You're the Bestest

I love the name of this Penny Black stamp. This card is for my mum and dad to send to my auntie. She's a lovely lady so this stamp was perfect for her.

I can't remember who the paper is from.

Here's the card that I made for her using my new Magnolia Tilda stamp. I don't like most of the new ones but this one caught my eye so I had to have it LOL



Both cards use Penny Black sentiment stamps. The papers are from the Stampin' Up Certainly Celery and Close to Cocoa Designer collections.

New homes

Before I went on holiday, I made 2 New Home cards. Both cards use this gorgeous Penny Black mouse stamp and Stampin Up stamps, ribbons and papers.

This one is for a very good friend and her family who've has just moved into their new house in Australia. Me jealous ---- of course LOL!


This one is for my cousin and his wife. They moved from Eastbourne to Southampton in July so I was a bit late with the card. They aren't just celebrating moving house though - my cousin started a new job (which he was head hunted for) and they're expecting their first baby in the next few months :o) So the SU sentiment was perfect !

Zante :o)

Well it's been a week since my last post as I've been away on the Greek island of Zante.

The weather was fab which made flying into Luton a bit of a shock yesterday. It wasn't nice to go from the 36degC heat of Zante to the 15degC chill and hail storms at Luton airport.

Yummy Elzybells

I've always loved Elzybells stamps but found that they were a little bit on the large side for cards. Well, that's all changed as they now do smaller stamps that are perfect for cards.

You can also get the stamps unmounted so they're very easy to store ;o)

Pink Girl

I loved making this card for my cousin's daughter. She'll be 10 at the end of the month and loves pink !!!

Pink and brown - another fave colour combo

Silver Wedding Anniversary

It's really busy at work again so I've had to make a point of sitting down and making a card.

I made this one for a special lady and her fab OH.



My yummy new Stampin Up goodies with another one of my fave colour combo's - aqua and brown.

Pink Glitter Gals Challenge

It was my teams (the fantastic Pink Glitter Gals) turn to set the Weekly Challenge over on UKScrappers.

What we came up with was:

1. Use our chosen Becky Fleck round page map
2. Celebration or Achievement theme
3. 5 of something
4. Use pink and glitter

We really enjoyed setting the challenge. 5 of us did our example pages on our Center Parcs weekend.

and here's my page :o)


Very proud of my niece for getting through having braces. She had them for just over 18 months and she really persevered - including having implants in her gums - ouch!
