Little Scrapbook Card Challenge

Here is a card I created using a sketch from Little Scrapbook Shop for the January 08 Cybercrop Challenge

Gotta luv em!!!!

I was working away in my craft room tonight and Tammy walked in for a chat.

She was saying how its terrible how some of her friends dont treat them mother's very nicely and that a lot of them are embarassed by their mothers and wont talk to them.

She then went on to say "its different with you and I, isn't it Mum?" "I reckon we get along really well!" I replied with "yeah, I reckon we do alright - we may not always agree on certain things, but its great how we can talk to each other about anything!"

How cool is that. I was very proud of her - she isn't afraid to tell me anything or show her emotions. Hey - we have the odd fight - what mother and daughter wouldn't? I often think how great it is that she will approach me about anything but the fact she said what she said and how she said it was gorgeous.

Just thought I'd share it with you.

I would like you to use the colours I have used - green, blue, pink, red, yellow, turquoise.

My check up

Went back to the doctors to report in with my blood readings for the diabetes. He was really pleased with how they are going - especially during christmas. It was hard but I got through it...........I understand now that is not negotiable. I have to work hard at losing some weight and therefore start feeling better.

I also have a referral for a dietician and a diabetic educator. Things will be lookin up soon.

Too funny...............LOL.

Josh had some birthday money - his birthday was in November. I told him to hang on to his money until after Santa had been - you just never know what you'll get from Santa. It was driving him crazy hanging onto it. He asked me today if he could spend it - so spend it he did.
He did alright actually. He bought some little lego spiderman set, a new bike helmet and a Gilligans Island 6 DVD Set. We sat and watched it tonight and it is so funny. Scary part is that Gilligan reminds me of myself sometimes - he does the craziest stuff.

Do you remember Gilligan's Island? I loved it then and I still love it now. I always wanted to be like Maryanne..............LOL.

....your True Colours are beautiful like a Rainbow.

Here is a card I made for a challenge at Caardvarks using RickRack.

Completed a couple of challenges over at Alison Ellis Designs

Here are a couple of challenges I completed today for the December Cybercrop over at Alison Ellis Designs.

The first was a sketch challenge for a card and the second was a Boxing Day Special - we had to alter a chocolate/sweets containter. I turned a little chocolate box into a special little box to hold some die cut shapes as I cut them up.
