Beautiful Birthday cards

I had a super duper day yesterday as it was my birthday. I'm not going to reveal how old I turned (I'm in age denial), but I am happy to reveal two lovely cards that I received. I think you'll agree that they are both stunning. The first one is from my good friend (and fellow demonstrator) Judy.  She has used the stamp set Growing Green. I love the fabulous colouring and bling!

The second beautiful card was made by my lovely friend Sally.  She has used a new set from the Summer mini catalogue Easter Blossoms. Isn't it gorgeous! 

I've got the back to school panic on now and have yet to hem my daughter's school skirt and buy her stationery. I've a good reason about the skirt though, because there is a 10cm difference in where DD14 wants her hemline and where I want it... and besides that, I swear she's getting taller as we speak, so then I'll need to lower it again by the end of the week, at this rate.  Wish me luck :)
