Catching Up...

Hello all,

Hope life is treating you well and your week has gone off to a good start. I can't believe where time has flown to, but I've set aside tonight to do a bit of catch up blogging because it's been too long!

First of all, thank you to Aimes, Alison, Carole, Nicci, Nicki and Sarah H for sending me a Blog Award. It's really appreciated and so sorry it's taken till now to mention it. If you'd like to play and you feel you're worthy of this blog award :) please feel free to award yourself with the Blog Award below and do the following:

1) To thank the person who gave you the award, list their blog and link to it.
2) Write and list 10 honest things about yourself.
3) Put a copy of The Honest Scrap Logo on your blog.
4) Must select at least 7 other worthy bloggers and list their links.
5) Must notify the bloggers of the award.


So, what have I been up to lately? Lots of cards I guess, both for personal and a few commissions. So without further ado, here are some creations I've recently been working on below:

Wedding Cards

A card using both Stampin' Up! products - "Happy Hearts" stamp set and my trusty Cuttlebug Embossing Folders.



A card inspired and cased by Clair & Sharni using Stampin' Up! "Mr & Mrs" stamp set and Taffeta ribbon in Pretty in Pink and Kraft.


Big Birthday Celebrations

Happy 40th Birthday
using "Seeing Spots" stamp set.


Happy 80th Birthday using Patterns Designer Series Paper and Double-Stitched Grosgrain Ribbon in Rose Red.


Okay, I think I'll stop posting for now, then I'll have some more cards left to upload for the remaining of the week :)

Bye for now,


Alex
