City Crafter and HAPPY BIRTHDAY KIRSTY!!!!

Hello ...
Before I get onto my City Crafter project - I want to say 
Happy Birthday Kirsty!!!
Yes our lovely Kirsty creator of CCCB is celebrating her birthday today!
Kirsty you are AMAZING!!!
You are a kind, caring, considerate beautiful lady and a wonderful friend 
 I wish you every happiness today and always ... I am blessed to have you in my life

Here's the card I made for Kirsty


The lady loves Paris


... and she likes it when I use pink


Have a beautiful day my dear friend


Hop over to the CCCB blog later today to check out the rest of the tributes to Kirsty and please leave her a comment

The lovely Charlene is hosting for us this week and her theme is 
"For The Love Of Burlap"


The challenge is simply to use burlap somewhere on your project ...

Our Guest Designer this week is Dora from the Netherlands ... click the link to visit her lovely blog
And don't forget to visit the CCCB blog to check out the lovely projects from the other designers ...

My iPod is my best friend ... It travels everywhere with me and for the longest time I have been promising myself I'd make a little cover for it ... this was the perfect opportunity


This started life as a pouch for my sunglasses


I just cut it to the size I needed and stitched it and then set about decorating it


Now I can slip it in my bag and it's safe and pretty too!


I will also be entering this in the challenge at Lessology ... For The Love Of Fabric

Thanks so much for stopping by 
Have a beautiful Day

Oh my gosh your birthday card for Kirsty is outrageous Ros! Scrumptious flower and such pretty trims. The clock hands are really fun. She'll adore this! I love little stitched projects. Handmade is always so much cuter than store bought. ANYONE would love to have this as an accessory. Hugs!

What a beautiful Shabby Chic card. I know Kristy will love it in person too.

Fabulous job on your Ipod cover. I take mine to the gym every day. :)
