Woohoo, it let me in!!!

I've been trying, from time to time (every few days) to get into this blog but blogger was having none of it. Have now reset the password AGAIN and been able to log in today, but who knows for how long?

Here's one of the two posters I made during the 24/7 prayer week in August. I wasn't involved in creating the display on a noticeboard in the church hall, our curate did that, but my two pics have centre stage - will try to get a photo of that later. Here's a collage - hope you like it.



Thanks for visiting :D

Making backgrounds

Hi, thanks for calling by. Really sorry about the very long silence. No excuse really, I just haven't got into the habit of posting here regularly yet.

Last week was a busy one at church. We had a week of continuous round the clock prayer called 24/7, taking shifts of an hour or more at a time in a specially set up prayer room in one of our church buildings. The atmosphere in that room was amazing, you felt soaked in prayer as soon as you went in and speaking to God about what was on our hearts seemed a lot easier than at home with all the distractions around.

Sorry, I can't get the links to work today.

There's a challenge running on Trimcraft at the moment to make a card without using designer backing papers. www.trimcraft.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=48&t=25859 I tried something new. As I was cutting a dead bloom off the lily I had for my birthday, I wondered if I could use the stamens (the bit in the middle that dyes everything it touches orange). Bundled them up in my fingers and made circular movements on cardstock for a random effect, then polished with a tissue and fixed with hairspray before later making into a card. What do you think?
