Fave Tilda

Good Morning my lovelies x

Think i may have mentioned on more than one occasion that this lil stamp has to be one of my favourite Tildas and everytime i go to make a Tilda card I do tend to reach for her - so here she is again! lol

Yes you do detect Kraft!!! sorry but not got over the addiction for this stuff yet I think it's here forever!!

I sat and coloured her the other night while watching TV, I am quite pleased as I wasn't in very good light - no close ups please!! hee hee

My card is also very sparkly and looks lovely in the sun!

A very Spring type card today, very soft and pastelly in fact not a good photo at all it does look very wishy washy, think I am using the wrong camera setting!

Doh! silly me x

I have used a fab Sketch over at Stamptacular Sunday, one i will be using again

definitely.

I have used lots of die cuts on here, magnolia fence die, martha stewart grass punch and nestabilitie dies, not forgetting my SU tab punch!!

The papers are very old Imaginisce unfortunately can't remember the names but they are very pretty.

There are so many great challenges at the moment but not enough hours in the day for me!!

Hi de Hi,

I found these circular cards in a drawer so thought I would have a go and make a card with them and decided on some lovely bright turquoise and pinks colours I think they look fab together!!

A really cute image by Penny Black, i'm not sure what this is called as someone had kindly stamped it for me x

I will use this as a card from one of the kids to my mum as she has a birthday coming up in February, nothing like getting organised!!

As she cherishes all of my cards I think it is safe to say she is worthy of all my new pink gems I have placed around the scallop lol x

Ooh it's really blustery and rainy and horrible here today, a good day for crafting if you get any time!

As the title suggests this card has been made for all of my blog buddies and I just love this magnolia sentiment it is so true x

I am not sure if this style card has a name but Kim Fee used it on a class at Craftsulove and all of the ladies loved it!

Fave Five of 2011!!

Happy New Years Eve to you, are you getting excited about celebrating tonight?

Where has this year gone to, it's absolutely flown by for me that's for sure!!

Here are my fave Five cards of 2011 that i am joining in with the lovely Debby

she does this every year and you really must pop by to see her as she makes the most wonderful cards!

1st up is a heavily die cut and punch card which i made for my lovely mum x

Well yes one of the many elzybells i have used with a bit of paper piecing going on and those gorgeous little clouds - so sweet!

I really like how this turned out - using Kraft again!!!

Oh and again lol!!!

this may be the first time i tried colouring on Kraft, really like this affect

And last but no means least another one which i made for my mum and one of my first attempts at distress inks!

Note to oneself to spend more time practicing with the inks lol x

Hope you liked reminiscing with me!

Hope you have a wonderful night tonight whatever you may be doing and may i wish you a Happy and Healthy New Year!!

See you in 2012!!

Bo Bunny Card and FREE POSTAGE ALERT!!!

Hullo, hullo,

Hope you all survived the Christmas Festivities and that Santa brought you everything you wanted!!

We had a lovely time but have to say I am glad it's over, I do Christmas Day and Boxing Day for the family and although I enjoy it when it's here, I absolutely hate the run up to it I get so stressed!!!

I have eaten far too much and feel very uncomfortable but tell myself well If I eat a little more I may feel better!

Where's the logic in that!!

Not sure If I should be posting Crimbo cards as it has gone, lol but here is one that I made for a Create and Take at work who have FREE POSTAGE until 3rd January so if you did fancy a bit of retail therapy or were lucky enough to receive CRAFTSULOVE vouchers for Christmas now's the chance to spend and save on postage!!

It would be rude not too!!

See you soon and a big Hullo to my new followers x

PS - I still have 2 presents to find in my "safe place" which unfortunately to the disgust of my children, I cannot for the life of me remember where it was!

I wouldn't mind but I only wrapped them on Christmas Eve!!

May have to buy a new brain in the sales!!

No funny comments please Mrs Squires!! lol

Red Sky in the morning ..........

Hullo, Hullo,

Sorry you had just piccies and no words for a couple of days!!

Silly, stupid, daft bat old me obviously pressed a wrong button and managed to turn my blog into something I knew nothing about!! Doh what a dingbat I am!!

This was until Caz came to the rescue and worked her magic within about 2 nano seconds - what a fool I felt!!

Thank you my friend x

So onto the piccie this was a photo taken from my bedroom window the other morning, unfortunately it didn't pick up well in the photo but just above the trees it was a lovely blue and looked like the sea it was amazing!!
Just a little card that took minutes to make and yes I have used an Elzybell again!!

I would like to wish all who visit a wonderful wonderful christmas and all the best for 2012!!

Just incase I don't get a chance to pop by again as I still have pressies to buy -

talk about last minute larry!!

Toodle pop!
