More from Ruby ...

 Hello Everyone,

Thank you so much for all the lovely messages I got from you on my last update. I am glad that you like to read my stories.

This is me waiting for my mum to get her shoes on .... again !! She's always running late and keeping me waiting when all I want to do is go and sniff about somewhere. 

This as s lovely morning and we are going to go to St Annes for a walk along the prom,

While we where there we met a lady and her dog sitting on a bench, in the sunshine,  and they sharing some toast. The lady gave me a little piece of it too.

My mum chatted to the lady for a while and then off we went. I looked for my duck friends but they weren't there today. 

Now here I am having a bit of a rest near one of the lakes we pass. There are no ducks on this one but there are sometimes swans.

They are very big and they frighten me  because they "Hiss" at me as I walk past. I like to do a large detour around them in case they chase me. 

I'm not frightened of water but I am frightened of swans.

It was home for breakfast after this and then later on we will go out again before we have tea. But only if it is not raining as my mum is a fair weather walker.  

Bye for now ...

Ruby xx

Winner


Hi Everybody,

Thanks for joining us yesterday on the Facebook Live and the launch of the new dies Festive Portals from Card Making Magic.  There where some lovely prizes to be win so congratulations  to you if you are one of them. Enjoy your prize.
 
The draw for yesterday’s “Give Away” has been done here as well.
 Now it’s not that the gifts have not been claimed it is because I have several of one magazine to offer you and rather than do it all in one week with five winners I would prefer to do the offer over five weeks and have one winner each week. 

So if it is not your name being shown today then have no fear I have more of this die set to give away, so keep adding your comments and your FULL NAME and it could be you next time.
Thank you for complying with this request but if you have t added your full name then maybe that is why your comment has not been added to the hat.

Today the name drawn from the hat is ….
Margaret Wilkie
Please would you email me your postal address to
christina@card-making-magic.com
and I will get it in the post to you straight away.
I hope you will enjoy playing with it and be sure to let me know that you have it safely.

More tomorrow …

Friday Freebie - Peony Perfect

Hi Everybody,

Here as promised is another chance for you to win  the Perfect Peony 2 piece Die Sets that was on offer a few weeks ago. 

It is a lovely set and many of you would have liked to win this.
 Well here's your chance again.

All you have to do is leave me your comment with your 
FULL NAME
and from those comments one name will be chosen as the winner.

Why do I need your full name ??? Because it saves any confusion when two or three people have the same first name.

So if your are not winning then maybe it's because you haven't added your full proper name . Not your nick name, or your initials , or your name and where you live ... no! no! Your FULL  PROPER NAME and then your comment will be entered into the draw. and maybe you will win

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

Leafy Decorative Corner

 Hi Everybody,

Here is the video that I promised you yesterday and I think this card is really special, and elegantly fits the wedding I have made it for.

The dies are available at Craft Stash and they make everything so easy to do as they do all the work for you. 

The video will show you how I made this and I hope you will enjoy watching the process. Get the kettle on before you view and relax as you watch.

It's not hard to make and you can dress it up as much or as little as you prefer. But if you have followed me for a while then you will know that there is no such things as "Less is More"
I like to dress my cards to the nines with flowers, ribbons and pearls ... though I must admit to not using ribbon on this occasion.

More tomorrow ...
