Gingham

I had such a fantastic time yesterday at the School Reunion.. it was so good to see my school friends and teachers after over 30 years.. such a long time. We didn't stop talking and taking photos .. ending up being the last ones to leave the restaurant ha ha .... 

Anyway, got some photos at the end of this post from yesterday but for now I have my DT Card for this week's Sweet Stampin' Challenge. The theme for this week is GINGHAM.

I always associate gingham with Baby Cards.. so that is just what I did today.. a baby card.

The image that I used is a clear stamp from Pink Gem, coloured it with my promarkers and papers are from my Nursery DCWV paper pack. Had these papers for quite some time but since I don't normally do baby cards in these colours, always going for the traditional pink and blue, I found it hard to use them. This time however I wanted to try them out and in fact this week as well I also used the boy ones from these sets..  and am so happy I did. It's good to try something new.

We are this week sponsored by the lovely Fairy Dust Crafts who as well as having a great range of digis also stock loads of other goodies. So come play with us this week for your chance to win.

Fairy Dust Crafts

and finally some photos from yesterday.

Not everyone could make it, but we were quite a good group.
I am in the centre with the white t-shirt near Mr Borg, our teacher at that time.

The restaurant staff at the back were rejoicing that we were leaving ha ha 

More photos.. 

and another one... the first one on the left was the naughty boy in class.. I remember he had once given me big punch ... I still remember how much I cried ha ha


Fantastic night ... 

Well I better go now, got loads of things to do... housework, DT Cards.. and I also have alterations to do on my new work uniform which we will be wearing for the first time on Monday! I am really excited with it.. so I really hope to see later on today.. 

Thank you for looking

    Hi Dora, what a sweet new baby card! Great colours to make a card like this with as well - it would be perfect for when the parents don't know the sex of the baby and that way no rushing about last minute making a blue or pink card!

    Wonderful pictures as well - looks like you had a smashing time!
