Today is the 1st anniversary of Ranger's passing!
Feeling very sad today. This time last year we were having the most terrible time, with 3 of our lovely dogs suffering from bone cancer. It still breaks my heart that dear Ranger only had 364 days with us.
We miss him so much, sleep tight little man xxx
Ranger's story is here. Tissues needed.

Paper scrapping
A very basic paper layout, my first since the hand op and I rather like it LOL.
Photo's are of Ben in his uniform ready for his first day at school.
Lucky and Mojo are off the the vets later and I'm hoping they will be get a clean bill of health.
Sadly we had to bury another one of our ex battery hens yesterday. She had been looking quite old and frail for several days so we were expecting it but I still sad about it. I'm so glad we decided to rescue the ex battery hens and have been able to give them 18 months of life as proper free ranging girlies. So only two left and they are no longer laying. I think we shall get some more, maybe in the spring.
Got 5 more Christmas cards to make today then that's another job done and dusted LOL.

SCD weekly challenge
Over at SCD they are continuing the anything goes challenge - and this weeks theme is Wings.
I had intended to do some proper crafting but blasted hand hurts like hell today, probably too much crafting Friday and Saturday so had to resort to digi again, which I do feel is a bit cheating but in all honesty takes just as long LOL.
So here is a card with fairies and their wings LOL.
Just to prove it's not all digi I made these key rings last week. Had another bash at the faux diotric, which is painting the chipboard with croco paint, then adding AI and then tripple embossing with UTEE.
I also have a layout almost finished from crop yesterday just needs a little something, not sure what yet and it's a proper paper LO LOL...

More digi
Where on earth does the week go, one minute it's Monday and then it's Friday. I never seem to get as much done as I think I will LOL.
Done a bit more on the mini album which is going to be all digi
and made a few presents but better keep them under wraps LOL.
Hounds are all well (touches wood) and my hand is sooo much better! not sure how it will stand up to crop tomorrow but as I've done no paper scrapping for at lest 6 weeks I am keento give it ago if I could only make a decision on photo and papers LOL. Guess if you have too long a break you lose the momentum.
Over at SCD this week the theme is wings so going to have a think about that.

SCD weekly challenge
This month over at SCD we can make anything we like again, but this time we've been given a subject to play with. This weeks theme is Houses chosen by Laura.
Well I had several idea's but in the end went digi as my hand is really sore, I think I may have over used it and am now paying the price BUT it is doing really well and all but a small area has healed and the stitches dissolved. Better behave this week as I'm going to crop on Saturday and need it to work LOL.
I do have a couple of other houses I've made in the past to show you as well.
First a little Christmas house made a few years back
and this little bird house I made for a friend who loves her bird boxes and was recovering from a serious op in hospital and wasn't allowed flowers.
Lucky got her knickers in a right twist over the fireworks lat night, despite having given her rescue remedy, the other 4 were much better than expected, just hope it won't be as bad tonight.

He slept!
Mojo slept last night and we slept LOL so today life seems a bit better! The little chap is off to the vets later to get his bandage changed etc and hopefully the no walks restrictions will be lifted pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
No scrapping with Dawn today, she's dumped me! but I have a few digi layouts to share. I'm sure I'll look back at these in a few months and think OMG they're awful but for now whilst I'm learning I am happy with them.
Off to put my thinking cap on for this weeks challenge over at SCD.

Woe is Mojo
On Tuesday evening whilst out on the final walk of the day Mojo slipped off the pavement and stuck his leg down a drain! really deep slice through the leg so yesterday he was at the vets having a general anaesthetic to have the leg stitched etc.
Eric collected him at 6pm and the poor little man wasn't happy! and then he cried all night and I mean all night, so very little sleep for us. Even worse he's allowed no walks at all until further notice, so when the others went out this morning without him all hell let loose. Of course Eric and I look like zombies and Mojo is now curled up asleep!
Lucky is looking much better, so the antibiotics are obviously working and 3 nights without leaking now.
Alfie is still on steroids for his unknown allergy which shows no signs of going.
With so many of them on pills and potions I've had to write out a list of what who and when LOL and as for insurance claim forms and vet appointments my poor tired head is spinning.
Hand is much better and today I had a shower without a bag so now it looks and smells clean LOL...still a few stitches to dissolve and scabs to go but well on the way now.
