Sarah Kay Take II!

Here's another Sarah Kay stamp which hadn't been used I'm ashamed to say so thought I'd better make use of her......she's so pretty!

I've coloured her with Promarkers and the DP is from My Minds Eye (this is more like cardstock as it is so thick!). More stitching around the edges!, some flowers from Poppicrafts with some Papermania sticky gems in the centres. The sentiment stamp is from Cats Life Press.


Must rush as I've got to take my car to the garage for its MoT - wish me luck!!!!

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 !!!!!...
