Ismaki Sketch Challenge

It's the first time I've taken part in the Ismaki challenge but really liked the look of the sketch, so thought I would have a go!





I've coloured this little cutie with Promarkers (what else?!) and framed her with doodling (again!). Used Basic Grey papers - sorry, can't remember which ones they are as I had all the pads out yesterday! Used my Cuttlebug swirls die and a sentiment from Woodware. Finally, added some sticky gems from Papermania.


Off to start cooking the roast dinner now.....enjoy the rest of your Sunday.

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 !!!!!
