Here is my entry for the Whiff of Joy challenge which is a sketch from Katharina. She is looking for a GD. These are my fav stamps at the moment. It was nice to get back into some crafting after the busy weekend I had. I love this image it was sent to me in a swap I don't know who from though but I have to have her I am waiting for my friend to order her for me as I don't do internet shopping. Papers I think are papermania.

Birthday suprise!

I was very suprised when the postman came on Saturday. I recieved these wonderful gifts from Tara. Thank you so much for this it really means a lot. i love them all and can't wait to get crafting. The card is a real stunner and very me and also very appropriate as I bought some killer heels to go out friday night. And believe me they were killing me by the end of the night! Lol

Thank you Denise for this lovely card which also arrived on saturday I am always making for everyone else and it was lovely to get some handmade cards myself. I had a great day although I had a hangover from friday night had a fab time with good friends and family.

Wedding card!

Here is a wedding card that I was asked to make for a friend as her daughter is getting married on Saturday. The same day as my big 4 0. She wanted quite a large card so this is A4 size.The hearts were cut on my friends cricut mashine. Love those funky hearts.

I am not that comfortable with making big cards I always think they look to bare.

Whiff of joy & Friday sketchers Challenge!

Not a very good pic I am afraid I had to scan this one as no batteries in camera. Anyway a combo of challenges for this one. The whiff of joy challenge is to use 3 papers, 2 flowers and 1 brad or button and I used the fab sketch for this weeks Friday sketchers! Image is willow from whiff of joy the papers are papermania Flowers and ribbon from stash.

The challenge for this week is to use something metal on your card. The Pink ribbon slider is actually metal. Papers are papermania scrumptious. Images are from Gina.Flowers and ribbon from my stash.

Second leaf.

There is a sketch this week and I couldn't resist it. Image was kindly sent to me by Gina so I don't know what its called but it's so cute! Well the school is shut again tomarrow so I guess the kids will be hogging the computer again. Maybe I will get some crafting done.

2 in 1! Papertake weekly & Colour Create

Challenge #1 for Colour create was to use Green, Brown & Pink with the addition of a butterfly if you want. And the Challenge over on Papertake weeky is Hearts and Flowers. So this fits both challenges. I don't normally combine challenges and this was quite by accident.

Image Wallet!

Sent this wallet to Carly-ann in a recent swap. Image is Penpal from funky kits. Coloured with my Copic markers.
