Papers: Forever Friends

Flowers: Wild Orchid Crafts

Sentiment: Anita's Peeloffs

Image: Penny Black coloured with Promarkers

I am grateful for any comments!!!

A very very Late showing of my Valentine card

Yes ladies and gents I did say valentines card!!! As some of you may know I have recently split up with my boyfriend of 6yrs so why make a valentines card I hear you say??? well a few of my friends have also split up with partners so we are all single again and enjoying it immensely so as this would be the 1st year for a while that we wouldn't receive a card to our knowledge, one of my barmy mates came up with the idea to make a circle of love (yes you heard right) so we each had someone we had to buy for to make sure we all got a card and a little something for valentines day.


So here is the card I made .... i have to say im really impressed with the turn out of this card let me know what you think


Ingredients :

Cs- bazzill basics + papermaina
Hearts- stamped and heat embossed with
Sentiment- Stamp love set (cant remember who by)
Stamp- Penny Black
Medium- Prisma's with sansador
Ribbon- from stash
Closer look of image

Unfortunately my friend was meant to be picking everything up but she still hasn't. I wouldn't mind she only lives 4 houses around the corner but I think she may be coming from Australia it's taken her that long, which also meant my sister didn't get a card in the circle of love although she did get one from a secret admirer which was good!!

Tfl

I'm back for good i promise

Hi folks, I'm really sorry I haven't been around for a while I have had a lot on at the moment but that is another story, anyway I have been making cards and purchasing craft goodies oops (I am naughty) so this may be a very long post so I apologise in advance just bear with me and keep awake as I always appreciate your comments and opinions and would like to know how I can improve!!



So Here Goes .....



My 1st card is one i made a few months ago for my friend who had recently been made redundant and was struggling to find a job she was seriously prepared to do absolutely anything as she just needed money as she was finding it extremely hard only have one wage coming in and two children to look after, which in this current climate there will be many more people in the same predicament at the mo which is very sad to hear, Well after many interviews for a range of positions Vicky has finally got a job working at Manchester Airport which is some thing she trained in at college a few (i mean many) years ago!!! So congratulations Vicky I'm so pleased for you she doesn't start training till next week but she was prepared to wait,

So here is the card i made:

Customer Service

Well i was extremely impressed when i received both orders from glitterpot and cutting edge crafts first thing sat morning, as i said in my earlier post i had only ordered the goods Friday lunchtime and they arrived at 9am, i wasn't impressed though at the time i got woke up my sister has ordered some clothes from the catalogue and parcel net thought it was quite OK to knock on the door and wake the whole house up wait for it At 7am on a sat morning are they mad so there went my lie in as i couldn't get back to sleep if i tried so wasn't happy.

royal mail cheered me up with the parcels though for a change!!!

so three cheers for glitterpot and cutting edges crafts, i will definitely be ordering from you both again, fantastic customer service which makes a change

Well it has taken me a long time to find some time for myself, never mind making cards but i had a couple of hours spare last night so made some cards, i had a anniversary card to make for my 1st order, a 18th birthday card and a general birthday card, I have recently taken delivery of some new penny black stamps (6 in total lol !!!!), which i couldn't wait to use and i bought my first Tilda stamps which i have not had chance to use yet hopefully i will find some more free time soon!!! So here is the final results please let me know what you think as if i don't know how I'm doing i cant improve!!
