Special Memorial Keepsake

Hello all well I have some very special keepsake memorial cards to share with you all.

I was recently asked by an old school friend/repeat customer to make her 4 memorial bookatrix keepsake cards for herself and 3 family members which were cousin,brother,son and nephew. I have already made such a thing for her in the past a memorial keepsake of her mum, so when she asked me to do her 4 in memory of her cousin I was highly honoured to do them for her.

Everything she asked me to do I have done, from the colours of the keepsakes the pictures she chose which I edited with her cousin's name date of birth and the date of his passing, the finishing touches (skull and crossbones) the skull and crossbones is a Digi stamp designed by Teri at Delicious Doodles  including the verses, I did the verses and then sent them to her for her approval to which she was over the moon with I also did an added extra for her which was to put her cousins name down the centre of the ribbon.

 I also agreed to send her pictures via a message once they were complete and her response was second to known, this is what she had to say about them "Kelly they are amazing and absolutely amazing, thank you again you are an absolute star." she also said "They are absolutely perfect sweet, Love em :) got a lump in my throat."

So here they are 





I was over the moon with her response as we did have a few problems along the way of getting them done and when they were the first time, she admitted to a mistake she had made of the day of his passing, so I re-edited the pictures, re-printed them and then replaced them on the keepsakes.

The end product I could not have been more happy with even though we did have a few problems which were soon sorted, she has even said she will recommend me to her family and make sure they know who has made them and is passing on my details. The one thing I have been asked is to not put them on Facebook as of yet, as 3 of them are a surprise for her family members once they have seen them they will then be added to my customer order album on Facebook, so others can see what I have done.

Even though it was such a sad occasion to be doing a keepsake for I still enjoyed doing it as it was made easy for me as the customer knew exactly what she wanted and that is what she got plus a bit more, as a lot of love care and thought went into each and everyone of them.

Crazy Crafting Times

Hello all, 
well it's lovely and sunny here today which makes a change hehe, I have been working on some new Bookatrix Keepsakes along with 2 new styles of keepsakes which I have not done before and I must say I am quite proud of how they have turned out YAY!!!.

I have also been working on some other card's but mainly the Bookatrix Keepsakes, I haven't been able to do as much as I would have liked due to my health still not being 100% horrible chest infection, fibro flare ups, migraines, feeling down you name it it's happening :(. 

I have even struggled to get my head together to do some challenge makes for Delicious Doodles :( *cries*, So I just want to say a BIG Sorry to you all but mainly to Teri for not being able to get any done, lack of sleep and lack of mojo do not help, But I will be back in full swing for the next challenge for Team B.

So on a little more of a positive note here is what I have been able to do

Very Special Keepsake

Hello all, Well I have been busy with some new designs but today is a very special day even though very heartbreaking for two of my closest friends who are like family to me and my other half, 14 years ago today their son Jordan Alexander was born sleeping so today is his 14th Angelversary. I wanted to do something special for Laura and Gordon, so I made them a keepsake card in memory of Jordan along with a memorial plaque which Laura did ask me if I could do for her but I went a step further and framed it which I also decorated. 

So here is the Keepsake memorial card for Jordan Alexander
Rest In Peace Baby Boy


As you can see I have used a Digi on the left side and coloured this in using my promarkers the digi is from Squiggle Fly and the poem was written by me :) - Here is a close up of the poem and image 



Both Laura and Gordon were overwhelmed with this card which I knew would happen but it's something I wanted to do for the both of them and of cause for Jordan, They were not expecting this card at all only the memorial plaque and here is it


Laura told me what colours she would like and the text in which she wanted on the die cut that I have used so I took all this into consideration and this is the finished project, complete with a frame which has been decorated with some lovely baby ribbon.

So there we have it two very special keepsakes for a very special Angel Baby 
God Bless Jordan xx
