It's that time of year again!

When I have to make lots of birthday cards.  Made myself sit down this morning and at least make two of them.  The problem is that I've got something on every day next week plus next Friday we're off to look after our grandchildren whilst our daughter goes skiing....can't be bad, but a big bonus is that we spend some fantastic quality time with Lucie and Charlotte. So I've got to try and get them made before we go.



Used Dina Wakely stamps on both, which are available from here


Just thought I share with you the stamp I had made sometime last year, which I put on the back of my hand made cards, still makes me chuckle.

Hope you all have a good weekend.
