CraftyCatz challenge 119...Valentines...and it's my BIRTHDAY...

Good Morning Girls, How you all fettlin...well today is my Birthday and I am in fine form......lol....and I have a new challenge for you at CraftyCatz, only four days to go, so lets get busy with our Valentines creations....

We are sponsored by the fabulous Stamp Fairy this week and they are giving $10.00 to the lucky winner to spend with them.





I made a heart shaped box and Tag with a SF image, coloured with Promarkers and lots of glamour dust, ribbon from Dovecraft

Not much to it really, as you can see it's all pretty standard, the stamp ontop of the box was sent to me a million years ago...almost....I just covered it with the dust...oh so shimmery....lol..
And YES, I did hit the scrim again, but only slightly..lol...
I am entering this into the challenge over at Papertake weekly, which is anything goes...with an option of add a heart or love theme....check to all...

Now then, I hope your all really well, I had a surprise visit from two of my wonderful friends yesterday, they came bearing gifts and we had a lovely afternoon, I was really honoured that they even attempted the journey in this awful weather, so thankful for fab friends...

Hope your all ok, my DIL had an accident yesterday morning, the car skidded on the ice, ungritted road again....she went through an edge and almost hit a big old oak tree, thankfully she was ok, very shaken but glad to have stopped where she did, the car, however is in a right old mess, but like I said, it can be put right, things could have been so different.........

well I am off to open my cards, oh I am soo excited....lol....have a lovely day girls, speak to you all soon....thanks for being here, hugs to all and take extra care,
Janette.xxx
