Daring card makers challenge

Daring card makers challenge was to use some plastic you would throw away.
Recycled plastic.
I used the plastic off a packet of peel off's,
to make the window and to add the peel off butterfly.
I am not so sure about this card,
I would love to know what you think!

The 4th Scrapbook page that I had to re-do!

I don't know how I did it but I was amazed I had!
I actually put the photo of my son on this page when he first started
reception class. Now it has the right one on it!
Here is my son on his first day at Nursery.
How smart he looks!

More Scrapbook pages...

I was going to show you 4 pages, but realised that a photo
I had put on one page was the wrong one!
I have re-done the page and just need to photo it again.
Below is my son with his cute cuddlies!
A page about my Mum and Dad getting married.
And below my grandparents on my Dad's side.
I don't have many picture of them though which is a shame!
I did do this LO in a different paper but I had to
put them on plain cream.

The roses are velum, which I think just add the right touch of colour!

What finger are you? Just for fun

Just for fun!
You Are a Ring Finger
You are romantic, expressive, and hopeful.
You see the best in everything.
You are very artistic, and you see the world as your canvas.
You are also drawn to the written word.
Inventive and unique, you are often away in your own inner world.
You get along well with: The Pinky
Stay away from: The Index Finger

PTW Challenge

'Spring in your step!' is to make a card (or other item!) with a spring theme!
Easter and Mother's Day both fall early this year and
with me daffs out in the garden already it seemed a good theme!
Here is a card I made for the Paper Take Weekly challenge.

I wanted to keep it Quite plain and simple,

I thought the colours were very spring like!

Race for life 2008 For the angel that touched my life.

This is a very special picture.
I would like you to meet my Mum In-Law
Wendy.
The angel that touched my life.
She is the reason why I do the race for life every year.
In memory of a fantastic lady who fought cancer for many years,
in the end she just could not fight anymore.
I am asking you all to dig deep,
Please sponsor me for my 3rd time doing the race for life.
I will also add a link at the left of this page, please visit it.
This should have been my 4th race, but I was unable to do it last year,
I was in hospital after having the surgery done on my back.
I want to raise enough money to cover the race I missed and this years race.
Thank you for your support.
Love & hugs for you all

A gift for a Teacher on maternity leave.

My son's school teacher has left to have a baby,
so I made this as a gift from us for her babies nursery.
A more detailed view of each section.
These were the packaging from some rolls of ribbon.
Of course I had to use Tilda stamps!The back of the top one, for details of baby.The middle section.I had to use colours to suit both boys and girls.I thought a photo might fit well on here.The last section, a cute tilda with a baby.I also thought it would be nice for them to write there first thoughts down.
She was very pleased with her gift, and said she would hang it in baby's room.
