Occasions

Mother's Day. I celebrated it with my hubby and son. My son had a play with school mates but was frightened from all the people and spent the whole play crying in my hands. But at the end he came up to me with a rose and was so cute. Another special thing was the card I received for Mother's day (it's shown on the first pic). Don't know how many of you have crafty husbands but mine surely isn't. So, I really appreciated the fact that he tried out his hands at card making and with patience made me a very lovely card. It is much nicer and toughtful than a bought card. Luv ya Phil. For Father's day I made him a card using the Daisy and Dandelion decoupage and also made him a thank you card using the same decoupage theme. My son made him a father's day card as well, maybe he'll come out like his mum, crafty. On 2 of the photos are some communion cards I made for my twin cousins who had their 1st Holy Communion this month. The last photo is of a card I made for my hubby using the Forever Friends decoupage for our anniversary which is tomorrow.

Getting Crafty

It's been a while since I posted here. I was very busy with Easter, hubby's bday, mother's day, the fashion show and studying for the exams. The exams are over now so it's time to relax a bit (and wait for the results).
I'll just show you some stuff that I done during these months.
On a previous post I showed a bunny basket. On the picture below is showed how my son's teacher gave them to the kids. On the left is a picture of some chocolates which I gave for cousins and family for Easter. I removed the original wrapping and made one myself

with an Easter greeting. The third photo shows a card of a bunny that my son made, he made more with the rabbits different coloured for us, his grandparents and his teacher.

The other two are Easter card that I made for my hubby and for my parents. I had fun trying out the flocking powder, even though I ended up covered with the velvety coating more than the cards. The final effect is very nice and soft.

During April my hubby also celebrated his birthday. Another exuse to make cards instead of studying (was studying for May exams). One isn't enough so I made him 2, One from our son and the other from me.


April was a bit of a busy month. My hubby's uncled had a baby girl, a new cousin. And this was the card I made for the little cutie. It was very simple to make and only took me 5 minutes to make.

EASTER BUNNIES and CHICKS

Another month has passed. I was busy doing bunnies, baskets and chicks during March. These are some of the things that I had done.

.

Next week is the Holy week, so I'll take it easy on crafting and would like to go and visit some churches with my son and my hubby. Also my exams will be next month so I'd better study a bit now. My 3 year old son will be off school for 2 weeks so I'll make some craft with him. Last week he made a card for his father's birthday, with a little help from me with the glue. He had lots of fun doing it and it came out very nice. And speaking of my son, I made a few baskets for his class using the cute candyfloss and marshmallow stamps which I bought a few days ago from Binky Crafts. I love these stamps, they are sooooo cute.

More cards and invitations

It's been a while since I posted... Today it's very cold and windy and I'm freezing. I'm busy studying at the moment but that didn't stopped me making some cards and crafts. These are some of the cards and invitations that I made.
