Mum's big birthday!!!

Hi Everyone,


Well it was my awesome mum's 50th birthday this past Tuesday and we had a family dinner last Saturday night for her and her twin sister Sandy. My little blossom wasn't well all day, so I spent the whole day sitting on the lounge with her asleep on me. Once my DP got up (he was sleeping after nightshift), I rushed to the dining table to whip up the birthday cards. For mum's birthday last year (or it might have been the Christmas before), I bought her the Stipple Rose stamp. After checking out SCS back when I bought it, I found some great ideas and the one that I decided to try was the split negative technique. I learnt the hard way a few things about how to best do this technique, because I seem to try stuff without looking at tutorials and stuff them up, but I guess thats a good way of learning!


Ok so while I was typing this my DD just vomited all over my laptop that is younger than she is... Now having trouble typing, I did something to it whilst cleaning it, oh dear... And now it won't work at all... so on DP's laptop.

So here is a picture of the two cards together.

Both Mum and Sandy really liked the cards and had a great time at their lunch and two dinners, and the tiramisu and lemon tarts that I made went down a treat.

Thanks for dropping by.
