Hi my friends
I thought I would let you know the latest computer scam.
I had an automated phone call yesterday saying that my internet will cease in 24 hours and my personal data had been violated, and by several people world wide and to get help now and to stop this happening in the future, press 1 to talk to an agent.
I just put the phone down, but it worried me so I rang Paul and he said it's scam you did the right thing BUT it doesn't end there. 24 hours later my computer would not allow me to open any windows, and within a few seconds two notifications came up telling me that Firefox had crashed and to put in my email address and they would notify me when Firefox was fixed. This time I rang Craig and I read it out to him and he said to click the little red cross, top right to close them, then close your computer down and start again. I did that and it's fine.
I thought I would let you know as this scam goes over a 24 hours. When I first saw this this morning I doubted that yesterday's call wasn't a scam. I'm not that good with computers but I am lucky to have two people in the family that are.
I hope you don't think I'm teaching you to suck eggs, but if I hadn't spoken to Craig today I really was tempted to press for help.

Phoenix's Christening Card
Hello my Friends
Hope you are all well
As promised I have put The Christening card on for you to see. I was so fed up after making this card and the amount of patterns my cutting plate, rubber mat and the plastic shim put on the last topper I felt that I had to emboss it. I really wanted it very plain. Then when making the large frame I had patterns on that too, so I tried other plates from other machines and finally got a clean one. After I finished the card I couldn't for the life of me remember what plates I had used so I went on line and ordered new ones for the Gemini, so in future it won't take so long to make a card or use so much card as I did, but message to self when new plates arrive "check you have the dies face down on the cutting mat".
Really must get a new camera too and better lighting. I took so many pictures but these were the best of the bunch. Some night shots, some daytime shots and some without lighting but I think there are enough to get an idea of what the card looks like.
Well most decorations are up. My sister helped me decorate under the large garden umbrella so if it's nice weather people can go outside. I woke this morning to find the umbrella had been pulled out of the patio. It's so heavy that Paul screwed it into the patio but the wind was so strong over night it ripped the screws out and blew it onto the fence which is covered with beautiful yellow Clematis, luckily not too much damage to the Clematis, fence or umbrella, but the weather at the moment for Sunday is sunshine & showers, so smaller umbrella's maybe needed.
Decoration pics to follow.
Here Goes!
Hope you like it!
See you soon.

Another Baby Card
Hi Blog Friends
It's another baby card today. My friend rang me to say that her son & his wife's baby has arrived so I really needed to get on and make a card. I love making the eclipse card, so that's what I made for Anne's grandson Jack.
The next card I hope to finish within the next week is Phoenix's Christening card which part of it will also be an eclipse card.
Most of the food for the Christening is in the freezer, just last minute fresh items to purchase. Next weekend I'm hoping to put up all the indoor bunting and decorations, I'll take photo's and post them before the event if you would like to see them as it will be manic to take any on the day.
Anyway here goes for Jack's card
Hope you like it. Hope to see you again soon.
