On your Wedding Day


My friend's son is getting married next month and she asked me to make her a Wedding Card, and this is what I came up with. You might think you have seen this card before and you would be right, I made in it blue for another friend. I do worry that the people who commission me to make a card will like them, but with this one I didn't need to worry, as they were delighted. In real life the gold ribbon is a perfect match but for some reason not on my photo.

Every year for the last 3 years we have had Blackbirds nesting in our tiny courtyard garden and this year they nested in a bush which is against the house wall just about 1mtr from the backdoor they hatched a couple of weeks ago. After Mum and Dad blackbird worked so hard feeding them worms and berries they had grown so much and I managed to take a photo just before they flew the nest, hope they make it despite the cats that lye in wait. As you can see there are four little beaks all waiting for mum and dad.

This and That


A few cards I made with the March Key Ingredients Kit by Taylored  Expressions. I had so much fun using this kit.
There is also a link to this on my sidebar.




 For this one I used Spellbinders Office Supplies die


The stamp on this one is by Hero Arts.

 I used Banner day stamp and die set and Spellbinders Home Sweet Home

I'm looking after Grace this weekend as it is  my daughter Nicola and her husband's 10th Anniversary and they are having a nice weekend break in Stratford-upon-Avon. Brian is in Devon having a golf Break, that leaves just the two of us, planning a nice girlie weekend.

Easter Wishes


Sorry I haven't blogged for a while been busy looking after Grace this week and we had a busy time doing some crafting and drawing watching Movies and a visit to Waddesdon Manor where we did an Easter Egg Trail, Grace loved finding the clues and answering the quiz and best of all she loved the Cadbury's Egg.
I made the above card using Warren from Craftworks Cards and papers from Nitwits.

Hope you all have a Happy Easter and lots of choccies.
