Twins

Hello friends, how was your weekend? Hope it wasn't like mine 'cos it just wasn't fun at all .. had the carpenter here again on Saturday and well kitchen is still not ready!!! .. long story.. so I still have most of the kitchen dismantled and all things lying about. I'm now really hoping he finishes by this week as OH needs to do an op on his hand asap!! Today was not so fun either, we didn't go to the beach as the weather was not nice and I ended up ironing ... Had a big pile which was getting bigger and bigger each day which just had to be done! O well, if I look at the bright side of that I can say now I'm done with that so I have some free time during the week instead... hopefully..

This is a card I managed to do. A colleague of mine needed a card for twin baby boys and waited for me to come back from my holiday . . . busy as I was, how could I say I couldn't do it!



For my card I used some of my new stuff, MS punches and also the machine to do the embossing and for cutting out the names. The stamp I used, which I coloured with my promarkers, is by Marjorie and is a freebie too... wow, cute isn't it :)

I found me some challenges too..

1 - Just Cute Bears Challenge no 32 - EMBOSSING
2 - AUD Sentiments Challenge no 9 - ANYTHING GOES
3 - Stampin' for the Weekend Challenge no 45 - ANYTHING GOES
4 - Stamping Vacation: Occasion Oasis Challenge - CONGRATULATIONS

Hope you like my card and thanks for looking.

Twins

This week a friend of mine asked me to do a birthday card for her twins who will be one tomorrow. I didn't have anything to do for this card and after searching I came across Karen's Doodles and asked her if she would be doing anything for twins... and ... not only did she do me this gorgeous stamp just for me, but she gave it to me for free as well!!! Isn't that so sweet!!! Thanks so much Karen, really so sweet of you xx

I just finished the card now ...


I used this gorgeous sketch No 51 from The Sweet Stop and I coloured the stamp with my promarkers.



I am also entering it in these other challenges:

1 - Flutter By Wednesday's - Challenge No 105 is an OPEN THEME .... just be sure to include a butterfly, fairy or angel..

2 - Cute Card Thursday - Challenge No 108 is TOUCHY FEELY...

And by the way, Karen is having an April Spring Sale ending tomorrow Friday 16th. I still have to get mine... there is a gorgeous Holy Communion Set of stamps which I really need and then that Butterfly Baby Girl I think is so sweet.



Thanks so much for looking today.

A quick visit today Friday to post this card for the Cupcake Craft Challenge.

This week the challenge was to "Keep it Simple", and they are being sponsored by Soft Pencil, so the winner gets a lovely $20 gift voucher to spend in their shop.. wow :) couldn't resist participating, even though the number of entrants is enormous... but well, the fun of it all is to participate, if you win it's a bonus and if you don't participate you can never win :)

Here is my card, which I made for a colleague of mine.
