More birthday cards

I told you that the month of March was birthday central...

At the end of the month the 30th is my little sisters birthday - and seeing that she lives in Canada I need to post her card early so she gets it on time.

Saying that my sister believed that she needs to celebrate her birthday for a month and therefore using this theory i am not in a rush to post it to her!

If you are reading this happy birthday little sis!

Thank you to all

The past month I have been unable to drive, clean, cook, or do anything other than rest, and lay on the couch. For anyone that knows me, they would know that I would struggle with this for 1 day let alone for 4 weeks. I wanted to say thank you to a few friends who have done school drop off and pick ups, taking Lachlan to Karate and swimming lessons, cleaning our house every time they came over, doing our washing and hanging it out and in turn putting it all away. All of this was done without a thought and I didn't ask they would just come over and do stuff.So a big thank you to each of our friends who have helped and no matter what was needed they helpedSU Medallion StampSU Just Believe Stamp SetKaiser Craft Thank you stamp setMFT Dainty lace borderCuttlebug Dots embossing Folder SU French Script StampSU Just Believe Stamp SetBlue embossing powder Cuttlebug flourish Embossing folder

Another post - Caged Bird

I juat love the Caged Bird die from Tim Holtz. It can make a real simple card look amazing. I needed to make 6 birthday cards this month and it was so easy to make them with this die.This die is really easy to use when you don't want to put an age on a card.Caged Bird Die - Tim HoltzHappy Birthday Embossing Folder - CuttlebugHappiest Birthday Stamp - SU Apothecary Art 1of2

Long time between posts

It has been over 6 months since I last posted. Its been for a number of reasons - - Life - No computer that worked properly - Work - Holidays - Sickness and plenty of it - Christmas - Birthdays SO instead of boring you with the little scraping I have done, I am just gonna pretend that it never happened and start over. In the last week I have created 10 cards YES 10 cards !!!!! March in itself is a busy month with birthdays, but this year 2 beautiful babies where also born into the family in March and I wanted to also thank a few friends that have been amazing whilst I have been unable to do anything due to being sick. So over a week I have created a storm and it feels amazing to get back into it, especially since I am going away in a few weeks for a scrapbooking weekend away. The first birthday card I made was for one of my SIL - I will post the other 9 cards in the next day or so - I am still learning how to include photo's into my posts with my new computer (It has taken me over an hour to work out how to get this one into the post!!!

Baby Shower card

Over  the weekend I had some "ME" time and created a few cards and am still working on a present which I am hopefully completing tonight for a friend for a baby shower.

I have recently discovered challenges and I love that I can use a sketch, a colour combination as a guide.
