In the Pink!


Slowly starting to catch up with all my crafting projects which means the house is a tip!! Completed my ATC for the Tilda and Friends ATC Challenge which this week is "In the Pink".

I have used Magnolia Tingla which has been coloured with Prismas and Sansodor and glamour dust added to her wings and the bottom of her top. The papers are Pink Petticoat, the plain piece has been run through my Cuttlebug with my new Swiss Dots folder.....I say new, however, I've had it a while but this is the first time I've used it! Also used a scrap of mirricard from my stash. The sentiment is part of the Just Hatched set from Papertrey Ink, the flower is from Poppicrafts, sticky gems are Papermania and the brad is from my stash.

Hope to be able to show some more tomorrow as I've got a couple more creations but I'm waiting for ink etc., to dry! Off to Lewis's Maths Cafe this afternoon.......parents are invited to go for a coffee and a cake and the kids serve you and have to work out the change etc., so I was baking a big chocolate cake at 8.00 pm last night for him to take! This will definitely be a test for my diet....wish me luck!!!

Another cutie Jo! Love that Tilda. Great pinks with that mirror paper. They really pop. I like that swiss dot embossed paper, must get that one! :)

You've colored Tilda so beautifully too. Such a sweet card! :) Have fun with the cake, a little nibble couldn't hurt! :)

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 !!!!!
