Sketch and Stash Challenge 18

Happy Friday everyone!!

This is the card I have made for my nephew's First Birthday and once again it has turned out just as I had imagined it!!

I have used October Afternoon Night Light papers and die cuts. I have been very innovative and used ribbon that was on my Fiance Jamie Oliver Apron (photo corners).

I'm going to enter this into the Sketch and Stash Challenge #18. My new stash is the papers (which are nearly all gone) and my neglected brads (which I bought on a whim as they were reduced and then never used them!).

Hope you like it!

Happy Anniversary Mom & Dad

My Mom & Dad celebrated their 30th Wedding Anniversary today. As it's a special occasion I thought I would use an 8x8 card base from Craftwork Cards. I did a lot of hand stitching which looks like it took forever but with a cuppa and a good programme or a friend to natter to, I flew through it. I did cheat a little as I ran out of time and incorporated my little gift for them onto the card.

The little button heart was bought on Ebay from this seller : scarlet-butterfly. The service provided was great - I couldn't fault them one bit! I wanted a gift for them that was traditional and this pearl button heart fitted the theme perfectly!.

Thanks for looking!
