No Stamps Allowed!

Sorry I haven't been about for a few days but have been having a bit of a sort out with my crafting stash and have got a mess everywhere!


Anyway, it's Friday already which means time for the Stamp Something challenge and the theme this week is "No Stamps Allowed". I enjoyed this challenge because it made me realise how many embellishments and toppers I have which I haven't touched in ages, so I decided to use one of them for this card and do you know what? it was so quick to make, so think I will be using up some more of these to top up my card basket which is nearly empty!





Image: Me & My Big Ideas

Sentiment: All My Memories


Cardstock: Bazzill

Extras: Cuttlebug Strip Embossing Folders, Ribbon - Stash


I'm off to take a look at my other DT Members' creations and hope you'll have a go at this challenge.

Super sweet card Jo, love the little pink blanket on the image. Adorable. It was fun to stamp nothing, super easy to crank out a quick card! I'll be in touch soon. :)

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 !!!!!...
