I used the Stacking Crystals by McGill to create the snowflakes down the side of the card the red and gold snowflakes is a sticky backed material the sentiment is stamped using a Penny Black stamp ( unfortunately I tend to break into song every time I use it ) I stacked this using Nestibilities, I finished off by tying a ribbon around the card.

Floral Punch Craft - Queen Annes Lace
This was a tricky little devil to make, balancing the tiny flowers on the tip of the greens was a great challenge as they kept tipping to the side believe you me there was some choice words flying about. The base card was embossed with stylised flower A2 cuttlebug folder then a patterned paper added to the edge, the rectangles were cut with the Nestabilities dies then a sentiment cut out with a word punch all layered and a ribbon added and tied at the edge and last but not least I added the flower with some glue gel.

Nephew's Wedding Day
The Wedding of Craig and Claire
Well we had a sun filled day so we were blessed as the weather of late could have made this day so very different.
Both Bride and Groom were radiant and enjoyed their special day.
The 2 best dressed boys my great Nephews Dylon who is 3 in December who is quite the whirlwind when trying to get a picture of him and Layton born 8th July dressed in the tiniest waistcoat and cravat.
Chris was Usher and looked quite dapper, Natalie kept me company while her Dad was doing his duties.
The Reception
The reception was at Lumley Castle which is full of wondrous images I couldn't resist taking pictures of the walls and the ceiling and heard many a comment like "I bet we see some of them shots in a card form" ha ha well maybe we will.
The first image below was in a corridor that we had to walk through to get to the reception room although some thought it was spooky I found it all quite charming.
If you click on the pictures of the ceiling and walls you will see just how beautiful the plaster work is.
The Bridal Suite
The first 2 pictures I couldn't resist I think the toilet was made for midgets it was so low and the second picture just totally cracked me up this was the comic mags hanging on the back of the door.
Craig striking a pose for me and the champagne bucket with the strawberry filled glasses
