MY TOP 5 and A Happy New Year!

I've never done this before so I thought I'd join in with the Top 5 cards of the year 2011
as shown on Debby's blog here

First card has to be Tilda because as you all know I'm addicted to colouring these little beauties!

This one got me in the top 5 at TOMIC so made me feel very proud, she's also the very first Tilda I bought...bet you already knew that :o)

2nd card I'm afraid is another Tilda, I just loved the way this one turned out

This was the first card I made for the Joanna Sheen blog and it bought in a few Christmas orders, I loved the vintage Santa and the red cardinal bird. 

Choosing a Sugar Nellie was extremely difficult I love them all.

but there was something about this one...probably the colours

Last but by no means least is this Whiff of Joy 'Coffee to go'

I love this stamp and the way the card turned out.

Well that's my Top 5 for 2011, I hope you like them.

Wishing you a Healthy & Happy 

Lots of Luv & hugs

Whiff of Joy

Hello everyone, I just thought I'd upload this card, I used this gorgeous WOJ stamp for my daughters birthday card and the Tim Holtz papers, I loved the whole effect, hope she does too.

No doubt she'll see this on her birthday so Happy Birthday Sabrina, love & miss you sweetheart. xx

NEW JOB.... NEW CARD

Hiya folks, well I am in a happy mood today, firstly I got the job I was interviewed for on Wednesday, yippy! and I actually like the way my cards turned out today, maybe its because I'm in a happy state of mind.
This is Helping Angel by Whiff of Joy, I think its my all time fav of woj stamps, the papers are Tim Holtz, really love them they are great to work with, I had run out of pink ribbon so I just used this left over small piece.
Hope you like it and hope you've had a good day too. Love Teresa xx
