For those Special BIG birthdays

Hiya Peeps, long time no blogging so today I've uploaded a few pics of cards I've recently made.

The images on the first two cards are by Rubber Romance which are available from Tracy at 

DIES TO DIE FOR.  The papers on the card below I bought a few years ago now, I think they were from Craftwork Cards.  Spellbinders die cuts, feather and the black and crystal gem from my stash.

The papers on this card are K & Co, Spellbinders die cuts, ribbon and pearls embellies.

Papers are K & Co, cameo from Angel Crafts, Spellbinders dies.

The paper was from a freebie download from Shabby Princess, lots of Spellbinders dies for this tri-fold card and box

More Spellbinders dies for the inside.

I don't know about you guys, but I just can't seem to stay of blogging/crafting etc, plus fit everything else in.  Life is just so hectic lately and Christmas is approaching far too quickly for my liking...... my ideal Christmas gift would be more hours in a day..... lol.

Anyways gotta rush off again, loads to do as usual.  Hope your all keeping well.

Luv 'n' crafty hugs to you all xxxxxxxxxxx   vicki xxxxxxxxxxx

At last a Scrapbook layout

Hiya peeps, today I'm going back to where my crafty hobby all began, scrapbooking that is.  Seven years ago I bought my first scrapbooking kit but like most people cardmaking soon took over.  I've been wanting to get back into scrapbooking for so long, so with the arrival of our adorable baby Grandson, Logan, what better reason to make a new start.

The papers I've used are Graphic 45 "Little Darlings", but OH MY GOODNESS, these papers are soooooooooooooooooo beautiful, it was hard to cut into them, so I bought a duplicate set, you know where I am coming from ladies, we all need to stroke/drool over our papers don't we.........LOL :-)

Hopefully this will be the start of many layouts.  Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

luv 'n' crafty hugs
