Celebrate in Style!

Evening All, Hope you're all well and having a lovely week....I love bank holiday weekends, don't you? It's already Wednesday evening! Woo hoo!

So, here I am with a card for two different challenges.....


I've used a collection of pink papers to create this Birthday card fit for a stylish friend. I've cut a little dress out of pink paper, wrapped it with ribbon and added a little sparkly gem for some glamour.

This card fits in with the "celebrations" challenge over at the Creative Cottage Challenge Blog. Whatever the celebration, the ladies at Creative Cottage want to see your cards! The DT have all created gorgeous cards for inspiration.

This card also fits in with the "Just One" challenge at Papertake Weekly - where there must be just one of something....it can be one colour, one image, one piece of paper.....anything really. As you can see I went with colour! Again, the DT have created some gorgeous cards to inspire us.

I'm on a bit of a mission at the moment....I really want to find a pair of jeans that fit me properly! I'm fed up of buying jeans that seem to fall down or that are just generally uncomfortable! So, I've decided to go on a shopping spree where I concentrate soley on finding the perfect pair of jeans! My poor sister has volunteered to help me...I think I'll have to buy her a nice cake and a cup of coffee in exchange for her assistance! Do any of you have a make of jeans that you'd recommend?? I know one of Girls Aloud travelled to America to find the perfect pair of jeans....I hope I don't have to travel that far! Although a shopping trip in America would be very nice!

Anyway, I'm off to make more cards. The stamps I won last week have arrived and I want to get stamping! Thanks Catherine - they're lovely.

Thanks for stopping by today,

Hi Wedgie, just love this petty card. Thanks for sharing it with us us at Papertake Weekly.
PS. I found the perfect pair of jeans when I was 17 (I'm 52 now!) They were made by Falmers and made my legs look long and my bum great. Sigh... no such luck these days ... the elasticted waists are calling but I'm not going there, lol! Good luck with the search xx
