Becoming a Teenager....Happy Birthday!





Hi everyone. What can I say my laptop had to be repaired
again! Not that long ago it had to be restored to
factory settings and this time it was my external hard drive
software causing the problem. Luckily it got fixed!
If there is anyone with a crystal ball let me know
I would love to know all my laptop disasters in advance.


I've also noticed that I have some new followers 
and would like to thank everyone who follows me
and leaves a lovely comment.









I used Polka Doodles "Sugar Birdies" cd-rom for the backing paper,
gingham paper and images of 2 owls. The image of the boy 
comes from "Pretty Tuff"cd-rom by PD again". The image of the little 
monster with balloon was a free download from "Bugaboo Stamps" 
and I used promarkers to colour it. The whole scene with the clouds
 I created in my graphics program. As usual I needed more embellies 
so I decided to create the stars in my graphics program too and
 decorate it with stitching which goes well with the stitching 
in the backing paper.  I do not have a luxury of a working 
sewing machine any more but I like the way the stitches
 turned out just with being printed. 
I also used embossing powder for the stars to make 
them look shiny but I do not think camera picked it up. 








I also used silver mirri card, outline stickers and Anita's Glitterations 
stickers which you can see all over my card. The letters LX where
white stickers and I used promarkers to recolour it. 
From my stash - metal corner, ribbons, black gemstone, foam pads
pinflair glue gel and metal buttons
