Stamp Something Red, Green and Gold!

Crikey, it's Friday already - I wish I could stop the clock for a week so I could catch up! It's challenge time on Stamp Something and this week the challenge is "red, green and gold". Suits me as I've got a zillion Christmas cards still to make!!




Stamps: Magnolia, Penny Black

Colouring: Promarkers

Papers: Blonde Moments

Extras: Glamour Dust, Bell from Lindt Easter Bunny!


Thought that the "gold" parts looked a bit too yellow, so found a little gold bell I was hiding away in my stash - knew it would come in handy for something!


This week's challenge is being sponsored by our very own Denise of Whimsy Stamps so well worth entering!

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 !!!!!
