Birthdays soon come around A card for an extra-special Prince who turns four today

and a very cute card too, Jane

A lovely card Jane, I cannot believe that he is four already.

Saturday was my sister's birthday, so of course I made her a card

I am getting back into my parchment craft, in fact I have made three in the past few days, this is one of them. The flowers are not painted, they are just what is called a rub-on, a bit like using Lettraset.

Such a beautiful card, Sue1 Love it!

Me and Mum have been extra-busy making Christmas Cards early this year (and still more kits to get through! ), too many to show yet. But here's a box we made from a kit, which will be filled with goodies over the festive season ... yum!

What a lovely box Jane.

You girls have been busy! Really puts me to shame
Love everything!

Finished today. This card is for a colleague of mine to give to his wife of 37 years for her birthday. He stipulated hearts and roses. Aw sweet.

Very nice

Another stunning example of your patience, Sue. Gorgeous card.
I dusted off my bits'n'pieces to make this card to congratulate my friend on the birth of her first child, a little boy named Léon. I don't usually go for glitter or sparkle, but it seemed right this for this card:

Oooer, I like that.

Thank you Sue!
I do believe you had a word with Mr Postman, m'dear, because today, on exactly the right day, he delivered this little beauty to my doorstep:



It's just so detailed, I can't even begin to imagine the patience and time you put in to make it, and I'm delighted to receive it! Thank you so much!

I am glad that it arrived on time, I was a bit concerned that I had left it too late. That represents about 20 hours at a guess.

Wow!!!
Timing was absolutely perfect

I absolutely love all the parchment craft Sue has made!
Me and Mum have been busy card-making over the last few months, photos soon xxx

A card made using some paper lace sent to me by Sara.

Just Gorgeous!

Gosh, I missed that one, it's lovely, Sue!

Although I have been neglecting this thread, me and Mum have been busy bees making Christmas cards through the year, this year even selling some, to raise money for a charity
But I did receive this beautiful card two weeks ago ...


.. made by our lovely Sue. Thank you SO much xxx

I recognise that.

The shininess doesn't do the cards justice. This year the "Princes" have got "The Snowman and the Snowdog" related cards from their "Mama"

After almost eight years living right next door to me and Mum,my sister and brother-in-law reluctantly decided to move to a bigger house, closer to one of their daughter's and the two "Princes". On the up-side, they're only a ten minute drive away


New Home card and gifts

You will miss them but at least they are not far away. That is a lovely card.

I am going to close this and open a new one as this is a bit long now. Thanks all for making this one so lovely with all the beautiful craft photos.
