Today’s the Day–William and Kate

So set your TV recordings and enjoy the Royal Wedding of Prince William to Kate, I’m eagerly watching to see Kate's dress and no doubt it will be as beautiful and elegant as Kate is herself.

I’ve heard all of the arguments on how much this wedding will cost the UK but just ask yourselves this…… How much will it cost for another Bank Holiday? yet I bet very few of those arguing the cost of the Wedding will refuse the extra day off work.

I for one like our Royals and think they do our country a lot of good, I know first hand that many of my friends in overseas countries are excited to watch this wedding.

Such expectations of a future king and don’t they just make a gorgeous looking couple.

As of yesterday I now have my own Mother of the Bride outfit ready for my own daughters wedding and I even found a hat that doesn’t make me look like Freddy Parrot Face.

Who ever and where ever you are enjoy this Royal Wedding day.

Dreams Really Do Come True

I used two separate digital stamps one from Just Inklined the Fairy Toadstools which are free when you join the Just Inklined group on Crafters Digital Art Center the link is on my side bar and I’d love to see you there. The other is from Crafts and Me digital stamps and is called Noon.

I coloured the artwork using Copic Sketch Markers I used the border system from Tonic Studios to create the fancy borders on the Designer paper, a ribbon some blossoms and some pearl stems and a bit of love to bring it all together.

Oh Captain Jack at York!

Captain Jack! definitely worthy of a peck on the cheek! Ooooh Arghhhhhh!

Such a beautiful Cathedral in York don’t you think?

Beautiful inside and out!

And the quaint little narrow street were alive with folk out for the day.

So that is what I got up to on Bank Holiday Monday here in the UK, I came home worn out and shattered and curled up on the sofa with the poorly blanket.

Ribbon Bow Tutorial

After being asked so many times how I make the bows for my cards and designs I have made a quick video tutorial for you all, I hope you find this useful

Sadie’s Potting Bench

Isn’t this just the sweetest darn thing ever?

Sadie and The Potting Bench are by Mo Manning and they are just made for each other, I could have merged the two images together but I felt that Sadie needed to stand out a little more and I wanted you to see the cute birdhouse on the potting bench.

I used Basic Grey designer paper and coloured the images with Copic Sketch Markers used a pretty spring green satin ribbon and made some roll up roses to match the colour scheme.
