Hidden Secrets

The challenge this week on Tilda & Co is:-

"....must have a hidden message on your project, perhaps pull out journalling maybe? A hidden flap?, a slider, something where a message can be hidden away from the public eye....."

I nearly didn't bother with this challenge as I thought it was too complicated and would take me too long, but then had a re-think and came up with something really simple.



The image of Edwin sat on his pencil is coloured with Prismas and Sansodor with a little glamour dust added to his wings. I've used my Nestabilities to cut him out with his background and mounted him onto Pink Petticoat c.s. with foam pads. The "just for you" sentiment is from Woodware and the "Totally Special" sentiment is Autumn Leaves. Photo anchors and brads are from my stash. Phew! just made it by the skin of my teeth as a new challenge is set tomorrow!

Will be back soon with another card and to share some good news I had today. Also to say thank you to the various people who have tagged me and given me awards.....hoping to complete all that tomorrow. See you later!

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 !!!!!
