Awww! One of my Mum's good friends gave me a very generous 'Welcome to your new home' present - it was SO generous of her, I just had to say a HUGE thank you, so I created this (rather late) last night to send to her to let her know my appreciation. I used the… Continue reading New home thank you

Bunting Birthday Card #2
I must admit to being in a bit of a rush today because I have to get to a friend of the family's 65th birthday party in Kent. And because I'm in a bit of a rush I decided to go for a tried and tested card idea. Having already created a Bunting Birthday card… Continue reading Bunting Birthday Card #2
Tardis Card
Firstly: Happy World Cardmaking Day!! Tomorrow will be a friend's birthday & I'm going to his birthday drinks this evening. He is a huge fan of Doctor Who, so I had to make a Whovian card! Ages ago I saw this Tardis card pattern on Splitcoast Stampers and wanted to make it for a boys… Continue reading Tardis Card
Moulin Rouge Birthday Card!
Today is a colleague's birthday and he was asked what he wanted to do for his birthday & he (like most men) said "dunno"... For whatever reason he was watching the Moulin Rouge 'Lady Marmalade' cover version & he said "I'd love it if I could have a party where all the girls dressed like… Continue reading Moulin Rouge Birthday Card!
Flowers Birthday Card

This Fairy Godmother lives in a lovely appartment with her two cats and she loves flowers and has an allotment. I wanted to create a card for… Continue reading Flowers Birthday Card

I love the impact a black card has - not the first colour you would reach for for a birthday card, right? But… Continue reading Birthday Card for my Step Sister

5th Birthday Card
My youngest niece had her 5th birthday this week and there was a family birthday party yesterday (it was also her granddad's birthday this week too!) Everyone had a lovely time. I took these photos of the card at the party because I had forgotten to take one earlier! I used the Whimsy Stamps 'Mystic'… Continue reading 5th Birthday Card
Birthday Present Tag
Eeek! It's my Step Dad's birthday tomorrow and his present only arrived today! He has a share of a Narrow Boat and so I thought it would be really nice to get him something to remind him of his boat, so I got this pitcher from Black Country Metalworks. Because the pitcher is a bit… Continue reading Birthday Present Tag
