Pink and Lilac...

Hi there on this sunny afternoon. I'm here feeling a bit sorry for myself as I'm full of a cough and cold and don't feel like card making. So I'm going to show you a couple of cards I made back in January, doesn't that seem a long time ago! My mum's and mum-in law's birthday is a week apart in January and as I'm still recovering from Christmas I tend to make them similar cards. This time I used lili of the valley Thinking of you stamp which is really sweet with it's teddy in an envelope and You are my sunshine stamp. I'm sure they don't mind getting similar cards but they can compare them as we all live near one another, nearer than when we all lived near Manchester.
Anyway here's the cards for today









Card Recipe

Card blank 6"x6" and white stamping card- Craftwork Cards
Cardstock- from local stationer
Paper- Papermania Lucy Cromwell

I hope you like today's cards. I think today I would have added more elements to the cards but then again after the Christmas preparations and the festivities themselves who has the energy, not me lol!

Here's hoping you're all keeping well and having a great weekend. Thank you for your visit and have a big hug from me

    Hi Debra I hope you are feeling much better today. Sorry I was not around to send comments at the weekend as we were at relatives Golden Wedding Celebrations in south Yorkshire. What beautiful weather we had all weekend, today is very grey here.
    I do intend on spending my day creating as I have lots of birthdays pending. I love your super cute little teddy bear cards & well done for making & giving handmade cards in January. The spellbinders die you have used is lovely & your colouring. Karen x

    Hi Debra. Hope you are well, & Thank you for your kind comments on my card.. I hope you had a great time at the show & meeting up with Carole.
    I went clothing shopping & lunch with my friend as it was her birthday yesterday. I did have a great bargain last week as I purchased a new big shot machine online at a really good price from Hobby craft (it arrived on Saturday, not used it yet).
    I need to save some pennies as I have already made a wish list for the show next weekend .Hugs Karen x
