Together Forever!

















Good Morning bloggers, it's Saturday morning so It's time for a new challenge today at Allsorts.
This week is our lovely Kath's turn to host and she would like to see 'Anniversaries And Special Occasions'

I cut my card using Spellbinder label dies, then matted and layered up, I glittered the outer edge of the base card (doesn't show very well in the photo), and because of the layering and shape couldn't overload it with embellishments so just added some flowers and leaves.

New Beginnings
























So it's nearly time for the children to go back to school, our Bobby goes back on Tuesday, and he's not looking forward to it this year.  He goes into year six and as he's been told they will be preparing them for high school next year.  So he knows he'll have to knuckle down now Lol

It's time for a new challenge today at Allsorts.
This week is our lovely Tracy's turn to host and she would like to see 'New Beginnnings' -new baby, new job, new home, wedding etc 

My husband was recently promoted to Branch Manager, so I made him this card and it fitted this theme perfectly.  I have no idea where the idea for this design come from it just popped into my head. But I really enjoyed doing it.
