Cheesecake Dreams

Hi,

Well i'm back to walking 4 year old son to school and back, OH has decided i should take Whisper too ( I think it's because he's fed up with doing it), i'm still using 1 crutch as i'm scared that the children & parents will knock into me.

For todays card i've made another Valentines cards to send out to the troops as i thought i had 10, but i actually only had 9 !!, i've used a stamp that i've had for about 18 months, but was made in 2000. I found some fabby BG papers that have not been used yet and fortunately for me, one of them was text, so i'm able to enter Cupcake Craft and i finised it off with some heart buttons and lush blue ribbon. I also used for the first time my Cutterbee, but i think i'm going to have to practise with it, to get my faux stitching up to standard.

Today's Card and Challenges :

What an adorable image Sam and what a wonderful thing to be doing with Valentines cards. Never heard about this before, but how nice for our troops to be able to have cards to send to their loved ones.

Thank you so much for sharing with us at Penny Black and More this month and good luck with the draws for all the prizes on offer.
