Firday again Happy Birthdays

Friday morning again, and another week gone. May already where is the year going? It has been another busy week, with on crafting from me yet. These two cards are what i made last week for a couople of special ladies birthdays. I know the cards have been received now so am safe to post them.

I trust everyone is having a good week, the weather has not been so nice this week, but we are still having sunny intervals, which keeps me going!

I have been having trouble with one of my teeth for a while now but wednesday i was forced to book a dentist appointment. I am going this afternoon, and ladies i can't tell you how much im dreading it. What a baby i am and such a bad example to my children!!! i know i should go for regular check ups but im too scared, so this is my punishment - toothache!

It is coming up to my blog anniversary in just over a month, so i will be gathering together a lovely blog candy for you all, so please keep an eye out for it over the next week or so.

So this card was made using some papers from a QVC tsv. The image of course is one of the delightful whiff of joy!

I used liquid pearls around the outside of my mount. Flowers are a punch with diamante centres.

This is the poem i made up for the inside of the card. I'll never be a poet, but it came from the heart!

I have only just started decorating the inside of my cards, but am really getting into it.



This is the gorgeous image from Pollycrafts. I love these girls, and don't use them half as much as i should. I suspect most of you are like me, too many stamps and not enough time to ink them ! its criminal, but the days just seem to get shorter, and more and more gorgeous stamps are being put in temptations way!




Papers are from my local craft shop, an A5 pad brought made moons ago. Only just managed to bring myself to cut it up!




So ladies, i hope you have a good day whatever you are doing, one thing is for sure, its likely to be better than my trip to the Dentists!
Hugs for now Linda x
