Happy Birthday Carly!

It's one of my Sisters' birthday today (got three sisters and three brothers!!) and this is the card I made for her. I think it was one of the quickest cards I have ever made as I was seriously pushed for time with everything else that has been going on recently!



I already had this image coloured (Magnolia) so searched through my scrap box for some papers to match......think they's DCWV Glitter collection. Tilda has been coloured with Promarkers (what else!) and used som Bazzill c.s. scraps for layering. Sentiment is SU and also used SU punch to layer it on.

Must rush as loads to get on with.

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 !!!!!
