Happy Birthday Isabelle

Happy 17th Birthday to my friend's daughter Isabelle - 

I remember when I was holding her hand to cross the road - now I'm picking her up from all night parties!!

Loved this image as soon as I saw it I knew it had Isabelle's name on it.......together with a Stampin Up DP  - I think it looks stunning.

Wishing you all a fantabulous weekend.

I sent it to John yesterday for our wedding anniversary - cute isn't it.

I paper pieced the umbrella and added a little bit of bling

Today is my wedding anniversary but John is away on business and I'll probably spend the morning in yoga and take Lewis to a drum lesson after school....ho hum what happened to the days of wining and dining.

'W.O.W. - White on White'

and my fantabulous image is Apple Tree

I have used Glossy Accents on the apples and Wink of Stella on the leaves but unfortunately you can't see this in the photo.

Spring too !

Hi all - a quick card from me again today.

I made this card for the CBS Challenge #10 - Spring

- the papers are from Pink Petticoat - very spring-like.

The image is called Design a tree and has so many uses I know 

it's going to be one of my favourites.

Thank you for stopping by and your lovely comments

Spring

Hi all - a quick card from me today.

I made this card for the All Dressed Up - Spring

- the papers are from Nitwits - I just love the colours.

The fimo flowers have been in my stash for so long but thought I would dust them 

down and use them on this card.

Hope you have enjoyed your Good Friday - and that you have a lovely long weekend.

Happy Birthday Maria

Just a quick post today to show you a card that I made for my friend....

I have had this stamp for as long as I can remember

 but this is the first time I have inked it up.

I teamed it up with some DP from Stampin Up and paper pieced the chair

 - added a little bit of bling and here you go.

Thank you for stopping by - hope you are having a nice weekend.

From All of Us

Something completely different from my usual today.

I recently bought a cover plate die from Lil Inkers and once I got it didn't have a clue what I'd do with it.....any how this is what I came up with after hours of surfing Pinterest !!

This is only half the cover die - I have used the other half on another card.

like it ??

Thanks for stopping by
