Hi Everyone
GUESS WHO ?!?!?!?
Well I predicted a huge manic week this past week in the House of Hearts .. .. and it was!!
I can't believe all that has been done since the last time I posted a card and I finished the week absolutely wacked! All of it was wedding work and nothing I could share .. .. sorry :-(
But I had a good sleep last night .. .. firstly on the sofa and eventually in bed .. .. and then this morning I got up full of energy, super excited and hyper yet again!! Yay!!!
Two of my "happy couples" got married this week. One yesterday and one today. The weather today has been beautiful and even yesterday wasn't too bad .. .. I am just hoping the weather was OK for the photographs yesterday.
The huge roll of bubble wrap was used to wrap two table plans that were finished and picked up this week .. .. and even though some has been taken off and used it looks larger than ever!! I think it is growing daily LOL!!!
Anyway today I have made a card to give to a very special young man. He loves trains and would happily sit and travel on a train all day, all night and probably all week given the chance!!
We are out for a special meal to celebrate his birthday tomorrow so will be eating our dinner at 1.00pm .. .. gosh that will be a shock to our system .. .. but a lovely one! I can't remember the last time we ate our Sunday dinner at such a respectable time LOL!!!
So here is my make for a very special young man called Neil xx
This used:
Image: Inkadinkado "92559-M"
Sentiment: Lili of the Valley
Backing Papers: Cuddly Buddly
Josy Rose: Nail Heads
Nestabilities: Eyelet Circles
Charm and Cord from the Stash Box
This coming week is going to be as busy as last week (but not manic hopefully) .. .. lots of wedding work and wedding samples for possible "future happy couples" .. .. but I am also hoping to be able to post a few cards starting with my snippet make tomorrow .. .. which I have to confess I made today in readiness as tomorrow I need to make a mountain of favour boxes (as well as celebrate Neil's birthday).
OK off to get the evening meal finished.
I'll catch you tomorrow with my snippet make.
Have a good evening and I hope you didn't faint at me actually managing to post!!
Love
otherwise known as "the stranger of blogland!!" LOL!!

Wow, that is a nice card for a male person. Always find it hard to make something masculine. (got that word from google translate)
I simply love all your cards. I hope I'll be as good as you one day.

Good morning Jules, robotic fingers here a.k.a. B X.
I'm slowly getting round to everybody and so far so good the voice recognition system is working a treat.
From what you have told me of Neil he is going to just love your card and also having everyone together for a birthday lunch.
Enjoy today and your dinner out.

Hi Jules,
I think I'm more of a stranger in blogland than you! I haven't even got a card to show.
This card is fabulous and will be perfect for Neil, I'm sure. Love the image and the clever backing you've used. The key is the perfect finishing touch.
Aww this is really fab Jules! what a wonderful image… the papers are perfect and I love the way you've done the twine and key… I bet he loves his card!!
Hope you are enjoying the sunshine!
