And I made her birthday card using the adorable "Hiya chick" stamps from Banana Frog
 That's all for now!

Celebrations!

Yes I know ... long time no post. I'm gonna try really hard to blog a bit more often!

July is always a busy month for celebrations in our family... my Mum & Dad's wedding anniversary is in the middle of July & also, can you believe it, my sister's birthday is on the same day! So after years of always feeling left out (sob, sob, pass the tissues), when me & hubby decided to get married, it had to be in July!
This year though my parents celebrated their Ruby wedding anniversary ... 40 years of married life together. We had a big family meal at TGI Fridays to celebrate. If you've never been there, you should go it was yummmmmmmmy!
Of course such an occasion can't be celebrated without a card so here's the one I made for my Mum & Dad, with of course the obligatory wedding day photo ;-)



My Mum also asked me to make a card for her to give to my Dad. I made a kind of flag/concertina style card which I had seen on the Craftwork Cards website gallery.




We had even further reason to celebrate as my little sister passed her social work degree! Kerry's in her 30s, but she hated school & got out as soon as she could. After bringing up her 2 boys on her own, once they were in secondary school she decided to go back to education. She's worked her butt off to get this qualification & I am so immensely proud of her. Love you lil sis xxx
