open card

Lovely spring coloured card, wish it was sun hat weather, its more like fisherman hat weather. Wanted to keep it plainish, found the flower in my stash - added a plain daisy to the middle and some blue ribbon. Keeping it plain makes it look fresh, I used it as a birthday card, just added a Happy Birthday peel off above the ribbon.

entered into Gecko Galz facebook challenge 'hands' for March, and this was picked as the winner ;)

I found a new author (to me) whilst buying a 2for in Tesco's. Trisha Ashley - Chocolate Shoes and wedding Blues. Couldn't put it down, really enjoyed it, and Trisha has made it into my Book of Books *da-dah*
Anyhoo, included was a lovely recipe for Fat Rascal's, a Yorkshire treat and now that I've made them - very addicitive! what little remainder of my waist I had looks like its on the way out. Must Wii more.

Salvaged two small plastic files from work and have decided to put my favourite recipes in them, laminated pages to keep them clean.
So I've made a start on the collection with the aforementioned Fat Rascals.
