Annie's Birthday Candy


It has not been a good day!! The toilet won't flush and have spent most of the morning trying to get hold of a Plumber and pouring buckets of water down the loo to flush it....I just didn't realise how often my boys spent a penny.......and the rest!!

Managed to actually get a couple of cards made this afternoon and this is the first one. Annie of Ink 'n' Rubba celebrated her birthday last week and is offering some fabulous birthday blog candy. All you have to do is make a girly birthday card with flowers on it and pretty papers.


The stamp is from Whipper Snapper and I've coloured it with Brushables and added some Glamour Dust to her belt and hairband. The pink c.s. is from Bazzill and the papers are the Sugar Dumpling range from Blonde Moments. Also used some mirricard from my stash. Sentiment is from Woodware, flower is from W H Smiths and brad and sticky gems are from Papermania.

Will be back later with my other offering!!

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 !!!!!...
