ROYAL NEWS!

Hey there folks!

How are you today? well here in the U.K we have Royal Baby fever, I and hubby have been glued to the News for the past couple of days since Kate went into labour and then waiting for the new Prince to come home with his mummy (Kate) and daddy (Will's) we are very laid back here but if you aren't familiar with their names, they are HRH's Prince (Duke of Cambridge) William and Duchess Kate of Cambridge, our future King and his beautiful wife, they have just given this country the future (3rd in line) king of England. Its been so exciting here and we are now letting them settle in with their new baby but we are still awaiting the naming of the Prince, I like William after his father, or Michael as first names! And hubby likes the idea of George, anyway, that is what I have been doing, being very patriotic, love it all!!!
Hugs for now, from Vick and the hubster xxx

INDIGO BLU STAMPS

Hi Folks,

Here is a card made from the brilliant Indigo Blu Stamps CLICK HERE where you will find outstanding value&quality red rubber stamps and top quality products that are such fun to play with! I had the stamp set 'Live Laugh Love' to play with, and play I did.  I made the card below into an 8x8 card and used one of the beautiful sentiments from the set and 3 different flowers from the same set, it's such a great all rounder, with images for men too! And the sentiments are in beautiful fonts that are so pleasing to the eye! Hope you like what I have created, if you have any questions please feel free to ask in the comments and I will answer as soon as!!
Hugs, V x
