On Your Wedding Day ...

Congratulations Mr & Mrs Dallow!

Long time friend Roger married his sweetheart on Sunday :) such a lovely day!

Here is the card I made

I am loving working with paper flowers again - and even though I stab myself every time, I love making the tendrals :)

Metal embellishments that have been in my stash for such a long time.

I even made a presentation box to protect the card :)

All wrapped up in a gold organza ribbon!

I am usually drawn to pinks/purples when I craft, but I have no idea why, maybe because Purple has always been my favourite colour since I was a teenager  LOL

You can see the engagement card I did for them HERE

And for those that love weddings, and I do, here are a few pics!

I caught a lovely tender moment between them!

Then it was all smiles after the ceremony was done!

Happy 60th Wedding Anniversary

Hi there good people!

I needed an extra special wedding anniversary card for the sister-in-law's parents - they celebrated their 60th Wedding Anniversary on Boxing Day!

Made with my fave dies - Spellbinders Square Nestabilities - they are just perfect for layering a central feature :)

On Your Wedding Day

One of my oldest friends is getting married today - sadly I can't be there as she is now in Queensland, but it didn't stop me making a card for her.

Taken in 1970!

One of my Fave photos - 1989

2003 

I have always been a fan of Lili of the Valley (LOTV) stamps, and one of my absolute faves is the wedding couple.

So here is the card I made for my friend Olga & her new husband Chay.

and on the inside, a wonderful wedding cake stamp that I have had in my stash since I first started stamping in 2003!

Wishing you both every happiness!  The third time's a charm!  ;)

Another sympathy card ......

A very dear friend lost her Mum the other day. 

I have known Kevina and her Mum since about 1964 - we lost touch for a little while during the 70's & 80's but thankfully, through Facebook we have reconnected again.

RIP Joan Franke (nee Brewster/Aldridge) or "Mrs B"

I went through my old photos and was most surprised that I couldn't find one of Kevina's Mum :(

but here is one of Kevina and Myself in about 1971

It is so nice to have a bit of history with one's friends :)
