It's your birthday...

    Morning folks,

It'm just back from holiday to Spain with the girlies...the end of our big birthday celebrations.  The weather was glorious and back to frost....hey ho not long til the next break.

It's time for a new challenge over on the Sweet Stampin Challenge Blog.

The theme for this challenge is "spots and stripes".

Again I have used a stamp set that I bought a wee while back but not used it, so I die cut the vase, stamped, coloured and cut the flowers.  I used patterend paper for my spots and stripes then layered the little vase on top.  I added some enamel dots (spots) and sequins (spots) to finish.

Hip hip hooray...

                                                                  Morning folks,

It'm just back from holiday up north, the weather could have been better but the scenery makes up for it...back to work on Monday.

It's time for a new challenge over on the Sweet Stampin Challenge Blog.

The theme for this challenge is "a card for a child".

I bought this stamp ages ago and I don't think I've used...hmmm maybe once.  I stamped up the images and coloured with copics, I added some white dots to the flags.  I was finished colouring and ready to stamp the sentiment when I dropped the ink pad so I ended up making a little 3d puff of smoke to hide the ink...nobody will know it's there ha ha!

Happy Birthday...

 Morning folks,

It's been another busy week at work and Ive had toothache ...blah!

It's time for a new challenge over on the Sweet Stampin Challenge Blog.

The theme for this challenge is "cakes or baking".

I love this stamp from Colorado Craft Company, it does take a lot of colouring but I think it's fab, hope my colouring has done it justice!  This time I used my copics to colour, then added a few splodges and sequins.

Tag time...

 

 Morning folks,

It's been another busy week at work and the weather has been pants!  I think the summer missed us up here.

It's time for a new challenge over on the Sweet Stampin Challenge Blog.

The theme for this challenge is "tags".

I bought this tag and stamp set a few months back but really didn't know what to do with them...so here we are.  I used some scrap paper and layered it onto some heavier card and then die cut them, I die cut the zig zag and stuck that on too and added a little message.  I guess it's something a bit different and we like a challenge.

Flowers

 

Good morning stampers, it's time for a new challenge over on the Sweet Stampin Challenge blog.

The theme is flowers....any flowers you like.

My craft room is still in a guddle whilst we are making my new room but hopefully it won't be too long...

For my card I inked up this background stamp and coloured with copics...there was way more colouring than I had initially anticipated.  I also added a wee touch of glitter too.

Pop over and check out what the rest of the team have made.

At last...

 

Hey all,

I thought I would share with you my crocheted blanket that I finished a couple of weeks ago...finally got all those ends sewn in...boy did that take a while!

I am so pleased with how it turned out, this is my second blanket since I learned to crochet back in October...I am getting addicted to crocheting now, I just love it!  My next post will be a card though ha ha!

This was made using various colours of DK and the granny square pattern I found on Pinterest, it's called Circle of Friends.

            

Thanks for stopping by.
