Most people dont realise that my real name isnt Siân. Its actually Lorinda! I was named Lorinda after my Aunty - my dads sister. But, mum preferred the name Sian. She decided that "Sian Lorinda Young" didnt sound right - and then my initials would be SLY... another thing she didnt like (I think its kinda cool!!)
So my whole life I have been called Sian. On official documents and school rolls and for my bosses etc I have to write Lorinda - which often causes alot of confusion!! Sometimes I forget which name I have given to the video shop, the doctors surgery etc - and then I seem kinda suss cos I dont even know my own name! HEHEHE
My card this week was inspired my Lee Woodside's design last week - with tape. I used ribbon to line the front of my card and the back has the journalling on blue paper. I painted around with my favourite new paint!! (But it looks like Ive used cheap nailpolish hahaha!!). I LOVE the Heidi Swapp chipboard on the front - the brown didnt go so well with the blue and pink so I lightly painted over it with the pink paint!! Hope you like it!
My collection is starting to get very big!! Im going to have to find new storage as its getting a little bulky!! LOVE IT!!
Until next week!!! Leave me some love!! xx

Beautiful card. The colors are so vibrant!
I like the way you've arranged your ribbons. THey are so fun and cheery. I also love that "cheap fingernail paint". :) Looks great!
Your card looks great. My middle daughter goes by her middle name...and it's a p.i.t.a. when we have dr' appt's, or for school stuff.
I've yet to do my week 11 card. I'll work on that tonight.
KILLER card! I LOVE the way you used the ribbon on it! VERY COOL!
