My little poppet is of course, my daughter Jess. She's not so little any more though ... why oh why do our kids have to grow up; and so frikkin fast??? She recently had her birthday & is now the grand old age of 11. 11? How did that happen??? Here is my gorgeous girl on her birthday
Isn't she just beautiful, & so grown up. *sigh* She's off to secondary school in September, we had her place confirmed & she got into her 1st choice school with lots of her friends. Phew! We had a girly day out shopping, spending some of the pennies she had for her birthday & we both fell in love with these...
Oh there's no place like home :-) & leading on from that ... Jess has a small part in the upcoming school production of Wizard of Oz so we have lines to learn & songs to practise :-)
We also have reason to celebrate ... after 5 months of being out of work my hubby has just landed a 3 mth contract. Yay! Ok, its only 3 mths but it's a darn sight better than nothing!!
On that cheery note I'll say farewell for now. I'll leave you with a couple of cards I made recently. This was Jess's birthday card made with the Papernation "Disco Diva" decoupage & a Craftwork Cards Fold-a-flower made with vellum.
This one I made for one of Jess's friends
And lastly, my Mum asked me to make a card for her friend's 60th birthday. I used a Hero Arts stamp I've had for a long long time. The background was made with spiced marmalade, mustard seed & antique linen distress ink pads, a swish of gold perfect pearls & a spritz of water!
Thanks for stopping by and take care xxx
