Friday Fun day with Smiles.

 Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

Angela here again to show you what I've been up to this week.

I'm back to the Lincolnshire show this week and in the Flower tent.


I wontgo on with this for much longer but thought you might like to see these.


The combination of flowers and colours are gorgeous.


The pots are rather nice too.


Then I moved around a little.


This one reminded me a bit of the Flower Pot Men, if you remember them.
Great way to recycle some old stuff.


I guess you could say that the next collection is a little more 'Mixed Media' plants.


I have never seen this done before but it's interesting. 



The next collection are very artistically put together.






And a few oldies to finish with.


Beautifully cared for.




I think that's enough of that.

Most of this week was spent either visiting mum or trying to clear the rest of her stuff.


But I did get round to getting the fountain up and running.


And some gardening too.
Peas are coming along nicely.


Cauliflowers growing but no sign of flowers yet.


And last week Saturday was Craft and Chat club too.


You might recognise the lady stood at the back who is Jo Channon.


It was a lovely day.


We made two cards similar to the ones here.


And shrink plastic for the butterflies and flowers.

Just a few dog thoughts to finish.



It's a dog's life for sure.
Have a great weekend everyone and
 thanks for stopping by.

And if you would like some more smiles you just need to pop over to see what our other friends have been doing this week at Annie's for
"This Week's Smiles" and you can also share your  smiles too.

WOYWW - 734 - What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday.

 Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

Hi Workdesk friends. 
We are here for another Wednesday at the Workdesk and here is:
"What's on my Workdesk this Wednesday".


If you don't know what this is all about then please visit the
 
Stamping Ground, our host Julia will explain.


So here is my desk for today!


Not a lot to show you really, these are a couple of cards that we started at the Craft club on Saturday. The yellow one is not quite finished as we were using shrink plastic and I need to decorate the flowers though I quite like it just as it is.


I did make another card which was posted Monday using some of the new Kate crane stamps that I showed you last week.


I used the banners to decorate the card blank before layering everything on top.


If you want to see more about this then pop over to Monday's Post here:

It is my mum's 95th birthday today so you will have to forgive me if I don't get round to everyone until later but I will visit you all be sure of that.

So that's me done for today.

 Thanks for stopping by and hope you will pop over and join in the visits around the other desks.

 I'm off now to see what everyone else is up to 
before I need to leave.

Have a great woyww 
and 
happy crafting,

Masterboard Monday.

  Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

I am here today to show you a card made with this Masterboard:



This is another Retiform Masterboard copied from the original that I posted here last week:


The Banner, leaves and balloon dog stamps are by Kate Crane, the sentiments are by Hobby Art and the stitch stamps by Crescendoh.


I completed the card with black thread and Stickles Glitter Glue


and for a finishing touch I added the dog with the sentiment inside the card.

All done.

I would love to hear your comments.

Many thanks for stopping by and happy crafting,

Friday Fun day with Smiles.

 Welcome to all my new followers, hope you enjoy the journey.

Angela here again to show you what I've been up to this week.


Daisy is here to welcome you all. 
This seems to be her favourite sitting position at the moment that is when she's not laid down napping!


And here is Alfie doing just that.


The garden is looking tidy after the weeding and  new woodchip applied though I think we could do with some new plants.


Even the grass is looking a bit greener after all the rain we had.


This is Alfie glaring at me as I wasn't quick enough with his breakfast and he's shut in the conservatory which he doesn't like either.

My fun day this week has to be the Lincolnshire Show.
Hubby had a day off so that we could go though there were several phone calls from his team but they just had to get on with it I'm afraid.

So here goes:


It started off a bit cloudy but soon warmed up but with a gentle breeze which was nice as it's very open here and it's difficult to get any shade from the sun.


I popped into some of the tents to see what was going on.


This lady was drawing pictures of peoples pets.


These looked scrummy but I was good and went for a frozen yogurt instead.


It was nice to see the craft tents so busy.


I know Elizabeth will love these photos.


It's such a pleasure to see these and this one is so well looked after.


Not sure what this guy is meant to be but he's interesting.


And finally for today.

This is me sitting on a miniature steam train which is normally to be found in Cleethorpes.

I do have more photos to show you but I'm thinking it might be better to save those until next week as you can have too much of a good thing or so they say.

So I'll finish with Schnauzer thoughts.








Have a great weekend everyone and
 thanks for stopping by.

And if you would like some more smiles you just need to pop over to see what our other friends have been doing this week at Annie's for
