Hi!!!

Hi everyone!

Back again after a few days of not posting... keeping very busy though!!

I have a good few projects to share today (didn't take pics of them all) but they are all orders I had to do!!

No CAS today though, I am here to overdose you in lots of doilies, bows, flowers and pearls!!!! Chat soon!

Cupcake toppers for Father's Day for a local Cupcake Shop (150.. yikes!)

 

A graduation picture album

A boxed card... I have finally found some boxes that fit the 6x6 cards in the UK..
welcome to the world of over embellishing!!! This card was inspired by a card by Lea Lawson I adore. 

 

 

 

 

 

Placecards for a communion lunch

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Week 19 Already!!

Hi Everyone!!!
We are heading into week 19 with Project Life so I thought I would share where I am at....

I have started to add more of my stash to my pages lately... more stamping, adding designer papers, washi tape (I finally got sucked into this trend!), labels I have lying around and some simple colouring.
It's a nice change from the communion cards at the moment!

Have a great week!
Robin

I just snapped these pics really quick this am, so click for closer pics!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is the bones of week 18 started, just have to get some time to start the journalling!

It's clear to see....

Just sharing a card I made for my Brother-in-law who is 40 this weekend! 

He wears glasses so thought this Lawn Fawn set would be fun to use!

 Have a great weekend!

Communion Photo Album Gift!

I was trying to think of something special I could make for a friends Daughter who is making her First Holy Communion next Saturday... her Mother suggested making a notebook for her. 

{I had given her Mom one that she adored}

 I headed off into the shop to buy a notebook to cover for her, but somehow walked out with a €2.00 photo album instead... so this is the 'cheap as chips' photo album recovered to go with her present! 

My new washi tape worked a treat to bind at spine and inside!!

 

 

 

 

Chat soon! Robin

Hi All!

I am still around... just a bit busier then usual!! 

First,

Hubby and I escaped the kids for a weekend to Galway!

We haven't been away without them since my third child was born!!

 

 

 

 

Pic of me enjoying a champagne mojito in the lobby! Yum!!

When we were in Galway there was a little market on the Sat. that I picked up a desert plate, now home to my tape rolls and the green square plate that now houses my Project Life cards, etc. I am trying to make my stash more accesable.. and in the process I think my table looks a lot more messy... but hey!

 

I am still working away at Communion orders... most should be done by next Sat. then it will calm down with those...

 

I had some tags to make for a friend to attach to the jelwery she makes...

and tags to make for a vintage cupcake sale... if you can see past these gorgeous cupcakes my little tags are in front... lol!

Hope to be back soon with some cards and maybe some of my Project Life that I have been working hard to catch up on! My hubby is back from his golf trip so I hopefully will have more time!!
