You're What?

Hello there!

Are you happy that the weekend is almost here? I am...It's been one of those weeks.

Admittedly the start of my week was a little upsetting for DH and I due to his daughter but then it turned into a busy and lovely week catching up with other family members and many of my friends.

It's like someone was watching over me and decided I needed to be reminded that I am loved and EVERYONE got in touch!

I lunched with one of my dearest friends on Wednesday - A few weeks prior she called to tell me that she was marrying her long time partner - I never saw that coming and I'm so happy for them!

Of course I had to make a card but an engagement card just didn't seem right so here's what I made

This is the inside  

I computer generated the sentiments and paired up some DP with a digital image

 

Polka dot Bella from Sassy Cheryl's   - Isn't she adorable! I love the look of surprise in her face

 

I seem to be obsessed with that little Memory Box mushroom but it just went so well here don't you think?

My sweet friend was so thrilled with her card that she commissioned me to make her Save the date cards and her wedding invitations!

To round of this week I am seeing yet another dear friend today but before I go I'd like to thank 

Just Us Girls 

for picking my card as Chic of The Week! I'm honoured! What a lovely week it turned out to be

Enjoy your day and take care

Easter Card

Hello!

Team Darlene is hosting the challenge over at Double D Challenge today and the challenge is Easter so I am adding my little card to the mix 

Another digital image coloured with copics

My card base is also done digitally using papers from Pink Petticoat which sadly is no longer open - I'm glad I got these papers when I could

  

Darlene's team have created lovely projects for this challenge ... Hop on over to the Blog and take  look ... It would be lovely if you linked up your Easter projects too.

I'm off to lunch again today with a very dear friend and I'm so looking forward to it

Have a great day

City Crafter 303

Hello and good morning friends

It's my turn to host the challenge at City Crafter this week

The theme is Going Green 

 Photo Credit

Spring is just around the corner and we want to see your projects using Green as your main colour

I love green... it's such a peaceful colour. Someone once told me that was the reason God created so much green on the earth...

 

My card is a whimsical scene featuring the little toadstools from the "Gnome for Christmas' set by Memory Box, cameo cut leaves and birds from memory box

I used copics to colour everything

 

My favourite sentiment stamps by MFT have been embossed and a few clear sequins by Pretty Pink Posh just finish of the card 

Our Guest Designer at CCCB this week is Veerle

 Please click the link to go visit her lovely blog and take a look at the creations by the rest of our team at the
 City Crafter Blog I hope you can join us this week


I would also like to enter my card at Try it on Tuesday where the theme is Nature

Have a beautiful day

1st Birthday

Hello everyone...

It's a beautiful Spring day here in Liverpool - Seeing the sun makes everyone feel happier and even the cats have ventured out today Lol!

This week my husband's other Grandson celebrates his 1st Birthday and here's the card I made for him

The image is a digital image from Here ... However, there was a lot of pink so I altered it in Photoshop to make it more boyish - I prefer the blue and greens

 

I also cut a circle where the original drawn balloon was and made a shaker balloon - The numbers were cut on my Cameo and the sentiment was computer generated

I'm entering this card at Just Us Girls where the challenge this week is Shaker cards

 

 I've had a lovely lunch today with my GF's - one of whom is celebrating her birthday and it was fun to catch up...

I hope your day is a good one ...

Till soon

Easter

Good Morning!

I've picked the word prompt today at 

Our Beautiful World

The prompt is Easter

It's only a few weeks away, quite early this year and a lovely time of year for so many reasons- A symbol of new beginnings even if you don't celebrate the religious side of Easter and it's Springtime

With daffodils and bunnies 

And of course Easter eggs and little chicks - These are for my Thursday group

They all symbolize new beginnings and I guess the friendships we've forged - I got this beautiful card the other day from my dear blog friend Greta

Isn't it pretty!

I was actually christened on Easter Sunday, a very long time ago lol!

This upcoming Easter Sunday my husband grandson is going to be christened but I'm not invited so I guess I'll stay home and eat chocolate...

We'd love you to share your Easter photos and stories with us at 

Our Beautiful World 

 this week ... hop on over to the blog and see what my friends are sharing 

Enjoy your day

Thursday Club

Hello...
It's a bright and beautiful morning here albeit still quite cold.

 I'm glad it's Friday... It's been a busy week for me and last night I was running my craft class at Thursday Club.
As you may know the people in my class are mentally and physically challenged so they can't piece together certain things - the projects have to be semi completed for them.
Here's what we did last night

 

It holds a candle (a battery one) and lights up the scene 

And they also made cards

 

As you can tell that's a lot of cutting and planning for me with a group of around 20 people.

I don't think I shared the owl treat holder we made as one of our Valentine projects so here it is

We filled them with sweets and also made a few cards

I've prepared their Easter crafts so for now I can finally get back to creating my own things, though I'm a little worn out right now Lol!

DH will be home tomorrow after spending time in Spain golfing. Alas it seems it was very cold there and I don't think he enjoyed his break.....I kind of enjoyed myself though..Hee hee

Have a beautiful day

Till soon
