VW camper card

The card I made recently. I used the Portobello road stamp set and colored it with Copics.

Decorated candles.

These are candles I made as a present a couple of years ago but never posted the images.  I think I decorated the charger with some ivy.  In the end I didn't use the rub on words.  I was going to make little tags for the candles but decided that they didn't need them.

I just cut strips of card and wrapped them around the candles and secured with sticky strip.  I punched out a flower and stamped the centre then secured a button in the middle before sticking it onto the candle.

These are the cards my friend is making this year. I hope she doesn't mind me sharing but they are so lovely I can't help myself.

Here are some of our holiday snaps from the cruise we did at the end of September.  I need to photshop the pictures of me playing shuffleboard, before I post them, as I was a bit rubbish and didn't have enough umph to get the puck into the scoring zone!!

The photo of us enjoying a beverage was on my blackberry PlayBook so have had to put it on as a separate post. I've deleted the ones of me stuffing my face.

Well, I am finally getting sorted here in Plymouth.  I managed to get a transfer to the Plymstock branch of Morrisons so I have a few hours work each week. 

The weather has been so wet we haven't done much exploring.  I did go swimming in the sea last week when we had about 3 hours of summer!! 

Plymouth seems to have a full schedule of events.  So far I have attended a car show on the Hoe, watched some fantastic fireworks and sampled some great food at the Flavour festival.  I may have purchased a Christmas present of two.  I loved the cocktail tent!

Thought I would share some photos of cards I have made using the French Foliage stamp set from Stampin up.

I did get the inspiration for them from the gallery on splitcoaststampers.
