On your special day....

Hello me lovelies

Last night i had the fright of my life...no i mean it, i did...if anyone visited my blog last night will know what i mean by this...
Last night i was happily commenting away trying to catch up, then i thought i will just check my emails & i noticed i had emails saying my comments was declined or something like that, anyhoo i went back to my blog to go to dashboard & a message came up to say it had been removed....been removed....what do they mean, it's been removed so you could imagine my face & how i felt...well my heart stopped (felt like it anyway) OMG i was in such a tiss with myself because of this :o(
I sat here & thought omg what am i gonna do...WHAT AM I GOING TO DO Aaaarrrggghhhh!!!
(sorry i didn't mean to burst your ear drums)
I emailed a friend of mine to ask for some advice & then went onto Docrafts and asked peeps on there for their advice because i needed it asap...a lovely lady called Sharon made a few suggestions & said if that didn't work, contact blogger or google or who ever, anyhoo i already had done what Sharon had suggested but i don't remember seeing any contact link so i did it all again & what did i see.....yes the contact link....i must have been that much in a tiss with myself i didnt see this the first time....after following a few steps etc etc i got my blog back....yippeee!!!
Cheers Sharon :D

Well i am all calmed down after last nights fiasco...*finger crossed* it never happens again!

Righto i best stop waffling & get on with telling you all about my card...i decided i wanted to make a wedding card, just in case i need one or anyone else for that matter.
I used a Ladybug Crafts Ink stamp called 'Bride Nikki'...it's such a stunning stamp and just perfect for an elegant wedding card (i hope i achieved this) & because i already have cute & adorable wedding cards made, i needed to make some different style wedding cards..this card didn't take me long to make so i will a batch of them in various different colours which are suitable for wedding cards, anyhoo i wont waffle any longer because your probably sick of me by now lol.... 
so without further ado, here's my card & hope you like it....
