Hi everyone. Thank heavens it's Friday! This week has seemed very long and incredibly busy. At school we've been getting organised for our week away at PGL in Wales next week. I'm really looking forward to it but there has been so much to do, and I still haven't organised home life for while I'm away, let alone begun to pack. Well, that will have to wait until Sunday because I'm off to Scrapbags tomorrow!
Here's a card I made for a colleague at work who is celebrating a very special birthday today. I used some Craftwork Cards products that I found whilst I was tidying up over the summer, as well as glitter and ribbon. The sentiment is SU.
The next card was a commission from a friend at work. I've made a lot of these concertina cards over the years, but never for a wedding. It's very plain and simple, but I took the lead from their wedding invitation. I didn't have any letters that were the required size, so with Mark's help, I braved it and dusted off my Silhouette die cutting machine (I've been too scared to use it!!). I'm so thrilled with the results and will be using it a lot more, particularly in my scrapbooking.
I used SU card stock - Not Quite Navy and Very Vanilla. and my fantastic Simply Scored to make the folds.
And finally, just cos I'm so proud, Edward got an award tonight at his cricket presentation evening - Most Improved Player for Under 14s. Well deserved (yes, I know I'm biased!).
Well that's me for tonight - I really must go and organise paper and photos for tomorrow. If I don't see you before, I'll see when I get back from Wales - goodnight :)
Take care and thanks for popping in.

Two beautiful cards, as always, Michelle. And well done Edward.

The cards are gorgeous Michelle - especially that wonderful concertina card. I think it makes a very special wedding keepsake and I love the simplicity and those striking colours. What a lovely photo of your Edward - congratulations on his award! Vicky x
