HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARGARET

Sue, Maria & Margaret

Good Morning ladies,

Firstly today I would like to wish our lovely friend Margaret a very Happy Birthday, I  hope you have a wonderful day with family and friends Margaret, I hope you get to eat lots of lovely cake too!  It has been such a pleasure sharing your card making journey with you, I am so amazed at how fast you have mastered so many different Card Making skills, seeing the sheer joy and excitement when you did your first card making shopping trip warms my heart and your excitement and enthusiasm for trying new things is infectious, you are a huge inspiration Margaret, thank you for allowing me to share all of that with you.  Huge birthday hugs on their way to you my Dear Friend xxxx

Well I think that you all enjoyed the 'themed' challenge this week, so may fantastic cards, the good thing about a challenge like is that if you haven't got time to get a card made you can be sure that you can find one that you have done before that fits the challenge criteria. 

So much so that I managed to find cards for Sue, Janet, Pat,  and Val, all of whom were either unwell or too busy or on holiday, but I had cards in the 'archives' for all of them, so thank you ladies for your participation, I wonder if you will remember when you made the cards? 

Anne, I think this card is hilarious, I love the stamped image and the caption is one of those that you have to read twice! haha, thank you so much for taking part, have a wonderful holiday xxx

Brenda, Oh how cute is that Snowman, I know for sure that Sue will squeal with delight at him, she loves her cure snowmen!  Such a cute and gorgeous card Brenda, thank you so much for taking part xxx

Karen, 3 fantastic cards from you this week, thats fantastic, two amazing birthday cards and a really cute Christmas card, I love the personalised back of your cards too Karen.  The Rolls Royce card is fantastic, I would never have thought of that theme for a card, YAY for Serif Craft Artist, I can see how much you missed having it, you really inspire me Karen, I have Craft Artist 1 & 2 and I just can't get the hang of it, can I book you for a weeks tuition? pretty please! Thank you so much xxx

Lilian, I love the floral image on your Challenge card this week, such beautiful Blossom, are they peel off's that you have used in the corners or die cut corners? either way, they look amazing, I sometimes use peel-offs on my inserts and I think that they are something that most crafters have loads of as they were 'the thing' a few years back and we over look them, they can add just whats needed on a card. Thank you so much for finding the time to make a card, have fun with your visitors xxx

Lynda, two fantastic cards from you this week, a fantastic Christmas card and a lovely birthday card too, I love how you have the circles in the ascending sizes and adding the 3,2,1 adhesive gems, it works so well.  the cute buttons are a great addition to the butterfly card to, add a real pop of colour, thank you so much for taking part xxx

Margaret, I love your Christmas card this week, such a pretty snowflake and I love, love, love the font of your 'Merry Christmas'! A perfect Christmas card Margaret, thank you for taking part xxx

Maria, I just love your cute little doggy Christmas card, they look so cozy in their warm Christmas scarves!  Thanks for the lovely photo of you, Sue and the birthday girl (Margaret)! Taken at Ally Pally.  Thank you for rushing to get your card made too,
Good luck at 'ww' this morning, try standing on one leg!!! Haha xxx

Michele, 3 challenge cards from you too this week, I love the Card Candi Christmas Trees, what a fab idea, I love the colour too!  The red baubles are lovely on that embossed background, the contrast base card works so well too.  The background of the 'christmas tree' card is another touch of Michele's genius, it is the waste from adhesive dots!!! works really well Michele well done, have a lovely holiday xxx

Sonia, another gorgeous challenge card from you this week, I love all the little touches you add to your cards Sonia, the die cut panel and the stamped image behind the butterflies works perfectly, 

is that little circular sentiment a stamp set Sonia? they look so pretty with a simple flower in the centre.  Thank you for taking part xxx

Thanks again ladies, Pat, Sue, Janet & Val, I hope you didn't mind me adding your cards in myself, it's seems to have your cards and not use them, they are a great source of inspiration too.

Well I must go and get on with this weeks Sketch Challenge, ooh what to choose this week......!

Enjoy your Sunday ladies,

Love and Hugs

Sandra
