A Little Something To Say Thank You!

The challenge this week on Stamp Something is "A Little Something to Say Thank You" and I think this is very appropriate for me at the moment. I want to say thank you to all of you who are visiting my blog even though I haven't been posting any cards lately. I haven't been feeling 100% and have had a very stressful couple of days which now means I am behind on my cards and blogging....yet again!! so a big THANK YOU for bearing with me. However, did manage to make my card for the DT.....



I have used my cute little mouse from Whipper Snapper and coloured him with Brushables with some Glamour Dust added to the flowers. Papers are from Pink Petticoat printed onto lightweight card and matted with mirricard. Flowers are from Poppicrafts and pearl brads and sticky gems are from Papermania.



Hope to catch up with my cards and blogging and will also be posting some news of blog candy very soon so watch this space!! In the meantime, pop on over to Stamp Something and give the challenge a go and you never know, you may win their blog candy!

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 !!!!!
