Celebrating 10 years!

Hi bloggies!

Recently the girls at my hair salon celebrated 10 years of business with a lovely afternoon party. The salon is owned by two sisters — both hair dressers — and a friend who owns the beauty side of the business. The sister’s mum (also a hair dresser) works in the salon too. I started going to this salon just a few months after they opened … and have been going ever since. Every 6 weeks for nearly 10 years … and also to have my nails done from time to time.I have worked out that is about 140 visits over the last 10 years! All 3 of my girls have had their bridal hair and makeup done there, too! I have been a great ambassador for the salon bringing along — my whole family (hubby, 2 sons, 3 daughters, 3 son-in-laws) — my sis & her 2 daughters — a friend & 2 daughters — an elderly couple from church — another couple of my daughter’s friends etc etc. So … it was nice to pop along to the salon and share in the celebrations.

This is the card I made for the girls to go with a little congratulations gift that I gave them. So … You may have noticed there is NO stamping on this card! All the impact is from some fabulous die cuts and some gorgeous papers/card. I have used some silver foil sheet, red shimmer card and some pretty fancy foil vellum. The dies I have used are Elizabeth Craft Designs “Balloons” and Paper Smooches “Birthday Words”. I was pretty happy with this one!

Hope you are enjoying my recent posts! It has been fun being back more regularly. Hope you are all having a great day! Hugs xx
