About Me

My photo
My name's Alison but for reasons too long to go into I'm known as Cockney Blonde or CB for short. I've been rubber stamping for several years but now spend most of my time either knitting or crocheting. However, with the advent of a New Year I have bitten the bullet and am tackling my usually hated pastime of sewing. I've even bought 'Sewing for Dummies' to guide me on my way. I've been with my hubby Dave for 24 years and between us we have 4 kids and 5 grandkids. We also have 2 cats and a dog, the latter features as my 'photo' image. I used to be able to blog daily but these days I struggle to blog weekly. Hopefully now we are settled into our new home in the country, I can get back to a daily (well almost) update from the room I now have to share with hubby. No more personal crafting space for me!!! Thanks to all the blogs and sites I follow for all your brilliant inspiration, and thank you to everyone who finds the time to comment on my blog.

Happy Birthday Sachmo

Okey Dokey here's another challenge creation from moi, this time I'm entering it into 3 challenges: Friday Sketchers week 90, Sunday Stampers #92 - theme Men, and Quixotic #15 - theme One for the Boys.

I've created the card for my son's respite carer who has a birthday next week and I've been challenge by DS to make him a birthday cake to take with him when he goes next weekend!!!

I'm sure the card is simpler, lol.

Hope you like it and the links for the challenges are below, x
