Today is my friend's birthday & I've popped his card and present through his door so I can share this with you now. He's always been very image conscious; well groomed and well dressed with shiny shoes. So I felt wishing him a stylish birthday would be a nice twist on the 'happy birthday' sentiment.… Continue reading Stylish Birthday Card

Mum’s Birthday Card and present
Friday will be my mother's birthday and she isn't very 'computer savvy' so I feel safe posting this before her birthday.

Grandmother’s 95th Birthday card
On Sunday it will be my Granny's 95th birthday, the card is in the post, so I thought I would share it with you.

I can't believe today is the First Birthday of one of my school friends' son! It seems like only yesterday that he was only a few weeks old when I first met him!

Niece’s 7th Birthday Card
My youngest Niece turns 7 today! How time flies!! I've seen so many cards using watercolour techniques that look amazing & I keep jealously thinking "hmmm, mine would never look that good - it would run everywhere and look aweful", but then I thought to myself - I have watercolour paper, water-based inks, paint brushes,… Continue reading Niece’s 7th Birthday Card

With Birthdays comes birthday money to spend on new crafty things!
