Really pleased with how this '50' came out - was going to buy at Hobbycraft at £2.49? - made this with card on acetate strips to stand it up - glittered with Stickles - for about 20p (maybe).

Our Marian is 50 on 8.5.2011
Too close - bit overexposed - me thinks ! Happy Birthday to you - going to incorporate these pic's into an exploding box you have heard me speak about - I have such a lot of crafting to do at the moment, but want to do you something special for your 50th - we have been more like sisters than cousins. Happy Birthday again.
Having a quiet word - whilst we were in Spain
My bridesmaid.
Me dragging you in front of the camera - AGAIN - at Aunt Roses (I think) Birthday party at your house.
Remember when I dragged you with jme to have my hair cut - my FIRST cut and blow dry at Browne's in Birmingham - all they did was cut 18" off and I wanted to look like Cilla Black - what a hoot. Wednesday, 6 April 2011
Another top
I didn't like the previous box where I'd used an ink chalk in red all around the edges of the top and sides etc - it was overdone and not at all neat even though it supposed to have been distressed style. SO I cut the top off the box and made the edges neat and tidy with stickles glitter glue - and a steady hand - cuttlebugged the sides with the swirl pattern and did the same with stickles - and voila - it's now neat and tidy and I think it's OK.

Happy Mothers Day - to my beautiful mother

This could be the start of something big .......
Brings back so many memories - thats me to the right - I was 15 years old - wish I could go back for a day - but then I probably wouldn't want to come back to today - although I would, would I ?
John and Christines 40th wedding anniversary (RUBY) - gosh it's all gone so quickly - doing them an exploding box. CD's of Hit's of 60's, 70's, 80's & 90's - representing 40 years of music & I thought they'd like those years rather than more up to date stuff?
It's not finished - waiting for photo's from their kids - my nieces and nephews to embellish all the inside - will work on the outside of the box first though - STILL don't know if it's too big and whether it looks OK yet?
