Welcome Baby



I have made this for a baby who was determined to get into this world long before her time, bless her she should not have arrived untill May, she weighed in at 2 pound 10 ounces, she has a long way to go yet before she can go home.
.It was so strange that a friend sent me the template for this card, and i started it on Thursday, not  knowing it would be needed so soon.

Birthday Card

Made at Stampin Up class, last night,
The colours are Melon Mambo Basic Black, and Whisper White,
Stamps are Vintage Vogue
I had great difficulty stamping before I found Stamping up, and the best thing for me is the Stamp-a-ma-jig, I did have to have a little help with this boarder but I think I have got the hang of it now, anyway they say practice makes perfect so I will be having a few more goes at line stamping.
Well what a glorious day it has been, such a lovely change and even felt the warmth of the sun, so it looks as if spring is on its way at last even the miniature daffodils are poking their little shoots,out, if it is as nice tomorrow I shall have a walk in the park,

Stampin Up

Birthday card for my son

Finding my way

Having had my first few days finding my way around I think with the help of my bestist friend I have begun  my journey.to begin I have many interests I love anything crafty , it all started when  I was about 10years old, when I was shown how to make a picture show out of a shoe box, by my darling Aunt Mary bless her,she got me going and I was never with out a pencil and paper, I love too knit by hand, sew, paint, & draw,   I think I have had about 5 knitting machines, and my knitting as gone far and wide, I also love parchment white work, and now I have found Stampin Up, it is great, and I have made one or two beautiful cards at a Stampin Up class, a smashing tutor, I may add, (she has loads of patience) lol, I will have to take some pictures,
