Simple Stitching

Hello everyone I hope that you are all having a fabulous weekend, mine has been pretty relaxing so far with a bit of retail shopping today for my brother in laws upcoming wedding. That same brother in law is celebrating his birthday tomorrow and I thought that Kwerner's Colour Challenge #45 would be perfect for a male card.  Thank you for coming to visit, I hope to see you again. Bye!

Presents, Pumpkins and Potato

Good evening everyone, I hope that you have all had a good day today, wasn't the weather miserable which is good because we need rain but a bit more rain would be nice too. I have a few things to share with you tonight and the first was a little box I made for my friend Megan over at Scrapea Space who will be having a birthday on Saturday. The little box pattern I got from Andrea and it was sooo easy and I had fun making it. Since Megan is getting crafty with the sewing machine I thought that I would make this little pumpkin pincushion for her and I added a couple of other things in the box for her which I hope will help with her new sewing adventures. Happy Birthday Megan for Saturday!

And lastly I just thought I would show you some of my cooking skills by posting a photo of what I made for dinner tonight. I made Sweet Potato Soup and Cheesy Corn Muffins, just right for a rainy night. I hope that you all have a lovely day tomorrow. Catch you later!

Kwerner Colour Challenge #44

Goodmorning everyone! Last night I made this card for Kwerner's Colour Challenge this week. When I saw the colours that were chosen I was just a bit excited because firstly they are just such a pretty combination and finally I have all the colours so I could join in this time. I have been stamping for a long time but for a year I have been using Stampin Up products so I am slowly getting up a stash of materials. Yeh I just love stamping! Anyway I hope you like my little creation and I hope everyone has a lovely Saturday, I will be having fun grocery shopping and going to a fairy party my daughter just can't wait to go to. See you all again soon.

One of many birthday cards!

Hello there! I mentioned in my last post that March is a busy month for me and so I would be sharing a few cards with all of you. Today I made another simple male birthday card for my best friend's husband, who is celebrating his birthday tomorrow.  Thank you for stopping by and I hope to see you again soon.

A Pretty Flower Card

I hope that all of you have had a good weekend, mine was pretty busy and a busy week ahead as well, I'm feeling kind of ready for it but sometimes with so much to do you just don't know where to start but I'll get there. Anyway that's enough nattering for now, I made this card tonight to send out as a BRAK card for Splitcoaster's up and coming birthday. I decided not to use a sentiment on this card because it would look too busy I think. Thank you for coming to visit. See you again soon.

A Simple Male Card

Hello there, hope you are all having a good weekend. Lots of sunshine here and although today is the first day of Autumn it still feels like a Summery kind of day. Here is a birthday card I whipped up on Thursday for my good friend's husband who had his birthday on Friday, unfortunately it'll be a little late but better late than never I say. Anyway nothing else to show today but with March being a busy month for birthdays I will be posting more cards soon. Thank you for visiting.
