Tickled Pink

The umbrella was made using the Cuttlebug build a flower die








Ballet shoes with ribbons











A paper weaving card, inspired by a card seen on Toni's blog.
Thank you Toni.

A few recent cards

An engagement card for my niece.











A wedding card for a customer











and a card for class.
It is a tunnel card and I used the Spellbinders die for the clock .

It is about time.....

I added some more cards! But this is July and it is the start of our visitor season. We have just had our great friends Richard and Brenda out to stay and have had a wonderful relaxing time with them. This is Brenda and I in Murcia - one of the few trips out that we made as it was impossible to stray too far from the pool for too long - scorchio is the word I'm looking for! I'm also adding a picture of the buoys that Brenda paints when she is at home in the Isle of Man - aren't they stunning? The card is one I have made since they left yesterday and is for friend's granddaughter, who is spending her birthday in Spain. I'll put up some more cards later, that I have been making of late, but with my sister and BiL due here in a weeks time, it might be later rather than sooner.

All aboard!

I had to get out of my sick bed yesterday having been there for 3 days with a flu virus (no, I don't think I was oinking). I realised that brother-in-law Chris would be 50 in June and a special card was needed.
Thankfully I had cut this one out and put it to one side, so all I needed to do was add the frills.
He is the engineering officer on P & O Aurora, so although it is a bit like taking coals to Newcastle, I hope he likes it.

Birthday Cards

I had two birthdays to make cards for this week. One for my neice and the other one an order. I hope the all like their cards.

Men's cards

Once again I have been ignoring my blog for too long. I have had tendonitis in my wrist for the last few weeks which is really painful, but thankfully it is all better now.
I have also been busy at classes with a couple of men's workshops.
Here are a couple of cards from the class. The baseball one also won me first prize in the Imag-e-nation forum challenge, so I was very chuffed about that. I think this one could be really nice as a girl's hat too, so I may have to try it in pink and fluffy stuff.

Some recent cards

I really have been so busy lately and have forgotten to update my blog with some of the cards I've been making. My latest excuse is a bad case of tendonitis in my right wrist which has forced me to spend less time on the computer and even less time making cards.

I am pleased to report that it is on the mend now though and I'll soon be back in the swing of things again.
So, here are a few cards that I have done with the girls in class lately.
