Last one for March

Had a lovely afternoon today looking after Leon while Grandad took Mummy and Daddy shopping. As the weather was so lovely we went for a walk to the park and had a ride on the swings. Unfortunately I didn't have my camera but he loved the swings.

Here is my card for today. The last one for March. This was a very quick card. The backing paper is from Daisy and Dandelion I think, The flower is from my stash as is the backing card. The Forever friends image is a bought one. Quick but effective.

I am going away tomorrow for a few days so will not be blogging but will be back Friday.

Had a busy day today

My son and his girlfriend moved into their new flat today and we all helped them move. It started early this morning when hubby had to take them to the estate agents to sign the papers and and pay the 6 weeks rent required.

I went up with him to look after Leon as they didn't want to worry about him. He was very good and it was nice to see him again.

This afternoon Hubby was working but my other son, my friend and several of my son's friends moved them from their old place. The new flat is beautiful, newly refurbished and light and airy. A much better place for my grandson to live in.

Now to my card today. Another card for a March birthday which I made yesterday. The backing card is textured. The light paper is from Stampin Up, the flowery paper is from Kay & Company. Flower, ribbon and gems are all from my stash. I can't remember where I got the image from. Of course the greeting is from Craftwork cards.

A card for my niece.

Had a lovely day today with Leon. he is really coming on now and is getting quite a little character. He is up on his feet more than crawling now so it won't be long until he's walking!!

Here is my card for today. This is for my husband's niece who will be 5 next month. The papers are glittered and from Fuzzy Moon collection. Backing card is bazzill bling. Ribbon from my stash. The greeting is from Craftwork Cards. The image is from paper nation decoupage. The flower is from The Works.

Mother's Day Cards

I don't like Mother's day as I always think of my dear Mum who is no longer here but I do have a Mother in law that I have to make for and here is the card that I have made.

The card blank was from Kanban, a special offer that C&C had over Christmas. the backing paper is from Kay & Company. The decoupage flowers are from my topper box. It is mounted on card that has been cut with nesties. The braiding is from my stash and the greeting (although you can't really see it in the picture) is from Craftwork Cards.

Now on to March Birthdays's

Well I am now onto March's birthday's so I am doing well.

I have used a decoupage flower here from Imag-e-nation that I bought years ago and made up years ago. The backing paper is from Kay & Company, the pad that I got from Doncaster last year. The blue card, ribbon, bow and gems are all from my stash. The greeting is a stamp from Lily of the Valley.

Trying to get ahead of myself!

I am trying to get ahead of myself and make all the birthday and anniversary cards that I need to make for this year. Whether it will happen or not is another matter but here are the first 2. Still using my stash up. :-)

This card is using a decoupage topper that I had. Designer paper is from Stampin up (I think!). Can't remember where I got the decoupage sheet from. Card is Bazzill Bling and buttons are from my stash. The greeting is from Craftwork Cards.

This is a Kanban wobbler. These are so easy to do and great for kids birthdays. This is for my son's partner's daughter - my soon to be step granddaughter I suppose :-) who is 5 next week.

Thanks for reading.

I love this sketch...

I got the stuff for this card from Greta as she had a spare pack. I love the colour ways of this and I have done the card a bit different to the previous one. All I added to it was the think green ribbon from my stash and the greeting which I think came from a pack I bought from Craftwork Cards.
