Three cards & an update

Hi all,

Thank you all for my lovely birthday wishes, they are a bright spot in my week.

Here are a few of the cards I have made this week. The first two are for dh. The first one is his Valentines' card, I decided I didn't want a "traditional red/white" card. So I came up with this colour scheme. I even blinged it up a little by adding gold perfect pearls & water to the heart just for that something extra.


This second card is for dh's anniversary. I tried to keep it as manly as possible. So no bling was added ;).

This last card was inspired by two people:
1. Donna inspired me to use these colours. I find her choices of colours are always so very lovely.
2. Julie who uses these little letters to make some fantastic creations. I've always loved her style.

I'm sorry I've been absent for much of this week. It hasn't been one of my better weeks. I thought I had better stay away until I felt like playing nice. You know the old saying if you can't say anything nice, keep your mouth shut. My dh isn't one of my favourite people this week. I didn't even get a card for my b'day (from him or from Em via him), but I think he knows how upset I am because I did get a bunch of flowers for our 5th wedding anniversary (the day after my b'day). Although he did scare the living daylights out of me, when he came into our bedroom at some ungodly hour ie 4am(ish) to wish me a Happy Anniversary on his way home (he's dog sitting at his fathers place at the moment). I thought someone had broken in - stupid man should know better & warn his wife or turn up during daylight.

On a bright note on Tuesday I finally had my 20 week ultrasound scan. I tried do it two & half weeks ago only to be told I wasn't 18 weeks yet so they couldn't do it (grrrrrrr). So when we went back this week we are back to where we thought we where YAY!!! Bug is being very active these days, it's such a good feeling. I found out yesterday that my gestational diabetes test has come back on the high side :(. Which means on Wednesday I have to go back to do another set of tests which will take between 2-3 hours. So my wonderful friend Helen may come & visit with me whilst I'm waiting between blood tests etc.

Well thanks for "listening" to me dribble on. I will post some more cards I've made later, when Em's dad has come home. So TTFN
