Turtley Awesome!!

Good morning, wow what a week I've had.....I started a new job on Tuesday & boy I love it. Yeah really strange thing to say but I do. The girls & the boss are great & we have a giggle. As long as the work gets done they are fine & I have my own money to spend again whoop whoop!!! I know Nige has always said his earning are ours, I hated asking him for money to get glue or card blanks etc....the rest I can make do as I have enough stash to open my own shop....it was just the basics & I hated asking him!!  But I don't have to anymore....I'm only working 12 hours a week, but that's enough for me, I will be spending my pennies wisely lol!!

Chicago Rock

Ok so I am here today to share a commission with you, one of the lads that Nige works with asked me to make a wedding anniversary card for his wife.....I said ok, teddies, flowers, bunnies etc....

NOPE, he wanted a couple kissing, not so difficult. But then he asked if they could be standing in front of Chicago Rock Cafe, because thats were they met.

So with some help from my fabulous crafty friends on Facebook, I came up with this.....

Its on an 8" square card base....I quite like it now its finished lol!!!
