Hello, I'm back after a few week's break from blogging. Thank goodness one can "post-date" blog entries which I did with a few whilst I was away. Our family went to Plettenberg Bay and Jeffreys Bay for an 11 day winter break. We had wonderfully relaxing, quality family time and I even had the opportunity to do some rubber stamp shopping at Cariena's great shop, if you are in Jeffreys Bay it is worth popping in to visit her.
I was so keen to blog about the fabulous Soccer World Cup that South Africa are hosting before I left but unfortunately time did not allow it. The quarter finals have started and our family will be doing the "Fan walk" on Saturday so I will do a blog post after that.
The photo above is the fabulous stash of stamping goodies and cards that my wonderful stamping friends Gail, Sandra, Corinna and Lee-Ann gave me for my birthday later this month. I am so spoilt and blessed to have such great friends!
Their cards will be featured this month.
Have a wonderful day! It is such a beautiful one in Cape Town!
Sorry this card did not photograph well. I am finding that it is not easy to take photo's in the winter sun as there always seem to be shadows on the cards and in Cape Town we don't always have sunny days in winter.
A beautiful birthday card received from Ria Du Toit.
This cheerful card is from Sandra Kingswell. I very seldom use yellow and yet it is such a "happy" colour, I must make an effort to make more yellow cards.
One of my favourite themes is butterflies and I have been thinking lately that it is a long time since I last made a butterfly card, I really must make a few again.
Happy Monday, hope you have a wonderful week!
Black and white is always so classically elegant. Thank you Moz for this stunning birthday card!
Sharon made this stunning card for my birthday. She is a very talented lady so hop on over to have a look at her gorgeous work on her blog. You will find her under South African stampers.
I am feeling a bit sad that our Soccer World Cup 2010 is over as South Africa has been an amazing host country, I am a very proud South African! Congratulations to Spain!!!
Today's beautiful birthday card was made by the very talented Chris Marshall. He is the only male member of our stamping group.
Sharing another birthday card with you today. Aren't I so lucky to receive such beautiful cards? Lee-Ann made this lovely one.
