Happy Birthday mum!

I have the most wonderfully kind and caring mum.  She was a daughter, still is a wife, sister, mother, mother-in-law, aunty, and grandmother.  All who know her love her and for me, I'm proud to call her mum.

She celebrates her 73rd birthday today and just want everyone to know that she's special and adored beyond belief.  If I can be half the mother that she has been, then my two children with be lucky indeed.

She had 2 hand made cards made by me this year;

Love you so much mum; today, tomorrow & always.

Kirsty's Cyber Crop no. 6

Yep, here again with another creation using Kirsty's Cyber Crop sketch.  I really look forward to my Wednesday nights with my stash and some photos, not to mention the Ustream video and the chat with the other participants.

Our sketch this week looks like this...

And my LO looks a bit like this...

This photo is about 12 years old.  Will had been night shift the night before (hence the bleary eyed look, bless him!)  We went to Jacob's nursery for a family photo shoot and had this one of the two of us taken too. The papers are offcuts and scraps from my scrap packs (I'm sure the yellow/turquoise is from Sassafrass).  The blooms are from my stash as I'm being very good and using up bits and bobs.  The hearts are punched from craft cardstock which are then fixed over some curled wire. Alphas are BasicGrey.
