TIME TO CELEBRATE

Hi Everyone

Happy Friday .. .. ahead of what is hopefully going to be a happy weekend for you.

Busy week here (again) but I really do feel I am starting to win with my "definitely got to do" list as I have even had time look at my "if time is kind" list LOL!!!

This week has seen lots of cards being done and dusted for "happy couples" who have returned after their weddings to order thank you cards to thank guests for their kindness.  Call me old fashioned but I love it when people remember their manners and say thank you when people have been kind.

I have also been working on drafting what I am sure will be longest order of service booklet I will ever do .. .. 12 pages long!!  But it has made the post today so that it can all be checked off prior to what is going to be a very mammoth printing session!!

My lovely Sis was asking for some cards for the salon too .. .. her request was for 32 .. .. I managed 8 .. .. but that was better than last week because she didn't get any then! LOL!!

Even time for a little share:




This used:

Image:  Digistamp Boutique "Alyssa"
Sentiment:  Computer Generated using font "Pass The Chex"
Backing Papers:  First Edition Paper "Daydream"
Josy Rose:  Nail Heads
ProMarkers
Diamond Stickles
Glamour Dust
Ribbon from my Stash Box

I am also going to enter this into the Digistamp Boutique Challenge for June.

Think I am showing my age there by giving Alyssa blue eye shadow LOL!!

So that is me for today.

If you fancy winning a humongous bag of sequins don't forget to leave a comment on my post here so you can go into the draw on Monday.  

Have a great weekend .. .. hope you see some sunshine and manage a bit of crafty time for yourself.

Love

    Fab card Jules, love the colours and your beautifully coloured image. I'm with you on the 'thank yous'..I was always brought up to send thank you cards/letters, but sadly that's less and less now. Have a great weekend, hugs Carole Z xx

    Love your card Jules and apparently blue eyeshadow is perfectly appropriate with the 80's revival that is current in "young" world, judging by the females that come through the door with my Son!! Have a lovely weekend xx

    Hi Jules, it is good to hear you are making headway with you "to do" list! I too, love when people remember their manners and send thank you cards-I feel it is becoming a lost art but I know I made my son write thank you's after his graduation and party. Just good manners for when people have been so kind. I love, love this card, and yes, you may have been dating yourself a tab bit with the blue eye shadow, but I'm dating myself because I so remember the blue eye shadow!! lol And those of not that time, won't even know what we are talking about. lol This is the cutest card and I love how you have colored this wonderful lady. She looks like her celebration is going well! lol Hugs, Brenda

    Gorgeous card, love the colours and the papers, fantastic colouring.

    Oh dear, well I haven't worn make up for years mostly due to my eye lids covering up my eyelashes and no real lids to put eye shadow on but I decided I would wear some on an evening on holiday so guess what, I bought blue eye shadow, because that is what I always used to wear.

    Hi Jules,
    Oh you did make me laugh with your blue eye shadow comment!!

    Fabulous card as always - colour matched perfectly.

    So glad that you are making some progress with your happy couples - don't forget your ear plugs with your printing marathon.

    Hope that you are having a lovely weekend. xx
