Good afternoon from sunny (at the minute) Derbyshire. Thought i would share a card I made yesterday for my hubby for our Anniversary on 1st September. We will have been married for 35 years !!! not sure where the time has gone, as with most couples we have had our ups and downs and trials and tribulations but I wouldn't have changed a thing....</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Not sure what the embossing folder is called as i bought the embossed card sheets from a cyber friend. The hearts are one of my new dies from Memory box - it cuts like a dream. Ribbon from stash - the bow was made using the tattered lace bow-maker - absolutely fab invention...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Right off to see if my washing is dry and then to get the ironing board out !!!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I have used my promarkers to colour my nutcrafter's "dragon" and then used some freebie papers that I found in a drawer last week.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Great prize for the winner and you could also be one of the top 3 if you use a Nutcrafter image...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Good luck and hope you have all enjoyed the weekend of sunshine. I certainly have </div>

I love this die and use it on quite a few of my cards...but this time to show it off, I have just cut it from some hunkydory card stock...and then some gems and a sentiment and I think quite an elegant card...the bottom of the die looks yellow but actually it is gold..hence the gold-rimmed sentiment....</div>

Good afternoon Crafters - we have a little bit of Bingo going off at <a href="http://nutcrafters.blogspot.co.uk/2014/04/challenge-67bingo.html">Nutcrafters</a> - basically pick your row !!! and this will then give you your inspiration for your project.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The layout for my card came from a piccie I saw in a Making Cards magazine and of course the super little <b>girly image</b> is from <a href="http://nutcrafters.blogspot.co.uk/2014/04/challenge-67bingo.html">Nutcrafters</a>. Coloured with Promarkers, martha stewart <b>punch</b> for the decorative strip...and ribbon from my stash - I loved the idea of the balloon with the string attached and finally a couple of <b>gems</b> (flowers)</div>

The Papers are DCWV - baby collection and the flower is using a Martha Stewart Punch (one of my favourites) and Baby sentiment I stamped with a woodware set.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I am going to fill it with some little baby bits as a pressie for my friends daughter.</div>
