WOYWWW 08/02/12




Good morning everyone - i missed last weeks snoop around everyones desk  - shame on me. Check out Julia's Stamping Ground to see what I am talking about.............. I have been beavering making cards for my Mums birthday on Friday shes only 79. She did used to make her own cards but has "got fed up" with making them and has said that the Xmas cards she made this year will be her last handmades. To be honest she has always lacked a spark and I think she just made them to make me happy and I usually had to instigate and create for her so if she is happy then i am as well.  I have made her 24 various cards and packed them into a box so that she has 24 to use anytime she wants to - hope she likes them.


I really must get the lighting sorted out if i want to take good photos in my craft room. My mums birthday card - bright and breezy to shake off the winter blues.


and finally I have stuck 26 daisies on my car - not quite as ornate as the following stamp but I love them - the only thing is that everyone will know its me.........Hoping to get around a few blogs but it is difficult as there are so many these days.  Happy Crafting XXX Sharne

  5. What a nice bright birthday card! I'm with you, I would rather work with bright colors now to liven up the dreary days. How nice of you to create cards for your mum so she doesn't have to. Sweet that she used to play to make you happy.

  6. What a great daughter to make up 2 dozen cards for your Mom! I am sure she will appreciate them as she knows how much work they are to produce.

    Her birthday card is lovely!

  7. That's a lovely gift for your mum. I'm sure she appreciated them. I like the idea of daisies on your card, even if it does make you a bit recognisable. Kate x

  10. Your mum's card is beautiful! I'm sure she'll love the selection of cards that you made for her (to give out). What a great idea!!! I may start doing that for my friends' birthdays.

    What, you stuck flowers all over your car? That you drive? I want to see a picture. I have a VW bug and have thought how fun that would be......

    Hugs,
