As I was soldering some of my components, I noticed some of copper pads rising up off the pcb.
Okay so what have I done wrong?
Or even better a pcb with larger pads would be nice for us ham fisted types.
Any advice

Heating the pads up to much for too long. Turn your iron down or turn it up and work much faster.
