Happy Thoughts

Helloooo, well it's Friday again and that means a new Challenge over at
This week it's Anything But A Card.  There will be a prize at the end of the challenge but for this one it's a Surprise!

I had seen some jars/tins over the internet designed to add your thoughts to them so that at the end of the year you could look through them and remember some of the good things from the year.  So...I took an old Kenco Millicano tin and gave it a makeover.  I haven't added any thoughts to it yet....my sister did tell me that as I'm usually so miserable it wouldn't be very full at the end of the year but she was joking......she was joking right?!! 

Anyway hope you'll come on over and join us as we all love to see the things you make!

Happy Birthday!

Hello again! The new challenge over at
this week is a Happy Birthday Challenge.  Well timed again as a friend at work celebrated her birthday on the same day as one of our team members Jayne - Happy Birthday to you both!  The challenge is sponsored by Live And Love Crafts and if you click the button below it will take you to their shop.
We had free range to use whichever stamp we wanted this time and for this card I chose the lovely Jules by Krista at Saturated Canary.  The birthday girl loved it and we had a fab cake to help her celebrate (it would have been rude not to lol).

Also added some Silver Pearl Stickles to help the image pop
