Valentine's Something!

It's Friday already, thank goodness, which means it's time for a Stamp Something challenge, which this week is Valentines! I thought I'd make something for the two little loves in my life - Lewis and Sam - so I've made this.





I've been wanting to make one of these for a little while and thought it was ideal to put a packet of Love Hearts in. I'll be making them something else to go with it but haven't got around to that yet!!

The image and sentiment is from c.c. Designs and coloured with Promarkers - or should that be "one Promarker"!!! Papers are Bo Bunny and cardstock is Bazzill Bling, which has been run through the Cuttlebug with the Hearts Block folder. Used my Nesties to layer the little Grunter (!) and added a couple of wooden hearts from my stash and some sticky gems from Papermania. Just added some Creative Smooth c.s. to the inside with a double heart stamp from Hampton Art Stamps and some doodling. Think the boys will be more interested in the sweets than the card lol!


Had some good news yesterday - don't know if you've heard me moaning on about trying to catch up with my college work and how bored I was with Spreadsheets, well, I sat the exam yesterday and passed!! Now I've got to tackle Databases - let's hope I can complete it a bit quicker than the Spreadsheets!


Pop on over to Stamp Something and give the challenge a go - there's some fabulous inspiration from my fellow DT Members and this week the challenge is being sponsored by Whiff of Joy - well worth a visit!

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.
