Friday Sketchers Challenge #13

Have been meaning to take part in this challenge since it began but what with one thing and another, it just hasn't happened until this week that is. This week the sketch has been set by Kimmie of Canada......








The papers and image were RAKs - I think the image is Whipper Snapper but if I'm wrong, please correct me. I've coloured her with Promarkers - really lovin' these at the moment - and have run the red Bazzill c.s. through the Cuttlebug with the Spots & Dots folder, to match the pattern of the paper. Sentiment is from Cuddly Buddly and scallop was made using SU punch. Brads are from Bazzill. Hope to take part in more of these challenges in the future!

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 !!!!!...
