Good Morning Monday....MaybeThis Week Is Start Of Some Luck My Way

A New Week Hopefully The Strat of some Luck! We sure do need some !

Morning all ,Hope you all had a better weekend than i did!!!??and the weather was kind to you all.I sure will be glad to see the month of April behind us.To top the hurrendous week ,On saturday we found out my bank account had been cloned yes !What i cant beleive is the bank let a Debit Card process a 10p debit from our account without question .Well once that went through boy did they have a field day!...lol.After reporting and Cancelling my card ,The bank our at fault as they didnt Cancel mine which was used to take moneies out they cancelled my husbands card BY MISTAKE!!!.Oh Boy he wasnt happy!!!neither am i now!
So since Saturday neither of us can get to our bank account as now both cards are cancelled . So now both have to wait 7-10days for new cards.So after spending Saturday morning on the phone trying to sort the mess out we have now made big complaint and awaitng phone call this morning .I wonder why my mojo's disappeared..lol Stress....
Well my mojo isnt really back yet not surprised with all the stress ive been through past 3weeks!Anyways i did manage a card not pleased with it but it's a start.

This Tilda is from the recent release at Magnolia i have coloured with copics ,The design papers have to be my fav this year from Kaiser Craft.Flowers are Prima ,Pearls and gems again Kaiser Craft.The ribbon and sentiment from my stash.I then used Tattered Angel Glimmer Mist "Pearl"to give it some Sparkle n Shine.Im hoping this maybe the start of my mojo returning it has been over 4 weeks since i did any crafting .so it's had a well earned break...lol Anyways
I created this card would like to enter into the following Challenges:
Just Magnolia:Anything Goes

As you can see from the above piccy i have done a wee bit of crafting managed to colour 2 images in as im having to make a wedding card for friend.Thats far as it goes..lol Since coming back from hols think left mojo there!!!My carosel is nice and tidy for once best thing i ever bought wello actually hubby.Or should i say until i returned from dads to find something sat on my desk called a "Cricket Machine"yes he bought me Ciruit machine whilst i was away and put on my desk.So also on there you will be able to see the 4 free cartridges that came with it ,cd mat which as yet havent had time to play with.
In this piccy is my beloved comp screen which is attached to laptop behind .My wee little painted jar which my friend Tracy sent which i use all the time and pride place on my desk,and a pen always handy to have apen...lol


This piccy shows the tidy corner of my craft room all neat and co-ordinated how long for who knows?There you can see .My shelve for all my papers and card on the top i have jars of flowers colour co-ordinatede jars...Tesco £1.00 oh such expensive buy...!then all my Su Punches,well not all....oops have more in a draw.On the table below the paper rack you will see my containers with copics in just a few..lol......never have too many well thats what i tell myself anyway
.Small Plastic 4 draws bysides holds all my SU Inks.
On desk ontop of ciruit carts are:Two cards just recently received one from the lovely Penni with Ribbon and Flower swap from RAK forumnand the other from my dear friend Cheryl

OMG....this is the untidy bit which as yet ive not got round to sorting,and the floor but didnt really think youd be impressed with the floor.At moment cant see my sewing machine,bindit all,or cropadile as covered with bits i need to sort out.Hopefully by next wednesday they will be .
So have good nosey hope you enjoy and sorry for the above messy piccy....
