Die Cuts at Charisma Cardz

Good morning all,

I hope you are all well and looking forward to the weekend. I have had a rather busy week. In the last 12 days we (Myself, Hubby and Little Man) have been to 9 hospital/dentist appointments! I have had an enlarged lymph node removed from my neck and my 4 year old 'Little' Man has had root treatment to save a bad back tooth which set me back £350 pounds...ouch! To top it off, my Mum is in hospital too..... not so happy days!

Anyway, enough about me, i am here to share with you a card i made for the Charisma Cardz challange this week.

The theme this week is: DIE CUTS. Easy right?

I made this card using this fabulous 'freebie' sentiment from the amazing Desert Diva - Hannelie.  Thank you Hannelie, i love this sentiment :D  Actually, when i made it, I had my Mum in mind because she is definitely one amazing girl and has been through so much in the past three years.  Love You Mum!

I hope you can join us in this challenge and if you pop over to Charisma Cardz, you can view the beautiful DT inspiration.  Hope to see you there!

Thank you for taking the time to visit today.  Have a great day.

Big hugs, Jill x

You are Amazing Girl!

Good afternoon all,

 

Happy Sunday to you all.  I am here today to let you know about this week's fab challenge at Sentimental Sundays.

 

The theme is easy .... Anything Goes.  Told ya! :D

 

I was lucky last week to win a couple of digis from A Creative Need (Thank You Deena) so i have used one on my card today.  I picked the 'Dress Form' image and thought i would try something different! The sentiment (which i really really love) is a 'freebie' from the super talented Hannelie.  You can visit her blog Desert Diva here.  Thank you Hannelie (again!).

 

The papers are a mix from my stash which i distressed, i paper pieced the dress and added a little distress ink to the edges.  A bow and a few pins complete this girly card.  Would love to know what you think, good or bad! ;)
