Happy holiday

Hello and sorry I've been away for so long ..
Summer holiday!!!!
We had a super holiday ~ a Baltic Cruise ~ loved every minute of it.



Here's the cruise ship ~ The Norwegian Jewel.







And here's one of the many super sunsets we saw.

But now the children are back at school and life is back to normal ....

Happy Days!

Happy 60th Mum

Here's a card I've created for a friend and neighbour. She wanted a card for her Mum who's going to be 60. She asked for flowers on the front, so I put together a little bunch, tied with some nice organza ribbon, painted a watercolour background to suit. Placed it on this funny see through film stuff, tore out some brown paper and stuck it on that. I added the flat backed pearly dots and edged the note tag with gold and brown. Hope she likes it.

Happy Summer!

Thank you everyone at school

Here are some cards done for my son's school... It's his last few days at middle school, my how time flies. So it's cards for all the staff, headmistress and the lovely ladies in the school kitchen, I love the rolling pin on that one. The chocolates look good enough to eat. The Lady from the school office loves choccies! I made the little blackboard with black card and some matches





. Happy summer! Here we come!

Thank you Teacher

This is one of two cards I'm doing for my Son's year six teachers. There's only a few weeks left before he finishes in the Junior school. Bless! Pretty pinky girly ... that covers it! I've just smudged out her name. Second one to follow.

Happy Days!

Not a card ....

Well naughty me .. I've been so busy, but not doing cards! This is a pot I've painted for a local school summer fair .. it's for a game I used to do at the scouts fete years and years ago when I was small. I did one for our children's christmas fair at their school a couple of years ago and it was a big hit. It came out again at the spring fair and another parent asked if I could do one for her school ... so here it is ... all you have to do, and it's easier said than done, is spoon as many marbles as you can into the hole, one handed in a minute ... it's a real giggle.

Happy Days

****** Make a wish *******

I'm really pleased with this card. We all really like teeny weeny things in our house and I found this tiny little bottle. I filled it up with glitter and put in on torn mulberry paper. I then dotted the glitter around the card and used my tiny pink stars too. It's for my ex niece who's 11 today. My children are going with their Father and his wife to visit my ex in-laws this bank holiday weekend because, actually, there are three generations all born on the same day .. my ex father in law, his son and his granddaughter all born on may 22nd .. how clever is that!!!

Happy Bank Holiday Weekend!

Baby Hannah

Ahhhh! A close family friend has just had her first child, a baby girl called Hannah ... I know Suzie's still a bit wobbly after losing a lot of blood but she's getting there.. so lots of love to you, and your new family.
This Picture is on torn mulberry paper, mounted on cream card with little cherub's punched out. I placed foam squares at the top end and stuck the bottom onto the mulberry paper to give it a bit of a tilt. There's a bit of pink ribbon saying it's a girl top and tailed by pink/ crystal glitter, all finished off by a pink ribbon on the top.
