Two For You And Swine Flu To xx

Yes, one of us has it and no doubt there will be more of us before the week is out. It was only a matter of time, and how apt for a pink pig!!!

But more of that in a sec.

It's a bit of a pic fest here today peeps cos I did 2 cards, so get comfy :)

Ay, it's time for another Papertake Weekly Challenge and this week it's one of the old Dawny P sketches - this one in fact ..

And our sponsor this week is the fabulous ....

Plus we have Liz as our very special guest and she has done a gorgeous card for us. And our girlies have, as always, created some stunning work to inspire you, so don't forget to check it out when you get a sec.

So this is my first card.

This image is from the Sweet Cheeks image stamps collection. I coloured it with my old PMs - ohh some of them are starting to go now, bless, so I guess a trip to Creative Pastimes is in order to replace the worn out ones lol xxx

And while I am there, I think I'd better get me some more Glamour Dust as well!!

The papers I used are from the Ice Cream Curls and Little Big Dots collections. Both very very gorgeous I think.

And I did a triple layer with the MS punch again.

The ribbon is from the warehouse I go to near here.

The sentiment was done on the computer and just cut out and stuck on.Easy peasy!!!

I thought I'd do a second card this week - well you know how I loves me PP stuff :)

And this little lady is one of my faves, although I haven't used her for a while and I forgot just how fabulous she is!!!

Of course, it's Hettie xxx

Now I have to confess that I did sort of nick the idea of the extended centre strip from Liz so I hope she doesn't mind. But I thought it was perfect for this card.

And once again, I coloured her (Hettie, not Liz natch lol xx) with the bad boys and sprinkled her with bling and sparkle!!

The flower was part of my Simon Says Stamp prize and the pearly brad is, I think, Making Memories ( note to Dawny - do not chuck the packet out until you've used them all, you ruddy dope!!)

The papers here are again Little Big Dots and also Big Fella - they aren't all just for the blokes!!! Fabulous aren't they

The ribbon is from the US - I will so cry when it runs out!!! And the pearls were from Creative Pastimes.

Ohhh yes, they do!!

And I should know lol xxx

I did this on the computer again - spot the Queen fan!!

And that's me cards.

Now, about this swine flu.

Daughter No 2 was sent home from work yesterday with it. Her friend came into contact with someone who had been in contact with someone who had it - if that makes sense.

She went to work on Monday and felt unwell and as she works for the NHS, they did the checks and then that little piggy cried wee wee wee, all the way home.

She has to stay away from all forms of human life for 5 days, but sadly, we do not count as human life. So she isn't staying away from us and no doubt we will probably be next.

To be fair, you are not that ill with it, or at least, she isn't - apparently regular flu is worse. I am getting a bit paranoid though cos I keep thinking that this headache I cannot seem to get rid of is the start of it.

I've been round the house with the good old Dettox anti-bac spray, spraying all the handles, phones etc and we are all over-killing the anti-bac hand gel.

We are hoping that Kyla doesn't get it - the kids version that is ie Little Swine Flu lol xxx Ohh if my Grandad was here now he would give me what for for saying that, but it makes me smile a bit!!!

So on that note, I'm offski. If I'm not back in a few days, you'll know that l'm sitting in me sty somewhere, feeling sorry for meself, with aching trotters and sniffing and snotting like a good 'un!!!

Hope everyone is well and hugs to all xxxx
