With Sympathy

Hello friends,

I'm doing this blog post today in memory of my beautiful sister in law Christine, on the 17th of May 2017 Christine lost her battle with cancer at the age of 55, too young. She was the glue that kept our extended family together, the one that always organised the family get together's, our go to for almost anything, nothing was ever to hard for Christine. She had so much love for us all and she has passed on these traits to her 3 children, John 23, Aaron 19 and her mini me Sarah 17, bless her. She will be so sadly missed but remembered with pride. Love you Christine.

I started colouring this rose (Roses of Love) just for fun from Make it Crafty but when Christine passed away I knew I had to finish it for her.

I coloured the Rose's with my Copic Markers - 

Petals - R85, R56, R59

Leaves - G24, G46, G28

Shadows - W5.

Thank you for stopping by

RIP Christine xx

Netball themed Birthday Card

Hello friends :)

Just popping in to share the card I made for my eldest daughter's birthday last week, she turned 22 and is obsessed with playing and umpiring Netball, training or playing at least 4 time a week.
I found this gorgeous netball image at Polkadoodles called Netball/Basketball digital image
I cropped and flipped the image a couple of times, added the GA and GD to their bibs and added a bigger ball to achieve the look I was after.

Netball/Basketball

It was a rushed card as I've been so busy lately, but the important thing is that she loved it and that's what matters :)

Thanks for stopping by

21st Birthday Card - Make it Crafty

Hello lovey people :)

Boy it's been awhile since my last post, I'm finding it difficult to have some crafting time since I started work last month :( but I had to find the time to create this card as it was for my daughters boyfriend who turned 21 last week. He enjoys going to the gym and lifting weights so this digital image from Make it Crafty was perfect!

Ahhhh relaxing by the lake - Gone Fishing

Hi all :)

Andrea here with a card I made for my nephews 23rd birthday, I think he will love the idea of relaxing by the river with a fishing rod in hand.

Gone Fishing

I was colouring this image at a girlfriends house and packed up to go home without listing the markers I used sorry.

I love this stamp, the men in my life seem to love their trucks (Utes) and fishing so I'm sure it will be used many many times :)

Thanks for stopping by
