Wish Fairy

Feeling tired and weary today after three nights of netball and a night of strength and conditioning! Only half a day left at work for this week - thank goodness.

My card today is made with a digital stamp by Pollycraft, coloured with ProMarkers. The papers are from my stash. The punch is the Monarch Butterfly by Martha Stewart.

8th Wedding Anniversary

It is our 8th Wedding Anniversary on Monday, 6th February. I can't believe where the time has gone. We have been together for 14 years next week!!! I am still very much in love with my husband and he is the best thing that ever happened to me (apart from my son of course!!).

I made my card for Paul this week. I hope he likes it!!


The digi stamp is a freebie from Beyond the Fringe Crafts with the addition of the writing done in MS Word.

Happy Birthday Millie!

My friend, Millie, is 21 in a couple of weeks so my card this week is for her. She is having a "black and white cocktail" party so really looking forward to that!



My image is "Thomas - Champagne" by Lili of the Valley. The paper is some lovely handmade paper given to me by a friend whose dad owns a stationery company (lucky me!!) and the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.

New Year, New Me!

Happy New Year!!

I know it's a bit late but I've been busy at work and getting back to my netball and fitness.

Had my first strength and conditioning class (along with around 40 under 19s!!!) last Wednesday. I couldn't even bend down to pick up my shoes Thursday and Friday!!!! By the end of the 8 week course, I will be fit and skinny (hopefully!!!). At least I'll be able to run better to umpire and play netball though!!!

Anyway, back to my card making. I haven't made many yet this year.

I have made this card for one of my hairdressing customers who is getting married on 4 February 2012 after being with her partner for over 25 years!! Wow! I would like to enter it into the CAS-ual Fridays CFC36 Challenge "Penguin Suit", black and white only.
