Retirement Card and More....

I can't believe how many cards I have made and not posted. This is one I made a few weeks back, a lady in my hubby's office asked me to, it's a retirement card for her boss who is a barrister and I tried so hard to make a themed one but just couldn't find anything suitable, so went with my ever reliable flight of the butterfly set (it never fails.)



And this one I made last August when my cousin and his wife had their first baby.



And yes there's more....lol



This little set I made to send some ATC's to one of my blogging buddies Liz. The little box which is the perfect size for ATC's is a free download from Lauren Meaders new website, sorry I can't remember what it's called but you will find it through her blog. Well won't bore you will any more just yet...lol

Thanks for looking

Spring Clean!

No not the house....lol Over at A Passion for Papertrey the challenge is to spring clean your craft stash and make a card using something you bought because you soooo needed it but after a year of buying it....lol you still haven't used it! (sound familiar?) Well that's exactly what I did with this stamp set and I think I've only used it now to participate in the challenge...lol, so here's my card and my fingers are crossed!

Nappy Cake!

I'm absolutely delighted with this little creation, I have seen so many made by various people and have been dying to have ago, so when my cousin became a dad for the first time there was a pretty good excuse to make one. They really are so easy to do and yet look so fab! I did actually get it all packaged up by my local florist but forgot to take a photo (story of my life....lol).




Thanks for stopping by, I'm truly grateful:)

Thank you!

Just thought I'd share these with you, they are my little thank you's to the ladies in my stampin'up Stampers 8 club (couldn't quite manage 10....lol) just to say how much I appreciate their commitment and orders of course....lol. Inside instead of choccies I thought it would be nice if I put some SU stamps, so I had a few spare sets of SAB stamps and split them between the ladies so everyone got to enjoy them. When they opened them they just expected chocolates and were delighted to find stamps instead.



Thank you ladies!

Chat, Craft & Cakes....

....well what more could girls ask for?.....lol Had another fab girly night with Nicci sadly Keren couldn't make it this time but not to worry because there will be plenty more and our numbers are growing as both Nicci and Keren are now SU mummies and have downline's who will also be joining us:) (yay!) So amongst the chatting and cake eating we did actually manage to make a few little projects (surprisingly...lol).

This is Nicci's card, unfortunately I couldn't quite get the hang of the flower and so I decided to make a ribbon rose instead but if you pop over to Nicci's blog you will see how it should really look (her flowers are much better).



And these are the two I contributed, I am just so in love with flight of the butterfly.




Sorry for the lack of posting lately, will try to be a better blogger:)

TTFN
