On your bike!

Hello lovely people,

Did you miss me?!
I'm back from a wonderful week away in Yorkshire; I think the weather was not as good as at home but we had lots of fun including a LOT of walking and LOTS of cream teas :-)

I also got to meet my very lovely blogging buddy Christine (and her other half!) for the first time and we had a good old chat over lunch at Betty's at Harlow Carr gardens.

I didn't manage to get anything scheduled to post before I went away so thought I would share one now from a few weeks back.

As well as making my own card for my parents' 40th wedding anniversary, my Dad asked me to make one for him to give my Mum.

They enjoy lots of sporty and outdoor activities together so I used just one of those to inspire my design, which was cycling.

The bicycle stamp set comes with the basket separate and also some butterflies or hearts that you can stamp above the basket but in the end I added some die cut hearts cut from matching DP for a more co-ordinated look.

Card recipe;

DP: Yours truly - Pebbles

Twine: Natural button twine - The Ribbon Girl - currently unavailable

Tag: Sentiment tags - LOTV
Dies - mini heart collection - Memory box

I haven't been able to keep up with my blog visits while I've been away but I'm looking forward to coming round to see you all soon :-)

Thanks for visiting and I really appreciate any comments that you leave,
