Official Long Service Photographs

We got the photographs back from Chris’s Long Service award and I have to say we are thrilled with them.

The photographer Peter Siberry is just amazing, he also used to be in the brigade but his talent led him to being a top class photographer now running his own business along with his wife Sue.

Here are the fabulous results of a fabulous evening. be sure to view as a slide show.

For my hop card I used Mummu and Virginia from Mo’s Digital Pencil I love this, it’s truly sentimental isn’t it?

I used Graphic 45 papers and pearls from Mei Flower and my image is coloured with Copic markers and Chalk Pencils

All finished with a little bit of lace and a pretty lilac ribbon.

Difficult Card Orders

You know the drill, the customer is always right and they want something special and something specific to their needs.

My information was nothing fancy or flowery a Thank You card, something that will reflect the job they do, nothing in your face or girlie.

So here it is.

The customer….. my husband Chris, a Thank You card to the lads at the Fire Station, they put on a surprise leaving party for Chris on Saturday evening, they even laid on food, he got some fabulous gifts and I got yet another bouquet of flowers and it was humongous.

I couldn’t refuse the request from Chris now could I?

Little Shepherd Boy

I know I am bias but it has to be sad Jack makes a very angelic shepherd boy, he had his Nativity play at school and even had some lines to rehearse and was so pleased with himself for knowing them off by heart.

he stayed over with us last night, so he came out with us shopping today and was as good as gold, we went to our local butchers to get the meat for the week and something which Jack calls my special meat and he had 3 slices of it, actually it is tongue, much to his Mams dismay he loves it after trying some I bought for myself.

Caricature from our evening out.

I mentioned that we had a Caricature done last evening, it was such fun, the guy that did them was amazing, talk about quick draw McGraw I tell you he had nothing on this guy.

Edd Travers from Glasgow, he is so clever, he has a website and is available for functions and he also does gift orders. His website is www.eddtravers.co.uk please go over there and have a look, it could solve a gift problem for you.

Here is the sketch that he did for us.

and Edd kindly allowed me to colour one in too.

I love it, such fun.
