We have two prizes this week, the first three images of the winners choice from Ruth Hamilton Design. Ruth has just designed some new Christmas images which will be available in her store from Monday. Some of the Design Team are giving you a sneak peek, take a look below.

Ruth Hamilton Design: I have enjoyed crafting all my life and have been involved in the craft industry for several years. I started drawing images to use on cards for my own use and then went on to design some stamps for a well known craft company.I am an avid lover of nature so most of my drawings are of flowers, birds and animals. Even when I can’t travel I love spending time in the garden, growing plants and looking after them. I hope you enjoy colouring my digi images, I have several YouTube videos here.

The second prize is a lovely bundle of goodies.

CHRISTMAS TIME

My first DT card is for

The theme is 

CHRISTMAS

There are some lovely prizes to be won just pop over to the Challenge Blog as I am unable to upload them for some reason.

 For my card I have used a stamp From Woodware they are a big favourite of mine as the quality of their stamps is top notch.

I used a 6" x 6" scalloped card base, I cut the front off at an angle, the papers are actually card stock, I used a frame die for the backing of the stamp which is quite big and comes with the sentiment, I coloured the image with markers then cut it out and adhered it 3d style with silicone glue. I also added a small due cut bow.

we would love to see you I can also recommend visiting the other DT as their work is outstanding as always 

I want to thank you all for your comments on my previous post I really appreciate you all taking time out to visit and the comments I received showed me that I am not alone in the struggle with the current situation with the medical profession.  

I have thought so much about how I can try to get things changed but unfortunately I don't think there is anything I can do except badger the Doctors for an improved service for both my brother and my dearest mum.

Since the episode last week I am feeling quite low I think that I had forgotten how vulnerable my mum is, I have buried my head in the sand thinking that she is going to be with me forever, I know that sometimes I live in a fantasy world, but with my constant fight with depression it is a world much more loving and peaceful than the real one. 

Hugs to all, stay safe I will see you all soon, I am off to mums to cook the Sunday lunch, we are having Chicken today something that my Jess will enjoy, lol.

hugs

Lolo xx
