did you do that?"  I try so hard not to have everything lined up and square on my cards .. .. but for some reason I never feel comfortable with the results if they aren't .. .. and yet I think it looks great on other people's creations.

I liked it better once I added the newspaper print paper and the little label.

This image reminded me of my Dad .. .. not that he was a bear!!!  But he did like fishing (and a good snooze bless him).  He used to take me with him if he was doing just general fishing but if it was a competition I wasn't allowed to go.  In fact sometimes he had been and come home again before I had even got up in a morning!!

I own a lovely photograph of him (not many around sadly) after a fishing competition.  He had his "catch" all lined up on the "keep net" and a snap was taken before the fish were thrown back.  I love the picture .. .. but Mum managed to spoil it a little because she told me years later that what the men used to do was to "pool their catches together" and each one of them would individually pose in front of the line of fish as though they had caught all of the fish themselves.  Naughty boys!!! LOL!!!

I still love the photo though and it makes me smile to think of all the men replacing each other and having a snap taken.

Right off to eat my lovely supper.

Catch you again tomorrow.

Love
