Classic and Fun

Now if I knew the challenge on Spoon full of Sugar was for a male card I would've have saved a footballer. So instead I made this card using magnolia stamps for the background and clouds and Sugar Nellie's fisherman, the sentiment is stamps away. The papers are Dovecraft I think.


Recently on my blogging travels I've been seeing some elegant cards with a classic look, so I thought I would give it a go using the CPS#72 sketch. I'm pleased how it turned out, the sentiment stamp is a docrafts and so it the little heart gem, the card would work for either an engagement or a wedding card.


Now I've never been bothered about being the youngest of five or the fact that the eldest is 15 years older than me but yesterday I became a Great Aunt again which makes me feel ancient and I'm not that old. Anyway I would like to Congratulate my niece Amanda and her partner Kevin on the birth of their son. Now where did I put those baby cards!

I've noticed that credit repair activity has to be conducted with techniques. If not, chances are you'll find yourself endangering your ranking. In order to succeed in fixing your credit rating you have to ensure that from this moment you pay all your monthly fees promptly in advance of their scheduled date. It is really significant for the reason that by not accomplishing that, all other actions that you will take to improve your credit ranking will not be effective. Thanks for sharing your ideas.
