had my girls in stitches

after a weekend of having ellie, who had us in stitches when she suddenly called hollie  stupid and emma an idiot i had to try to work out what noncker meant, dare i go there, told my son who reckoned it was not funny when she called him a noncker instead of the king, i had my girls in fits of laughter when i told them what they came out with, i will leave these two to your imaginations and see what you come up with,
hollie  if she repeated  slippers off
emma      fork and knife,    
lets just say i had to make sure i rephrased those two before it got me into trouble.
anyway im now showing two cards i made for the animal chariety and ebay competition i take part in every month. theme was mothers day. I think i need to use bigger cards for these in future  found i couldnt find any bigger envelopes in my stash so had to use small and found i couldnt add the borders i wanted to add. not overly thrilled with these cards now i see them on the screen, but hey ho i know they wont win me the comp but im happy taking part and thats all that matters to me.

both are from the joanna sheen fashion boutique cdrom

there is a third card somewhere but i seem to have misplaced it after deciding it was ott and left no room for a greeting lol, once i find it i will post a pic as a lesson to myself

wish i was a bit more techy minded.

my first book card made for a lady on maternity leave from today.

only one person said it was the wrong type of card it should have been a leaving card, but she isnt exactly leaving she will be back after her maternity leave finishes

valentine cards

after taking a sample card into work using a digi stamped image from  the crafty pad, i got asked to make a number of valentine cards. all made similar to each other, the only difference was the backing papers those were all done in different colour schemes, this one im showing you was for our supervisor who didnt want flowery slushy or lovey sentiments, but then decided she wanted the heart brad added as i didnt add that  just in case.

this next one was a real headache and the end result not what i originally wanted to achieve, but recipient is pleased with it so thats all that matters

the frame is the off cut of the card above before it went through the cuttlebug lol, cant really say i know a man who would like to recieve this as a valentine card but i did as requested and wont find out untill our return to school after the holiday if he was pleased with it.
