Looking forward to the party in July!!

Garden Bear Birthday card

Hi all

I had an un-expected day at home today, sore and annoying mouth and have got to go back to the dentist tomorrow - that is a lot sooner than I expected! So how did I fill my time, well in Crafty Corner of course!

At last my news pens arrived today, which is a bit of luck! They came from France that's why they took so long! Here is a card I've made for Brent's Dad for his birthday - he is a keen gardener so I thought it was Ok to include a few flowers!



I much prefer this colour of bear! Still need to practice this fur lark though - Maybe one day I'll get the hang of it! I hope you like him, please let me know what you think.

Off to the dentist bright and early in the morning, depending on what they do depends on if I make it into work or not - Hopefully I will! I'll keep you posted.

Catch you soon!

Commissioned Christening Card

Hello Everyone

For once it was a lovely sunny Sunday
 in Kent (not that warm yet though) and as it was so nice to see the sun we though we would head off to Margate with the dogs. Wasn't such a good plan as the nearer we got to the coast the foggier it got, so much so that by the time we reached the beach you couldn't see much at all! Never mind the girls enjoyed their run in the sand and having a paddle in the sea (the water must have been freezing!).

So now the important stuff - I managed to finish this card off for my friend today who asked me to make a christening card for her as she is being a Godparent:-




I've used the Baptism Bear from Di's Digi Dowloads and teamed it up with some of my new papers I've just bought from First Edition. And as its for a special occasion, I've decorated the inside of the card too. 

Hope you like it - now off to plan a few more cards that I need to make in the next few days.
