Diamond Wedding Anniversary

On Thursday Arthur and Olwyn, a young couple from church celebrated their 6oth Wedding Anniversary.

It's a pleasure to introduce you to Mr and Mrs A Barnes, I did say young couple they are young in spirit.

They are a delightful couple and I love their hugs.

We had a surprize luncheon for them, Gordon our Pastor picked them up and bought them out to the Powers House who kindly lent us their home for the day.

Here's all the official cards they recieved from the Queen, Prime Minster, Governor Genral , Local member of Parilment etc.

Here's the card I made fro them, I wanted it to be simply elegant and I think I achieved it.

I have used Crumb Cake, Soft Suede, Cherry Cobbler and Mocha Morning Specialty DSP.

 Here's the inside, I have used God'd Blessings and changed from happy birthday to anniversary which is from Teeny Tiny Srentiments. I also used Soft Suede Marker and inked up only a corner of the Four Frames and stamped in each corner.

I made this matching box which has got an album inside.

Here's a close up of the rose, I love it. Tanya Bell made a Utube video this week on how to made these.

Go and check her blog HERE.

I made a Trishutter Album, which was designed Gilda Fellows for 'Oh My Word Ustamp with Dawn and Friends'.

I printed on my printer the middle panels, I found how change your ink settings so you can print in SU colours HERE, so I was able to print in Cherry Cobbler.

We had a fantastic day.

Happy Star Wars Day

May the Fourth (force) Be with You.

Tonight I went along to Guides and we made Mini Album for Mother's Day.

They all loved their albums, I hope their Mother's will like them.

We used Very Vanilla, Riding Hood Red and Basic Black Card Stock and Love Letter DSP.

The flower is made using Blossom Party Originals Die.

We used Priceless Stamp Set, I love this set.

This is a project that Amy Parker Designed for the 'Oh My Word' round of Ustamp with Dawn and Friends.

 I changed the dimensions a little bit.

I took these photo last night of my 3 beautiful children, 2 out of 3 were not impressed that I was taking photos of them.

This Darian our oldest aged 15 years old.

Here is Savannah aged 13 years old and Samuel 6 years old.

This week at Just Add Ink Challenge #66 is Add a flower.
Over at SU-Only Challenges #18 is add Butterflies.

So I will enter this album in both these challenges.

Mini Album

Last Monday's Online Class at Crafters Anonymous, Julia Leece taught us how to make mini Albums.

I only finished my album today.

The photos are from Samuel's first day at school last year.

It's made with 3 envelopes, it was very easy to make.

I have used 'Priceless' Stamp set, I am loving the flourish in this set at the moment.

I used Baja Breeze and Certainly Celery Inks. I Daubered the edges with Certainly Celery.

I made a belly band for when it is closed.
