House Mouse - A Tribute to Joanne
who died suddenly this week her family posted the following on her blog -
I personally will miss her blond, bubbly hair, her wonderful smile and the lovely comments she left on my blog.
I used Basic Grey Wassail papers, coloured the image in watercolours. The sentiment is Aud designs and ribbon and the rest from stash.

Papertake Weekly & Stamp with Sarah Kay
Stamp with Sarah Kay is do anything you like providing you use a Stampavie image. Since I got this stamp by Sarah Kay I've fancied doing something with a 'vintage' look with it as the image itself has a vintage feel. The BP is core-dinations on top of which I used some newpaper paper which I have had forever. I used the snowflake folder on white and mounted the image onto this.
Double Dutch challenge - Trim the Tree
I made this 'bauble' last week but couldn't post it as I wanted to photograph actually hanging on my tree, which is black, silver and white. I only decorated last night, hence the delay in posting, which was a little silly as you can't see the rest of the tree anyway.

I've been tagged
1. I was born under the sign of Pisces but hate water (well cold water anyway). It's primarily water over my head, have to be forced to take a shower but will stay in a bath forever.
2. My parents christened me Heather Valerie, but called me Val. All official bodies, ie. shcools, doctors, passport peoples etc. call me Heather (which I prefer and use anyway) but family always call me Val - is it any wonder I'm crazy, mixed-up confused person?
3. I have a brilliant sense of direction - I always know which direction I want to be in, but always struggle to get there, especially when driving. I've been lost in every country I've driven in - Fuertaventura, Germany, Belgium, Kenya and believe it or not I still get lost in Blackburn and I've lived here for 30 years.
4. My daughter is forever telling me to 'grow-up' Why? to quote a friend - I just act my shoe size not my age.
I'm stuck here for the moment so will have to come back to this.
