HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEA

Yesterday my gorgeous daughter Beatrice turned 14. Although she had to go to school, we surprised her with lots of Birthday presents before school, and dinner at her favorite restaurant.

For her card I used this weeks new DECONSTRUCTED SKETCH.



How sweet is little Marci with her panda, from LaLaLand crafts

And I couldn't resist a picture of the Birthday girl, with her makeup themed Birthday cake that we made for her.




And of course this weeks awesome sketch by the super-talented Jen.

SOME MORE HAPPY NEWS!

Sorry I didn't make it back as promised, but I still have my second piece of happy news to share.

A couple of weeks back I entered a card in the DT call for TIDDLYINKS STAMPS Although I didn't make the team, Christy invited me to be a guest designer! Woohoo! I am so thrilled.

Congrats to all the lovely ladies who were chosen for the DT and I can't wait to design alongside you soon when I am a guest.

So, to celebrate I have used a Tiddlyinks image for this week's Deconstructed sketch #113.




And here is Jen's fabulous sketch.




I hope you have time to play along with us this week.

Please stop by the Dt girls blogs and leave them some love.

MORE THAN ONE DIE

I have super-exciting news to share today. 

 Irina and Rosie from LaLaLand crafts have asked me to join their team for the next 2 months as a guest designer! Beyond thrilled and honored doesn't even begin to describe how I am feeling right now. To be guesting alongside such a talented group of ladies from around the world just blows my mind.

So thank you Irina and Rosie, for this wonderful opportunity. I will be joining "Team Monday" for August and September, with today being my very first post.

The theme for this week is " more then one die". So, I went a little overboard and used four!






The stamp is from the brand new release and is called Sassy Princess Marci . I have also used one of the sentiments that comes with the stamp.
