What Do You Think?

Hello

It's Friday and it's the start of the October school holiday here.

This time last year Craig was getting ready to go to London with the school! What a quick year that's been.

Perhaps that's what today's card is thinking about? Or not? Who can say?

Sweet Stampin' Challenge

Morning all, it's Saturday and that means it's time for a new challenge at Sweet Stampin'.

This week our theme is

Distressing

Not actually sure if it refers to the card or the making of the card, which I found very distressing. This card, was in fact, in the bin - where I threw it in a fit of pique cos I decided I couldn't do the theme at all!

Anyway, here it is.

Grungy Christmas Stamp - LotV
Stag Set - Tim Holtz for Sizzix
Tree - Sweet Poppy

Sisterly Love

Morning.

It's Friday and this time next week the boys will have started their October week holidays. Seriously, where is the time going?!

This is a card I made for my friend's daughter to give her sister. I've used the Faery Ink Sisterly Love stamp. When I saw this I thought it was absolutely perfect, especially with the bow as the girls are known to wear these daft JoJo bows. You know the ones, they look like small satellites. Anyway the card went down well with both sisters so that's a bonus!

Bubbles!

Morning.

Are you feeling bubbly? Yeah, me neither. It's Monday!

This is a birthday card I made for a friend to give her husband. I used the LOTV Congratulations set - think if I'd thought about it properly I would have made one of them bigger and the 40 smaller. Never mind though!
