Stamp Something "For a Friend"

That's the challenge on Stamp Something this week and how very appropriate for me. I didn't realise until recently how many caring friends I do have both in the flesh and in blogland and I've also re-discovered my best friend! So this card is for all of my pals out there and is sent with a big hug and MWAH!!!!!


The image is Magnolia and was a RAK from Vanessa and I have coloured her with Promarkers (Tilda, not Vanessa!!). DP is Basic Grey and frame around Tilda has been made with mirricard and Bazzill c.s. using one of my oval Nestabilities. Added some doodling around the edges, flowers from my stash, a Papermania brad and Papermania sticky gems. Sentiment is from Autumn Leaves.

You must pop over and take a look at all the wonderful creations the other girls on the DT have come up with, plus if you have a go yourself, there's a chance of winning some fantastic blog candy!

Last of the Whipper Snappers (for the moment!!)

Morning all......is it morning already?!! Had a very hectic night.....got woken up at 1.30 am with the sound of vomit bouncing off the landing carpet!! Sam wasn't very well and didn't quite make it to the bathroom so spent most of the early hours of this morning trying to clean the landing carpet, the carpet in his bedroom, washing bedclothes and cleaning him up!!! Eventually got to bed at 4.30 am then was woken at 9.15 this morning by Sam asking me if I was getting up because his tummy was empty and he was hungry!!! Got to love 'em!! Anyway, at least he's feeling better. Got to try and phone the Carpet Cleaner in a minute and order Sam a new mattress as his is ruined....oh the fun of being a Mother!! Back to business now, here's a card I made during the week with one of my new Whipper Snapper arrivals.
