This is a special order for a very good friend of mine Sharon.

Some time ago I did Monograms for her beautiful daughters to put on their bedroom doors and Shaz liked them so much that she asked me to do them again for a friend for Christmas.

These two are the monograms I did for Sharon's daughters Maddy & Kayla.

And the custom ones for her friends - this time I decided to hang a heart with their names on it which I reckon came out looking pretty good!

Cant wait for Shaz to see them!!!

I came across this on Lusi Austins blog today and this has hit a pretty raw note with me for many reasons.........I think too much about what I am scrapping and this blocks my creativity. Well, no longer gentle readers....... time to get back to basics.....Time to leave a legacy for Jessica.........

More Cards



This is how I spent most of my weekend! Making cards for my lovely customer who rang me Friday and requested an order of 30 Congratulations & 20 Thank you cards! I am loving using the Cuttlebug for my cards! The results are great!

Jessica has started swimming lessons at school this week! Her school has an outdoor pool and she is super excited about learning to swim so she can keep up with her cousins in the pool this summer!

Off for a coffee today with the lovely Steph Delvin which I am looking forward to and hopefully will be popping into the TAB to collect my MASSIVE winnings from todays Melbourne Cup Race! (yeah I know - wishful thinking!!!)

Have a good day & stay safe!!!!
