Thank you to my friends

Just a quicky about Danni....well the school didn't shut, there were protests and the local paper tried to get them to close but they wouldn't....we heard that on Monday the teacher who had 'swine flu' was back at school....I foned up my doc and she said the school was safe now...not sure how really cus they hadn't had any extra cleaning done....so Danni is now back at school and everything seems to be ok....thankfully...

I just wanted to say a big THANK YOU for all you support over the last week ...emails, phone calls, text messages and for just being there, huge hugs xxx







Well this card was made for a very special person...my bestest bud Louise http://the-lou-natic-asylum.blogspot.com/ pop over cus shes got some fab cards and always good for a giggle....This card took me blooming ages, the cutting out around the edge alone took 5 hours...Lou has told me she is gonna frame it...the little darling lol...The thing is if I had made that card for a none crafter they just wouldn't of appreciated it, so it makes it worth while when its appreciated...loves ya babe!!





thanks for looking

WOW, WOW, WOW, Shell this is amazing, i agree the work that goes into parchment is unreal, you can sit for hours and hours and think you have acheived nothing, but when the results are like this it is a master piece and i'm sure it will be treasured for many years to come, you have come so far in such a small space of time, keep it up hun,
WELL DONE YOU!!!!!!
