the first card is the engagement card that I made for my Mum & her future husband & below is their Wedding card that I made (the front & opened) :)

the next card is a Vow Renewal card that I made for my younger

Sister & B.I.L. :)

this next card I made for my best friend for a couple she knew :)

the next is a card for a stranger.. the lady emailed me after seeing some of my creations on Pinterest & asked if I could re-create a card she'd spotted lol  Obviously I changed it slightly but she still loved it :D

this next card was for a favourite Aunty of mine who is actually ill atm & with a not good outcome sadly :(

lastly this card below is a card I made for a couple online they do live cooking videos

to help other people learn how to cook or just give people new idea's for meals lol

they are called Pat & Paul... Paul is vegan so he cooks very different things to Pat lol :D

50 & poorly :(

hello lovelies my post is about a very close friend of mine whom I have met several times we first started chatting online on a game site called WORDOX around 1999 lol it was based on Scrabble but it was a little different in the scoring... colouring etc (I can't go into specifics coz I honestly don't have a clue how to explain it properly lol) Anyways... my lovely friend Jess is in hospital atm :( & yesterday was her 50th birthday :( I decided I wanted to cheer her up & also celebrate her special day... so I created the card below & posted it to her in the hospital
(fingers crossed she receives it with no problems lol) here is my creation :)

Hopefully you will get the reference of the card since you've read the previous text LOL
