Teething Jack

It's that time of the week Monday we get to look after our precious baby Jack, One tooth is through now and another on the way, anything that he can get to his mouth gets bit. Thanks to the lady who told me about the teething powders Lauren Jack's Mam said they are fabulous.
I've 4 pictures of him tonight with captions and tomorrow I've a card to add which I'm praying that Jack won't turn out like.
" I'm gonna bite this like I've never bit before"

"How did that get up there?"


"Which one first?"

"I just know if I concentrate hard enough I will be able to will these into my mouth"


Gruesome Two's - Two Tasha

What a little princess or should that be "darling" ha ha , I remember only too well that precious moment when my girls hit 2 years old.

Who lives in a box like this?

So the dorbell rang and I was handed this large heavy box, I love parcels.
I carfully opened the box to find it was full of foam worms!
Who could live in a box like this?

An Asda bag full of foam worms before I got to my goodies but boy was it worth it.




Ok so I went a bit wild the sizzix sale is still on. My receipt said cost of goods £50.85 a saving of £191.65 Wow how good is that?


As you can see from the above image, I trebled and doubled up on some of the dies I figured that both my Mam and Chris's Mam would love them too so perfect gifts.

Flourish Medalion

As I only used part of the medalion stamp from Stampin Up on the last card I made with it I thought I would make one showing the whole of this stamp but this time using a classic black and white theme.
A black 14 x 14 base card and a patterned paper from Papertrey ink cut slightly smaller.
Medalion stamped onto white card with Momento Ink then mounted onto a slightly larger black card, I went on to stamp the centre of the Medalion again and cut this out added pearls a white button and ribbon and used double sided foam pads to mount this in the centre of the first medalion to give a 3d effect
