We Will Rock You

Oh what a night (Thursday), we decided to give Chris a surprize for his Birthday (Friday) and take him to see We Will Rock You at the Sunderland Empire

Keeping things quiet from Chris is pretty difficult

as we had to get cover for him from the Brigade as it was YFA (Young Firefighters Association) so we thought we had everything covered then he only went and got stuck at work.

So we finally got there and we had a fabulous evening singing along to all of the Queen hits, totally our era.

Happy Birthday Chris

Quick Christmas cards

Well I have spent best part of 24hrs trying to format an external drive that i back up my computer to, for some reason it just decided to stop working, isn’t technology wonderful “sigh”.

I knew you would all sack me if I didn’t get a card made so off I went to my craft room I sat down and put some finishing touches to a special card that I needed, I’ll show you that one next week. Then looked at the time and it was 11.45pm, so I made 2 mega quick cards using an embossing folder some ribbon and 2 wooden veneered Reindeer and some crystal stickers from Meiflower .

Ragged Angel

Such a sweet vintage Christmas feel to this little lady. Ragged Angel is a digi stamp and is available from Mo’s Digital Pencil 

Coloured with Promarkers and FlexMarkers from Letraset, I used the Spellbinders Labels 4 die to cut out the image and the backing papers are fro, last year, making memories I think.

I used some crystal stickers from Meiflower to enhance the berries on the paper and a bit of stickles glitter glue, a charm and a pretty ribbon bow to finish.

Happy Birthday Dad

So today would have been my Dads Birthday and I thought it would be very apt to feature the little boy who was named after him.

Our Grandson Jack is more special than most of you know because Lauren had a quiet word with my Dad telling him that she was trying for a baby and asked him to send her one so from day one her baby was to be named after my Dad. Happy Birthday Dad xxx

My two boys together.

Dad would have been so very proud of him.
