Well we have had a new arrival in the family, my husbands cousin and his wife have just had a new baby. His name is Arran and he weighed in at 13lbs 13ozs. We haven't been to see him just yet, WOW he was a big boy!!! He actually arrived on Boxing Day as he was a few weeks early because he wasn't due until 10 January but we only found out last week as I didn't receive the original text message.
So as I am doing this '52 things challenge' on the Craft Pimp forum, my goal is to make all sorts of arty crafty things each week for this year.
This is my week 3 offering its a card I made for them
Xxx Congratulations xxX
Steve and Caroline
on the new arrival of your little bundle of joy! xxx
Hope to get some photos of little Arran when we go to visit.

Well I did make this in week 2 (just) but I've been holding off posting as my friend Diane (whose card it is) hasn't actually received it yet. She wasn't in today for the postman so she will have to go collect it tomorrow. Should be safe this time of night to show it, I hope!
So she has reached this age herself now, making her 2 years younger than me as our birthdays are exactly one week apart. (Yes mine is next week!) 80//
I think it has come out ok, I did run out of room for the Happy Birthday so had to squeeze in, just, TODAY under the 50 which does bug me a little! Nothing I can do about it now!
I never know quite what I am going to end up with when I make cards but the recipients seem to like them! I only make cards for special occasions I don't tend to make them for general birthdays, anniversaries, etc. usually but depends on how the mood takes me!
Right now need to work on this weeks make, already got something planned just need to get going. I will have caught up with the right week then -- how long it will last only time will tell!!! Ha Ha!
Till next time
