Hello and an update

Once again I have been very rubbish at posting on my little blog.  I have been very busy over the last couple of weeks and have had lots of ups and downs with my pregnancy again!!!  I finally finished work a couple of weeks ago so I have been much better since I could rest up at home.

I am now 37 weeks pregnant and after an hospital appointment last Thursday I have found out that I am now going to be induced next Saturday 24th November at 38 weeks due to the complications and pain that I am now in.

On a plus side we did get to see our little girl again on Thursday when I had another scan to see if my placenta had moved and reality is now kicking in me thinks :-)

I am very excited, but very scared (of the labour!!!) at the same time!

I have been busy making lots of cards for orders that my Mum has taken for me so I am hopefully going to get them finished before I go into Hospital.  Other than that I am ready to go for next week!

I hope to post very soon with pictures of my beautiful little girl when she arrives and with some Christmas cards that I have been making over the last few months to get organised!  For once I think I may have done it this year!

Love Kerry x

Making a start on my Christmas cards.....

Hi All

I hope you are all enjoying your Sunday.  I am having a very lazy day today for a change.

I haven't been well over the last couple of weeks and I have been signed off work with high blood pressure and terrible swelling of my feet and legs so I  have had to to rest at home.  Only 8 weeks to go and counting!

I have coloured a few images to pass my time and I have started to make my Christmas cards to try and be organised.

My Mum bought me this lovely Urban Stamp - Tulip Christmas which is called Mistletoe Friends and I love it so I made a simple Christmas card ideal for a couple.

 

I didn't use any designer paper on this card at all and I love the effect.  I also used a 7 x 5 card for something different because I always tend to stick to 8 x 8 or 6 x 6 which can get a little boring.

 



I coloured the image with my Promarkers and added some snowflakes using my MS punch.  The ribbon is from my stash along with the brown button.

I loved making the card because it was nice to do something different from my usual cute cards and it was a nice change to get a different end result rather than the same old, same old!

I am off now to have dinner and then get my feet up and watch some TV - I can't miss Downton Abbey or Homeland so no colouring for me tonight!

Love,

Monster Mash

Hello,

I know that it has been a very long time since I blogged; however things have been a little hectic for me.  I am now 30 weeks pregnant and since the last time I blogged I have been in hospital and had one thing after another happen so its been a rough road so far.  I always knew it would be, but not long now so I am just trying to hang in there.  I have 4 weeks left at work so I am on a massive count down till I finish because I am so tired.

Anyway, onto a card that I have recently made using one of the new Kenny K digis.  I just love this one because it is so fun!

Excuse the very poor pictures but its been a long time so I am a little out of touch I am afraid.  The papers are from Bearly Mine and are digis which my Auntie Chanelle told me about - they are fab so I thought I would give them a go.  The spider web border is my beloved new MS punch which my Mum ordered for me.  I love it!

I have used the usual stickles and my trusty spiders from the Asda which I have had for my Halloween cards for the last 2 years.

Hopefully it won't be long till the next time I blog, but at the moment I am crafting alot but I have very little time to blog with work and trying to sort the house out for the baby.  On a plus side Martin has finished the nursery which we are both very proud of so I may pop back with some pictures when the finishing touches are done!

Love,

Hello and more baby news x

Hi All

Another long break since my last post, but I have just been soo busy!  I am now off work for 2 whole weeks to relax with my Mum and craft.  Martin is off the second week to get the nursery finished (hopefully!).

The last few weeks have just flown by and I have had lots of card orders and projects to make which have kept me busy when I am not at work.

Yesterday was my 20 week scan and I found out that I am having a little GIRL, a new crafty buddy for myself!!!  We are very excited and happy, but it was also a surprise because everyone thought I was having a little boy.

Here she is: -

I am back at the Hospital next week for another scan and measurements because they couldn't get them all yesterday because of her position.

Over the next few weeks I want to get lots of crafting done and get organised with orders and Christmas cards....... we will see if I do!!!!!

I have 8 cards to make for tomorrow ready for my Mum to take to work her so I need to get busy colouring!

Love Kerry xxx

Baby News x

Hi Everyone, Well here is the reason I have been a little hit and miss with my blogging..............

Baby Marper is due 8th December 2012!!!! I have had a rough few weeks with it but I am feeling much better now that I have had my 12 week scan. I am 13 weeks and very excited. I will hopefully be back with some crafting very soon! Love, Kerry xxx

Hello Everyone, First of all I just wanted to say a big sorry for not being around or dropping by my favourite blogs. I have been poorly and off for the last couple of weeks but I am feeling much better now - fingers crossed! Right, I need to say two very big THANK YOUS and the first one is to my fantastic Auntie who does a lot of nice things for me when it comes to the hobby that we both love and do together, but this week she has gone that bit further. You may have seen my last post whereby I was on the brink of ditching my blog because I had made a real mess of clicking buttons that I didn't know what they did. Big mistake because I lost everything. I had no idea how to get it back and was so frustrated with it. My Auntie Chanelle offered to take a look so she logged in and managed to fix it for me. Later in the week I then recieved an email while I was at work to say that the fairies had been to my blog and this is what I saw. How amazing is this???? LOVE IT! Auntie Chanelle had spoken with her Friend in Australia and this is what she had arranged for me! I was soo touched and she knows how happy I am about this. Secondly, I want to thank the lovely lady, Lynn that made this for me. It's beautiful and I love it - thank you soo much! Right thats it from me tonight, but I went to the Craft Box last night and treated myself to a few new maggies so hopefully I will be back tomorrow with a card. Ps - sorry if there is spelling mistakes, but I can't work out where the spellcheck is on the new layout - LOL Love, Kerry XXX

Help - So annoyed xx

Hello Can anyone help me with this new blogger layout???? I have clicked a button saying that I wanted to revert back to the old blogger (that wasn't the exact wording but I can't remember) and I have ended up with this horrible layout!! I can't see my followers or my favourite blogs. I want my old blog back and I just wondered if anyone knew how to get it?? If not, I am on the brink of just deleting my blog because I really ate this new layout!!! Love Kerry xxx
