My Nana

Morning , this is my first day back at work (frown) I just know there’s going to be far too much to catch up with but hey ho I’ll give it my best shot.

I didn’t get a card made last night but I did some colouring in between the nose dripping lol!

However I did manage a couple of layouts as I could keep my head upright so less nose drips to contend with. I know it’s gross but what could I do?

The subject was easy, My Nana, such a special lady.

This one is myself the baby and my cousin Susan both sitting on our nan’s lap.

 

Just to show you honest I did start to colour

Family Matters

Good morning, hope you are enjoying the weekend, today is my last day off work after a long Christmas break, my last few days has been spent nursing a head cold, but no worse than others have had it so I will survive.

Today my lovely husband is busying around the front room, it’s been tidied and he is now about to vacuum and dust, love that man!

We are having the family for Sundays dinner, no we aren’t eating them but they are coming over for their fix of Yorkshire puddings and Sundays dinner, all except Natalie who is spending the day with her friend, she is much much better now and will also be returning to work tomorrow.

I was looking over past photographs last night, our Granson Jack is now quite the chatty chap with the why? and What? questions that seem to flow in abundance he has grown so fast. I even had to buy a booster seat for our dining room chairs rather than his high chair for this Sunday dinnertime.

Here is a little reminder of what he was like as a baby using the My Memories Suite 

 

I used the program to plan out a card the other day as you can customise what size of layout you need, so I planned out the card on one layout the transferred the individual elements onto sheets ready to print so I only printed what I needed so that saves ink and wasted pieces this is the card here

I use My Memories Suite to digi scrap and now to make cards it is an amazingly easy program to work with.

If you would like to get started and be able to make wonderful gifts and keepsakes this is definitely in my opinion the program to be using.

Don’t forget by using my code you can get $10 off the My Memories Suite software and also an extra $10 coupon off any purchases made. That's a big $20 saving.

Love

My card today is made using Ragged Romeo by Mo’s Digital Pencil such a super cute little couple this, right down to there little boots.

Do you remember your first love, you know the one that broke your heart as a youngster and you thought it was the end of the world?

I know the word is quite often used as a day to day word as in “I love that” “isn’t that lovely” but to actually be in love is the best thing in the world.

Now this image just sings out the word love don’t you think?

Martha Stewart Border punch, Copic Sketch Markers, Stampin Up designer papers, Memory Box heart die

Saturated Canary–90’s Girl

I am getting quite a collection of Saturated Canary Digi’s now, this one I love it’s Pink Punkette, cool or what?

Coloured with FlexMarkers by Letraset (love those pens) and teamed with Nitwit Collections Berry designer papers. I even decoupaged the little mouse.

Such a sweet thing isn’t she?

I added some Glossy Accents by Tim Holtz to the letters to make them pop. It makes them look like expensive embellishments, well worth having in your craft stash.

Also a little detail added to the corner, button, ribbon, lace and gems. I added a bit of love to finish the card.

Jack in the Box

You know when you have days that just get you down, I have the perfect remedy for those such days, they say that laughter is a healer and this kid just totally cracks me up, not only is he as cute as cute could be but he is witty and smart to boot, ten minutes with him and he has you grinning from ear to ear.

Jack in the Box.

see what I mean?
