Birthday Wishes for my best friend

Hi all,
Well today is my best friends 26th birthday. So what a perfect time for me to show you the card I made her. Now I must admit that I did copy the design out of the Making Cards magazine (May edition) and also used their free papers but this was a design that I could not resist for Michelle. She is absolutely obsessed with the 'Keep Calm' brand. She even has a custard jug with Keep Calm and Eat Custard. (this is a big thing for Michelle as she hated custard for years, but now has realised that she does like it and is now addicted) lol.
She will hate me for telling you all this but hey ho! lol

Here is a pic of the card. I absolutely love it.

Anyways must get going, lunch at work is almost over. Roll on 5 o'clock. Going to have my hair done then on to meet Michelle to go to the cinema and then out to Harvester tomorrow night. Yum Yum.

Thanks for looking.

Bet you thought I'd got lost

Hi readers,
Sorry for the long wait between posts. Things have been hectic and I haven't had much time to craft but here is a card I made for a colleagues mums birthday. I'm really happy with it.

I have been sorting out our spare room and have started decorating it. It's going to become my craft room. Hopefully when it's sorted I will be more inspired to craft so will have lots more to show you in the coming months.

Thanks again for reading.

Until next time.

Birthday card for a special friend

Hi all,

This is a card that I made last night for a special friend of mine whose birthday it is next month.

I am absolutely over the moon with it as I have actually coloured in the picture myself with my Spectrum Noir pens. The image is from flower soft and the papers and flowers are from one of their capsule collections.

I love it and hope you do too.

Thanks for looking.

Long time, no blogging!!!

Hi all,

Sorry it's been a long time since my last blog. Life has been hectic to say the least. I've been away with my 2 girlfriends to a log cabin near Sudbury, Derbyshire. It was a really nice break (the hot tub was amazing) but you do learn a lot about people when you spend 3 solid days hauled up in a log cabin together! lol!

Anyway, will get on with my post. I've been forgetting to take pics of my cards as they are completed so I had a night of picture taking of the cards I've made over the past couple of weeks and here they are.

My photography is something to be improved on (lol). Will try to get better. Hope you like.

Hi all.
This is a card that I made last night to enter into C.R.A.F.T. Challenge Sketch Challenge.

This is the sketch I had to follow.

I made this 8"x8" card using free NitWit papers and toppers that came with my recent copy of Simply Homemade.

I hope you all like.
