To the Happy Couple

I won at Mo's with this card

Hi, its very windy here although very mild, strange weather,  went to see Woman in Black this afternoon wasn't as scary as I thought it was gonna be, but not a bad film.  I hope hubby was good to you on Valentines day, I got gorgeous perfume and 24 red roses, he knows I luv him to bits, I got hubby aftershave and a little bear with I luv u on it and asked her would she mind wrapping it with the aftershave, and she looked at me and said, I thought luv was dead, cheeky mare,  well enough of that for my card blooming awful pic, I used TH, graphicus papers, distressed the edges with the TH tool but to be honest I think a pair of scissors is just as good, coloured the image from Mo's with promarkers, don't they look a happy couple, I had this coloured for last weeks challenge at PFP but the week flew by and I missed the deadline, the flower is one I made from felt and sizzix die, all embellies from stash, the satin ribbon isn't sparkly as its showing on the pic.

Internet was playing silly buggers all day, it really cracks me up when it isn't working, had a little play last week trying different material and dies for flowers, bought a couple of  scarves out of the charity shop, I used the tattered florals die and a sizzix die, for my card, papers from TH, denamics corner die, stamped the flower names in the corners, key I distressed with blue sapphire ink and them clear embossing powder, although in the photo's it looks black, spellbinders die behind the flower, and cut out the text on my circuit, wow I actually used it,  miracle.

Havin Fun

Hi, well I took myself out today and bought some needed clothes and Cd's, and not a crafty shop in sight, that was good for me, anybody know where you can buy a decent pair of jeans that come up over your hips, I actually went into the sports shop and bought an exercise ball and weights, need to loose 2 stone for my height, I was looking at the machines boy have they come down in price, but thought I would start off small, my niece uses her machine for her clothes in the bedroom, knowing me I would probably end up the same, I have been on a diet the last 2 weeks so weigh in tomorrow, eek, so for my card I luv these on the pin cushion, bought this with my win from Simon Says, its the wooden one must say I am glad they have brought them out in rubber, coloured with promarkers, Kraft card pre scored in 6x6, started using my sissix embossing boards that came with my Big shot, handy because  its bigger than the plastic ones, and I always leave a line when I have to put it through a couple of times, distressed it with sandpaper,  papers TH, spellbinder die, little zippers Creative Expressions, buttons from wool shop, gorgeous ribbon from Susan, thanks, stamped Happy Birthday,
