Christmas snowmen....













I love these images, and as regular crafters may spot, I have used Pink Petticoat papers in this card selection. I coloured the small images in with glittery twinklette pens to give a bit of sparkle.

Another tagging....



Shelley just tagged me again... thanks!! :) I have to give 7 wierd or random facts about myself. I have done something similar to this before, so I shall have to try and think of some different stuff to tell you! :)
1. My friends think I am like Monica ( from "FRIENDS") as I am a bit of a clean freak.
2. I met my wonderful hubby when he replied to my ad (for my soulmate) in the local paper, in the personal coloumns!
3. When eating a meal, I always save "the best bit" til last.:)
4. I could eat a whole jar of nutella straight from the jar - if I got the chance! :)
5. I don't like to drive anywhere I don't know... and I don't trust sat nav.
6. I once went to watch sing-a-long-a-sound-of-music at the theatre..we all had to dress up as something from the show...I went as a mountain!
7. I have finished my christmas shopping!!!! (I did start it in April though.)
I 'm not going to pass this on, as I have done a round of tagging recently, but would love it if anyone reading this wanted to take it from me and put it on their own blog. I love to read these types of things about people! (thanks for reading!!)

An Award again!


Thankyou so much to Deb for sending this award to me.,...it really touched me as i read the reason for this award...

"This blog invests and believes the PROXIMITY - nearness in space, time and relationships! These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in prizes or self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers!"
(How lovely!!)

Then I need to... "deliver this award to eight bloggers who must choose eight more and include this cleverly-written text into the body of their award."
I probably can't pass this back to Deb, as she sent it to me :) So I will send to...

My Grandmas Birthday card




I used HOTP papers from a TSV from QVC last year. The happy birthday and corner stamps came in the same set too. I used liquid pearls in the centre of each flower, and along the bottom. Not sure if I need the word "Grandma" on it, but I don't know how to get the word in the same style to fit the card, or where it would look best.

Love....


I used these images ober the weekend as I thought they would look lovely on a very simple card for an anniversary, engagement or love card. On the anniversary card, I decoupaged the heart inbetween the birds, and added glossy accents. I hand-wrote each of the sentiments and added a little liquid pearls. xx
