Birthday surprises!!!!!!!!!

This post is for a BIG surprise for two very special ladies who are on the Simply Betty Fan Group page on Facebook (make sure you come and say hey, they are all totally crackers but great fun hehe).


Well I was invited to a secret event by Tanja and was asked if I would like to take part in a surprise card making for two ladies on the group I mentioned above and I jumped at the chance. Not for the free images in which Betty drew and gave out to use for the cards but because these ladies are lovely and will do anything for anyone, they always get me smiling like lots of others on there, I take great inspiration from there work and just love seeing what they and others get up to. It was so nice to see how many people jumped at the chance to make cards for the ladies. All we had to do was post the cards off to Betty when we had completed them so she could post them off to the ladies. They would then get a huge box with cards for them to open on their birthday. Betty did all of this out of her own pocket and took the time to draw the images to. THANK YOU BETTY!!! 

Well here are the cards, hope you ladies like them:




Corinne hates leaves so just had to pop some in the card lol, sorry please don't stick a pin in my doll ;) x


This stamp was put on the back of both cards, hehe I love this stamp. I bought it at a craft show one year and just had to use it.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MISS CORINNE, HOPE YOU HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY!! I HOPE YOU RECEIVE ALL YOUR HEART DESIRES. X

Have a wonderful day ladies. Thank you Tanja and Betty for letting me join in with sending these and for the images. I had great fun making these cards and colouring the cards up. My cards are not linked in the hop on this blog but they are on Tanja's wasn't sure if I could make the hop blog post with health, thanks hunni xxx did this at 02:30am, took me about an hour to get this done lol. But it is done, just hope it posts when it's meant to now. Here is the list to all the other cards on the hop, got and have a look they are all fantastic, everyone has worked so hard on each card. Thanks for stopping by. x

    1. Thank you Vicky. I will be on the mend soon thanks x

      I have tried looking for this stamp online to see where it was from but can not find it :( I wonder if you could order it from somewhere what lets you make your own sayings? I have no idea what the stall was called at the craft show either, it was years ago. If I remember or find out I will let you know :)
      Off into hiding now in case Corinne comes after me for the leaves hehehe x
