Happy Sautrday from me!

Hi all! My kids are now on half term, and I've taken a week off from work, so am now having a much needed break! Not too much on the agenda for next week, lots of doggy walks, tidy up the garden (weather permitting), might repaint my kitchen walls (got the paint, just need the inclination,lol) lots of games of Just Dance on the Wii and hopefully a whole lot of crafting time - actually I might be looking forward to getting back to work for a rest, lol!

Anyway here is a card I made a couple of weeks ago, it was a birthday card for Sandra, one of my lovely docrafts friends.

The image was donated (but I believe it comes from Wild Rose Studio, it is coloured with my promarkers, the lush and yummy backing paper was "liberated" from my mums craft stash, the sentiment is one of my own creations.

Just before I go, you may notice I've given myself yet another little bloggy makeover, from someone who works in a DIY store it is just as well I dont feel the need to change my wallpapers at home as much as I do here, lol!

Have a great weekend all xx

Today is my BLOGGIVERSARY!!!

Yep, a year ago to day I was faffing and fluffing around here - hmmm some things never change, lol! Only just noticed it as I was having a quick fiddle to see if I could sort my comment box out, and just clocked what the date was!

Bear with me folks, there will be a little bit of celebratory "candy" coming up soon!

seem to have a problem with my comments box??

ggrrrr - *shakes fist angrily at pc*. Dont quite know whats occuring, but will have a fiddle when I get in from work later, and see if I cant sort it - I would say if anyone can offer any solutions please comment, but..........ho hum!

thanks Hazel for drawing my attention to this, there was me thinking no-one loved me!

One Layer.....hmmmm not easy!

Really enjoyed making my last "clean & simple" card for the Less is More challenge, so I couldnt wait to get cracking on the next one. The theme this time is "one layer". Have to 'fess up, that I did find this really hard, torn between not wanting the card to look boring and plain, but still sticking with the C&S style. Hope i've not done too badly with this one. It was created using serif page plus s.e, printed and Mint coloured sticky pearls added to embellish.

Happy Valentines Day to you all!

To be honest, my hubby and I dont bother with the cards, flowers, choccies anymore, but for those that do, I hope you're having a romantic day!

One little card to share with you today, this image was "donated" a while ago, and I found it by chance, this weekend. Have seen it a lot of cards recently, isnt she pretty! backing paper is an from an old papermania stack, MS border punch used, the "thank you" is an embossing folder, flower from stash box and this cute little button was part of some bits I ordered last week from The Ribbon Girl.


Thanks for visiting me!

Less is indeed more!
