Thank-you Kim


Thanks to kim over at Simply fairy's for these cute little Edwin stamped images. She very kindly sent me a few of these cute little Edwin inages. So a big thank-you kim.

I have made this card for my nephew for his birthday. The papers are from dcwv as is the card which i have matted and layered the image onto. The brads are ones have been in my stash for ever and i cant remember where there from!

I have spent my evenings this week colouring some images so you may well get a few more cards this week. I have been so inspired by searching everyones blog and looking at all the wonderful creations you do!

A little bit of Sugar!!!!!!!


Sugar Nellie that is....Isnt she cute....she's called dress up maggie and i love her. So you may well see her again and again and again...( i think you get the message )

I coloured her using whispers brush makers and matted her onto black card. Used some beautiful Anna Griffin papers that i have had for ages but have never found anything to us them with! Added some black glitter mini brads and ribbon! And of course there had to be some bazzil card!

Well im sat here bored at work today so have had time to craft... but dont think i'll be doing much over the next couple of weeks because during the week we will be busy! Everyone wants to book a holiday!

1st Card of 2008!


This is my 1st card made in 2008! Hope you all like it. I love these Magnolia stamps and got a couple for myself at Christmas! ( My christmas pressie to myself )

I have coloured the image with whispers brushmarkers.... (mt pressie off my mum for christmas ) Matted and layered bazzil card and k & Co papers! I have also used my cop-a-dile for the first time today and didnt think it looked too bad. Added some fancy fibers and prima flowers and mini buttons.

Hope everyone is ok and not suffering like myself....im full of cold but still plodding on. Just hope it doesnt go into a chest infection!!!!! I need to get my house back to normality so the decorations will be coming down on Sunday and i hate it because the house looks so bare after!

Will post soon!
