Wheelie

Hi there, well what a dismal day it is here, although I have a bit of sunshine , my son and DIL have come down for the weekend, they always brighten things up. Not got much planned just going to have a chill out.

I made this the other day but havn't had time to post it, I won the image over a year ago now, I think its a CC stamp, but not 100% sure. I coloured it with copics and Glamour dusted the wings and heart. Used Papermania and Bazill papers, EK punches,Brad,Slider and Ribbon from stash.

Hope you have a good weekend.

I know its early, but I need to get a few of these made before April, so I thought if I made at least 1 a week it won't be one mad rush, well thats the theory anyway, didn't work at Christmas but theres always a first time.

I used a WOJ stamp coloured with copics, Martha Stewart Heart border punch, Memory Box Jubilee papers, Scrapbook House rub ons and some baby's breath flowers my sister gave me. Oops nearly forgot the paper doily from the Hobby House.

Hiya, hope you've had a great weekend, I finally gave in and attacked the ironing pile.lol. its not all done but I can almost see the bottom. Does any one else hate ironing? its not the actual ironing its the fact that it makes me think too much! and then I get down, Oh well once a month I can manage. Any way to cheer myself up this afternoon I coloured The Elf Messenger from The Paper Shelter using my copics, K&Co paper, EK flourish punch, and baby buttons.

Hi there, I've managed another calendar today, if I dont get a move on January will soon be gone if it goes as quick as last year.
My last day off work today, been shopping this morning looking for a swimsuit, I'm on a keep fit drive, years ago I had one with a skirt attatched and I fancied one like that, maybe sleeves to cover my arm wings, oh and legs to cover the cellulite, oh and maybe a girdle to pull my bum and tum in a bit (lot), I think I might be looking for a long while. Dave says I need one of those Victorian ones, hes not far wrong actually.
