Morning all and I need to start with an explanation to my teamies at Allsorts where Ellie is our host this week as well as those at Penny Black and More, Stamping Sensations and Chocolate Baroque.
I had scheduled the mid way posts at PB&M and SS as well as my CB one for yesterday, but alas I didn't get as far as my own blog as I've been back and forth to doctors and hospital all week and the promise of more of the same next week. So this post is something of a cobble up of everything and I will keep the blurb shorty and sweet.
The tag at the top is one of my Chocolate Baroque pieces as is the orange and teal one at the bottom on the post.
More Autumnal leaves and colours at Stamping Sensations using all Penny Black stamps.
Have a good weekend everyone and I might even get time in mine to get some blog visiting done!
Oh Brenda, sorry to hear that once again you need to visit the NHS, and make the most of the taxes you have paid over the years. Do hope your body settles down and behaves soon.
ReplyDeleteLoving your cards. As ever they are gorgeous!! I do admire that you get so much done with all the 'other stuff' going on for you.
Blessings and prayers
Maxine
Hope that things are going well with you. Love these creations, the one with the leaves are stunning. Sending hugs. Anesha

Lovely makes, Brenda. I particularly like your inky tag. I obviously have a lot of catching up to do on your blog. Anyway, I hope things will settle down for you soon. DH's recent CT scan and blood test results were all excellent and he doesn't need another check-up until January.
ReplyDeleteHave a good weekend!

Sorry to hear youve not been too good again Brenda....you still managed to produce such gorgeous cards...I think for many of us crafting is a relief from pain as we go into our own little world...hope you feel better soon
ReplyDeleteAnne
Lovely cards again Brenda, I am particularly fond of the autumnal leaves and "cherish yesterday" sentiment. I hope your visits go well this week and that the outcome is a good one xx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful as ever Brenda and I love the tag as the butterflies really pop. xx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful selection Brenda. Loving the colours in that tag, so soft and pretty.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful selection of Cards Brenda. I love them all, but the leaves are probably my favourite (I know I am predictable, lol) Hope your hospital visits prove helpful. I will be thinking of you and if there is anything I can help with please let me know xxx
ReplyDeleteAnother fabulous collection of cards, great images, colours and backgrounds. MY favourite is the last one.
ReplyDeleteKath x
Each one is simply amazing, Brenda. Please take care of yourself. You will be in my prayers. Hugs, my friend.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about all your medical visits. Fab collection of cards as usual
ReplyDeleteAll beautiful creations Brenda but I especially like the butterfly tag. The background is fabulous and co-ordinates beautifully with butterflies. They look ready to fly off x
ReplyDeleteLovely creatiions Brenda and your PB pink one is really pretty. Hope that all is going well with your hospital and doctors appointments. I managed to take a tumble in Cornwall and ended up at the Bodmin minor injuries unit! I don't bounce like I used to! They think that I may have cracked a rib (really painful) - it just needs time and rest to heal. xxxx
ReplyDeletegorgeous tag and beautiful cards Brenda and feel better wishes.
ReplyDeleteGr Karin
4 wonderful cards, hope all your appointments go well xx
ReplyDeleteCiao Brenda, mi dispiace molto che tu sia stata tutta la settimana impegnata con visite dai dottori e all'ospedale, e mi rattrista ancora di più sapere che anche la prossima settimana sarà così!! Spero che alla fine delle visite tutto sia chiaro e ci siano buone notizie per la tua salute!!
ReplyDeleteHo ammirato i tuoi lavori per CB sul loro blog, che meraviglie hai creato! Tutte così creative e mi piace tantissimo soprattutto la decorazione da appendere in bianco e oro, che non hai messo qui, mi ricorda i patterns di Klimt ed è perfetta per l'albero di Natale! Bellissima anche la tag con le farfalle, così dolce nei toni rosa-aracione!
La tua card in bianco e oro per Allsort è molto elegante e che bella poinsettia, così solare!! Bellissime anche le foglie della penultima card, mi pare ce tu abbia usato la tecnica dell'acqua spruzzata sul timbro inchiostrato... è una delle tecniche che voglio provare di nuovo.
Qui piove e c'è allerta per il meteo: è prevista molta pioggia tutta assieme. Domani scuole chiuse. Speriamo non ci siano danni.
Un abbraccio, a presto
Oh so sorry to hear that you are again feeling poorly and having trips to the hospital etc, sending healing wishes your way.
ReplyDeleteI had no problem visiting your blog this week, the gremlins must have up sticks and left :)
A fabulous collection of cards and the tag is so pretty too.
Lorraine
Hope things start to improve , just love all your creations x

ReplyDeleteBeautiful projects, Brenda! The butterfly tag is neat, but I really adore the gold poinsettia card!
ReplyDeleteWell, with all in one post it is a feast for the eyes! Love the tag; feels beautiful vintage and stil modern; great combination!
ReplyDeleteAnd the fine background on your last one gives it so much depth; looks great! Hope you will get a bit better from all the trips to the hospital! Sending positive energy for you... Hugs, Gerrina

Hi, Brenda - I know you don't feel like a strong hero, but always, you inspire me to greater heights through your example. I hate that you're having to "visit" the hospital so frequently, and having lots of work done there. But I am grateful you have competent medical practitioners helping you, and that you have strength to persevere. My thoughts and best wishes are being sent your way. In the meantime, your cards are all lovely with so many techniques and styles! But my favorite is your butterfly tag. Something about the pink in the middle of the butterfly and under it in the tag base that speaks to my heart. I will be casing your technique. It's lovely! Please know I am thinking of you fondly. hugs, de
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous Brenda, that pink butterfly tag is so pretty, I love it!
ReplyDeleteHappy crafting
Tracy x
WOW, all are wonderful!
