A year Has passed my father dear
But sadly you are no longer here
I miss you more than words can say

and have shed so many a tear

The day will come for us to once again say hello
I will be there besides you
my love still strong and true
to see you holding out your hand to me
and hold me close to take away my fear
To hear you speak my name once more
and wipe away my tear.

I love and Miss you Dad
rest in peace

kiss mum too...
your everloving daughter

Introducing Rosie

how are you all tonite....
its been a up and downy day emotionally again for me thought i was getting better but suppose as it fast approaching a year since i lost my dad...seems like last week ....and knowing that 5 months on it will be a yr since i lost my mum...where oh where did all the time go.....i seems like yesterday she left me .. but everyday she is still with me...i carry her inside of my heart which today for no perticular reason i have spent sobbing it out ... but im ok..it happens in places you wouldnt think.. asda or like the bank..feeling a proper numpty paying in a cheque..not a big one either... bursting into tears the minute i went to the counter....well there you go....my card i made this little munchkin a couple of days ago but she missed my photo shoot...so here she is another cutie from my images...isnt she a bonnie girl and introducing rosie well a name i think suits her...whatever her real name was ..she sure was a cutie..there has been controversay about using old portrait images....and maybe to some it seemed not right/proper way to use them in this way... but to me it is a priviledge a honour to use these images of past lives and to share a beautiful face with the world and hope i have added a teeny weeny bit of life and love back to her...i doubt anyone would ever use my ugly mug 100 years on !!! lol...i hope you like my cutie...i rather love her.....ttfn hugs xxx to you all.

Faith

Hiya...what have you all done to the weather lol!!!! gosh what a difference a day makes and i know good old British weather... MY Card well i got quite excited doing this card dunno why ..but i just did...i used the cuttle Swiss dots folder on the whole card...contrasting paterned paper on border i tore some old card a scrapped it over with blues and greens with my colour box inks...i found an old stamp with a lovely poem on and stamped a little bit off it as i wanted the emphasis on the words i hope you can see them ..they were *love is kind ,and envies no-one and faith....*..so off set the vintage cutie and edged her in the colours used on the back bit lol!!! used flowers from stash and edged the white large petals with again the same tones from my colour box inks ...added the bow..of course..and my leaf punch from l-em...(forgot what it stands for its a girl designers name lol!!!....)...so hey presto a card is born....i do hope you like her....hope your all well and will leave you to paddle my way to the shop...ttfn hugs xxxx

Olive Green

hello...do so hope your having a gorgeous day with this sunshiny day......been on my rounds and it makes all the difference when the suns out...i get a lift...not often do i get jobs that make me titter ...but today i must tell you *the lost teeth*....went to visit one of my 90yr old and she was in tears she couldn't remember where she had put her teeth...they had been searching all morning bless her...so the search was on..well no cupboard or draw was left un searched ..every where i looked i had her tell me *Ive already looked * and it certainly looked like the tooth fairy had nicked them where could they be....well as she was distressed i offered to make a pot of good old tea....and low and behold found the missing teeth in the biscuit barrel......to my relief.....and to hers...so as we sat munching custard creams lol!!!!!(a new packet though) we did have a giggle....who'd have thought false teeth would be that funny....good job she has a sense of humour....and she blamed her hubby as he says she eats to many biscuits and he hide them..don't think so...but it certainly turned a shift into a more memorable one......to my card not made this for any challenge..i just made it because i wanted to use my new roses & ribbon......used Anna griffin paper..border Punch from friskars and olive green ribbon from wild orchard crafts...i spent a fortune on new roses and ribbons..don't tell hubby will you our little secret...lol!!!!i have given her a name of olive...and isn't she a cutie...i have thousands of images and found her whiles having a browse...hope you might like her...my matting and layering could have been neater though and wished i had used ivory lace...but i must have used it all......never mind the charity box is filling up nicely....of to the weekly dash round the supermarket...well a stroll in my case me knees are still bothering me ...but hobble i will...ttfn hugs..........having trouble loading ..hope this works now....tut! tut!!! mr blogger
