About Me

Welcome to my blog

I started this blog in April 2012 so I could join Challenges. I am now on some design teams. I hope you like my cards. I started stamping in 1995 but my cards are still mostly cute.
Thank you to those who have joined as followers and to those who comment.

Conjurer of Dreams - Sea Adventures reminder post

Conjurer of Dreams August challenge reminder post = Sea adventures
https://kimsconjurerofdreams.blogspot.com/2025/08/sea-adventures-with-granmargaret.html

I was just doing my design team cards ready for September when I remembered I hadn't posted my August cards which I was supposed to post on 13 August.

My arthritis and eyes have been much worse and then on Sunday 10th August I fell over my great grandson's little car face down onto the floor hitting my head and because of the arthritis pan in my arms and legs I couldn't get myself up.  My husband is not allowed to lift because of his heart.  Because I was on my face I couldn't press my Vital call alarm button that I wear around my neck so my grand daughter pressed the button next to the phone and they sent an ambulance to get me up.  Because I had hit my head they took me to the hospital,  The male nurses were lovely and saw me quickly and I was there about 4 hours while they tested my heart and I had a brain scan and chest and pelvis x-rays.   They said everything was okay but I am still in a lot of pain.

Details of my August cards as follows:

Card 1 was on my blog on 1 August
I used Blue glitter silk background, Mermaid Scales, Mermaid Quirky clipart, Ocean Creatures clipart
We are 3 sentiment

Card 2 for 13 August
Iridescent textures background, Sea quotes, Mystical Mermaids, Mermaid quirky clip art

Card 3 for 13 August

Underwater world, Mesmerizing mermaid clip art, Sea quotes, Ocean creatures, ocean treasures, Hammered Metal Background

Card 4 for 13 August
Ocean Breeze, Entwined mermaids, Sea Quotes.
