A few thankyou cards

Well today was our final Mainly Music of the year much to the disappointment of Jerremy and his friends.  I think a few Mum's will miss our Friday get togethers as well!!

Here are a few of the cards I made for the ladies who lovingly give up their time, every week, to make Mainly Music possible for us.

Back Blogging!!

Do you know what is so significant about the 25th of August 2009.......It was the last time I blogged.  OMG where has the time gone.  Here I go again, letting LIFE get in the way of my internet obsession.  How dare I LOL.
Anywho, my plan is to blog backwards from here to that point.  I will put it in correct date order but you will know that anything you read between the 25th of August till now, the 27th of November has actually been added today, after the fact.  Shame on me LOL
I promise never to do it again.....umm till the next time.

Christmas Tags - Back Blogged

This year I have wrapped all our presents in red and white striped paper.  Simply stunning I think.

At our last monthly scrapping get together I made a few gift tags as a make and take for the gang.  I had some supplies left over so spent a few hours today making up these beauties.  I was really happy with how they turned out.



Materials used: (I'm shocking with details - get used to it!!)
Tags cut on cricut
Random cardstock
Kaisercraft Merry Christmas stamped in silver
Gold stamped edges
Kaisercraft Christmas Tree stamp in purple
Rhinestones in co-ordinated colours
Kindyglitz

I should have taken a photo pf the back.  I stamped on the journalling lines from the same Kaisercraft Christmas set and wrote on it with while uniball pen.

Still have a few more to make - but I just love how they turned out.

Myles' Birthday Card - Back Blogged

Yes Jerremy has finally been invited to a Birthday party - invitation and all.
This is the card I made for Myles - I just can't bring myself to buy another card, why would I!!


I am really proud of this card because I didn't use a sketch, I actually had an original thought and went ahead with it.  It took me about 30 minutes roughly, I'm a bit of a slow thinker!!  Now it wasn't all that advanced but, hey, we all have to start somewhere.

Materials Used:
Cricut for lettering - don't know what happened with the shadow not being the right size but I still went with it anyways!!
Random cardstock and paper - as usual
Clear Hooray! stamp repeated 3 times
Random Ribbon
Car sticker popped on foam tape
Kindyglitz
