Challenge 12 - Vintage at Dragonfly Dreams

Challenge 12 - Vintage at Dragonfly Dreams

This month is one of my favourites as I love vintage so I hope you like what I have made for this months challenge:
I just love this image of the little girl and just had to use it, the DP is from Bearly Mine who are sadly closing down to the new EU tax laws, I shall miss her terribly as I love her papers. Our Sponsor for this month and where I received these wonderful images is Nice Crane Designs I hope you will pop along and check his store out.

Hope you have enjoyed your short visit to my blog.

DS4J Christmas progressive challenge

Good morning friends,
It is very mild here this morning so it doesn't help when I'm trying to think of Christmas *laughing* I decided to try something new for this card, I saw the tutorial on YouTube and thought I would try it one day :) so here is my card.

The paper I cover it with is from the Gilded Winter collection by First Edition, it is such beautiful paper, it is card really but I used it as paper so the card it nice and strong. The plaid is some I had in my stock. I will make more of these cards but I would do it so it is on the side.

Thank you popping by for a visit, I do hope you will have time to write and tell me what you think :)

1st Wedding Anniversary Album

I thought I would show you an 1st Wedding Anniversary Album I have made, well part of it at least :)

I hope you have enjoyed viewing this album. I used the Martha Stewart folders which comes in the decorative design which helped me a great deal as I really wasn't in a crafting mood when I had to make this *smiling* but it seemed to hit the nail on the head and was accepted as wonderful thank goodness :) There is still a lot of work in this album and i was pleased with the result. I hope you will leave me some comments on what you think?
