FLASHBACK FRIDAY

HEHE Its the mean old challenge again called FLASHBACK FRIDAY!  If you've not taken part its where you post up your first blogged card of a given theme.  I think all us oldies should take part to encourage the newbies!

The theme this time is "Summer Colours"
Now I've already shown my first ones that would be summer colours for the stitching challenge (Here if you want a laugh again) so I shall go to next in line. 

I'll show a few from FEBRUARY 2008 :)

This one is from 1st Feb HERE and probably my first round card and I made a matching keyring too - go me!

They aren't so bad for a flashback so I've dug around in February some more to bring you these corkers!

This one is from 23rd February 2008 and interestingly I just did this stamp yesterday so look on post below - I think I'm a bit better at colouring now ;)

BWHAHAHA!!

Come here there's more!  My 1st Sugar Nellies!

And another Tilda - Oh dear!

All these are February 2008 - HERE if you want to see the write ups too coz theyre just as bad lol!


Also in that month I had my sexing scan with Molly Moo - She's 3 today!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY PRINCESS POOKUM PIES XXX

A couple of weddings

Yay we're finally back on blogger - gosh how traumatising was that lol!  Doing a quicksh post before beddy byes, I'm off to Port Sunny in the morning doing some demos for The Stampman. I'm demoing "Winging It" so if you haven't seen winging it demoed before please do pop along hehe!

Got a couple of cards to show today, the first one is a brand spanky new rubbah from Crafts & Me and is Melody Bride, or similar, I actually don't know as she's that hot off the press but she's by one of my fav designers Lemon Shortbread aka Vera.  You'll find Vera's stamps here at Crafts & Me and she will be available soon! 
I've used papers by Bearly Mine, added ribbon, lace, pearls and flowers and on the image which is coloured with promarkers I used some flowersoft (sweet pea) and scribbled some clear sakura stardust on and quickly spread out to avoid streaks and the dress is super sparkly, I think you can see it better in 2nd pic :)  The flowers are also glittered with stickles.

Hope you like her, I've been after a bridal stamp I like for ages and she will do nicely!  I'd like to enter into...

FLASHBACK FRIDAY

Oooh dear Amy over at Flashback Friday is wanting to see the first wedding cards we blogged *gulp*  I thought I'd post it along with the new Melody above to show I've got a bit better haha!  These were both blogged on same post here and are from 25th Sept 2008.  First one is a Magnolia couple which I actually quite liked but nobody else seemed to like that stamp much, coloured with versamagic (watercoloured)  Second one I think is Anitas and I've probably still got it.

Come on join in, yours cant be any worse!

Flashback Friday

I keep seeing this Flashback Friday challenge so thought I'd take the plunge as I hope I've improved a little since then ha!  This fortnight they want to see the first card you posted using stitching.  That was easy for me as it was on my first ever blogged card so *deep breaths*

Its a lovely Magnolia coloured with watercolour pencils and marvy brush pens - loooooong before I got promarkers!  The stitching is faux and I think the paper was out of a magazine!  I'm terribly sorry if I sent this to you in a swap haha! 

Just so you can ROFL a bit more heres another one from the same post...

These were originally posted on 31st Jan 2008 HERE  I hope you feel inspired you can improve now lol! x
