KKCC #2

Kimmie's second challenge for her celebration week is a sketch challenge so this is my entry.



I've used a Penny Black stamp and coloured it with Brushables and then used Woodware circle and scalloped circle punches. Cardstock is Bazzill Bling and paper is from Doodlebug. I have run the brown c.s. through my Big Shot with a cuttlebug embossing folder. Sentiment is a Woodware stamp, velvet ribbon is from Ribbon Oasis, flowers are Prima, sparkly brads are from Papermania as are the sticky gems.

Hope to be back a bit later with another offering...in the meantime, take a look at Kimmie's blog (link on the left)....she's got loads going on this week with some fabulous candy on offer!!

My Surprise For Tony!!

As promised, I'm back to let you in on my surprise for Tony tomorrow! Don't know where to start with this but maybe a little personal history first. When I married Tony in 1996 I was a UK size 14. I've always had to watch my weight and never been naturally thin but was never vastly overweight either. In March 1997 I fell pregnant with Lewis and that's when the trouble started.....the weight piled on and after he was born as well because I wasn't eating properly and just grabbing food out of the fridge when I had a spare five minutes.....oh, the joys of being a new Mum! Then I got pregnant again with Sam and even though I didn't gain much more weight during pregnancy, I made up for it afterwards! Am I boring you yet! It took me ten years and many failed diets to finally get serious about losing weight so I started my diet in January this year and this is the evidence....... please do not show the first photo to small children or animals as it may scare them !!!!!...
