Just For You

This is a card I made yesterday to send to a blogging buddy. It was quite quick to make as I had already coloured in the Paris Tilda a few weeks back, which by the way, was done with Prismas and Sansodor.




I've kept the card fairly simple again by covering two-thirds of it with Bazzill c.s. and then attaching some ribbon from my stash across the join. Cut out Tilda with my Nestabilities, then added three brads from my stash to the top right-hand corner, two flowers and brads to the bottom right-hand corner and finally, a Woodware sentiment stamped directly onto the Bazzill c.s. Ooh, nearly forgot, rounded the corners of the card!

I'd like to say a big thank you to all of you who have entered my blog candy....I'm so glad I don't have to pick a winner as they are all fabulous!! Anyone who still wants to take part can still do so - it closes at Midnight tonight and the boys will pick the winner out of the hat tomorrow when they get home from school over a nice piece of birthday cake!!

See you tomorrow!

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 !!!!!
