Pencil Lines Sketch 145 ......

Hi everyone, well nearly the weekend! I hate to tell you this but I am hoping it will rain tomorrow! Sorry I don't want all my blogging buddies to get the rain but it means that my hubby Will won't have to work. If it is fine he will have to go in as he works on farm. My life is ruled by the weather!

Anyway another digi layout of my holiday, I hope I am not boring you all with my holiday pics! I love the photo on this layout as Grace looks so tiny next to her dad. She is very tiny but he is also very tall at 6ft 2. The layout was made using a digi template from Pencil Lines, I have at last figged out how to use these after many goes and lots of googling!

Have a great weekend.

1 Challenge and 2 cards ..............

Hi everyone, a few cards at last! I had a friend stay last week then I got a cold at the weekend and felt really rough so I have not felt like making any cards. I did get these cards started at the weekend and managed to finish them this morning as I am feeling much better now. Just as well I got these cards finished as they are for my husband Will who is 30 today. The first card is for Friday Sketchers who have a fantastic sketch this week.

The second card was going to be for Crafters Companion Challenge Blog but I realised when I went to post it that they also have a theme as well as a sketch which was to make a card for a young person. I know that Will would like to thing he is young person but at 30 I really don't think that will count lol!

Sorry I have not returned your comments lately, now I am better I hope to catch up with you all you again soon.

Back from hols and published again!

Hi everyone, I got back from my hols yesterday after an 8 hour car journey! I had a fantastic time though so the journey was worth it. I just have a mountain of washing and ironing to catch up on now and I'm back to work tomorrow as well. Thanks for everyone that left me comments and wished me a lovely holiday.

I brought a copy of Craft Stamper whilst I was on holiday and found that one of my cards was featured in the readers gallery! I had forgotten about sending the card in as it was a couple of months ago so it was a lovely surprise!

Thanks for stopping by.

Surf Babe Digi Layout

Hi everyone, we are still having a great time in Cornwall. We are going to be spending the day on the beach trying to surf today. I am hoping that I manage to stand on the surf board today rather than just kneel!

I hope you like the layout of my little girl Grace. Thanks to everyone that has left me comments whilst I am away. I will return them as soon as I am home.
