HAPPY B-DAY

Hi Everyone

Sorry but it is just a flying visit from me tonight.

Lots still to do and it is gone 8.00pm already .. .. .. not bad I suppose because I did think it was 9.00pm so that was a nice surprise when I did a double take at the clock  LOL!!!

But worse than that it is AUGUST already!!  Where did the rest of the year go?!?!?  I'm not liking the fact that life is flying by at a super speedy rate of knots  :-( 

Anyway .. .. here is my share for today:




This used:

Image:  Stampendous "M215" Changito B-Day
Sentiment:  Pink Petticoat
Backing Papers:  DCWV "All About Boys Stack"
Martha Stewart Punch:  Traditional Scallop
My Trusty Sewing Machine
Josy Rose:  Nail Heads
ProMarkers

and that is it!!!

Thank you to everyone who commented last night to say where the papers I used yesterday came from.

It always seems brilliant that there are lots of papers in the pads and packs we buy .. .. but boy do they stick around for ages .. .. especially when we are left with the "dodgy patterned ones" or when they are 12 x 12's.  Some of mine seem to have been hanging around for ages .. .. especially the ones I bought in the "early days of crafting".  Must make more of an effort to use some of them up!!

But having said that my gorgeous "Ella Blue" 12 x 12 papers can last for as long as they like .. .. I never ever want  to be without some of those to play with!!  It will be a sad day when the last page from that stack goes.

Have a good evening everyone.  Are you watching the football?  Hubby has settled himself down to watch .. .. but from where I am sitting it doesn't sound very exciting.

Love

  14. Time started flying by for me the day I left school and has only got faster as the years go by. Scary isn't it.
    Thanks for finding the time to share this cute image (and super card) with us - and no - not been watching the football - it's good to be in sole charge of the remote.
