WEDDINGS & ANNIVERSARIES 4 OF 5

Hi Everyone

Friday is here .. .. .. woo hoo!!!

I hope everyone has had a good week.

Lots crossed off my "do list" this week .. .. but lots added to it too!!  All exciting stuff though that fills my days beautifully.

Anyway, here is my 4 of 5 for my theme of the week.





This used:

Image:  Magenta (it is a wooden stamp with no name .. .. just a number written in pencil "40217 K")
Sentiment:  Personal Impressions "Everyday Words Happy Birthday"
Backing Paper:  Raspberry Road "Beach Bliss"
Martha Stewart Punch:  Traditional Scallop
Diamond Stickles
Pearls and Ribbon from the Stash Box

I spent a good bit of the afternoon with my Mum today.  I took some wedding work with me to do whilst we  chatted.

I think I should have started this wedding malarky some 20 years ago .. .. Mum would have loved to have joined in I'm sure .. .. but she can't be bothered now.  I can tell she thinks it is all a bit much .. .. but at nearly 82 I think that is allowed!!  (She would much rather play her 3D  DS).

She will ask what I am working on and look at a sample and pass comment .. .. then she will ask how many I need to make.  It doesn't matter whether I say 20, 50 or 100 - she just gives me a look of exhaustion at the thought of making them!!  LOL!!  Bless her.

Have a good weekend everyone.  I hope you find some crafty time.

I will be back with the last of my Weddings & Anniversary makes tomorrow .. .. not sure what it will be yet though !!

Love
