Nellie


Hiya, purple is one of my fave colours andOCC wanted us to use it on our card, Ive used HOTP papers and coloured my image with purple copics, the wonderfull sketch is fom MM dont do many oblong cards these days seem to be all square, and MTTC wanted neglected or forgotten stash, I brought this set of stamps months ago and theyve never seen an ink pad.
Back later.

orangetree

Hiya well Ive finally caught up with my cards, this one has turned out better than i thought it would, the sketch is by Jeanette over at Friday sketchers, it never fails to amaze me how small the world becomes when you are on the internet, here i am doing a sketch by Jeanette in Canada!!! it was a lovely sketch thank you. Colour create wanted pink, orange and green i was going to go for citrus shades but then opted for a mmore pastel shade, which I'm pleased with. Cute card thrs wanted fruity these stamps from WOJ are certainly fruity and i also added a cherry charm, i used my copics to colour MME and K&Co papers with pink bazill some green pearls pink flowers from my sister and prima larger flower EK flower and border punches. those border punches are amazing they go through quite thick card like butter. i love them.
Having a great holiday now my internets back.

I love these papers from K&Co they are just a bit greyer than the photo but gorgeous. I got this stamp from the NEC one year I think they were from the Card Fairy. My son goes fishing with his Dad when he visits so this card fitted the bill, he's more into Golf actually but realised I'd used my golf stamp last year, me thinks its time for a shopping trip, does anyone know if the show at Newark has its new dates yet, thats quite close to me so ideal. I used the sketch over at I (heart) to stamp, loved it so I'll certainly use it again.
Back later

snow


Hi, well my internet crashed on Sat night and I've been on the BT helpline since then, I phoned a computer shop in Skeg, he is brill , and was all set to take my laptop in this morning. Thought I'd give it one last try and wholla it worked, I don't think I will ever understand computers.lol. So this is the card I finished on Sunday, the wonderfull Jill over on Sat Challenge gave us a lovely sketch, my snow couple fitted it well, it is a fairly large stamp from Sugar nellie so not many sketchers lend themselves to it. I coloured with my copics, matted with my nesties, added a few jellytots and stickles and its done thats four xmas cards I've got done this year, 4 more than last and a long way from what I need. lol. Think I might have to do a few more xmas challenges.
See you soon when I've taken a couple of photos of my other cards.

butterfly

Hiya, back again this is my second card today and its for two challenges Stamp something, as it has butterflies and little dickie birds on and the sketch is from Friday sketchers, I thought this card was quite summery (is that a proper word?) with the flowered DP and her summery clothes. Quite ironic since weve had thunder storms and hail stones today, we had some deliveries to do at work and it was trying to time them in between showers. Got a bit of a countdown starting today just one week and I'm on holiday, Yahooo, well ready for a break , been a right shitty year so far so need to recharge the old batteries,
Right going to have my last cup of tea and get ready for bed now , see you on Sunday hopefully.

It also has three eyelets which fit in with the cute card thursday challenge , be back later if I'm still awake.

Rock


Evening, this must be some sort of record, 3 cards in 3 nights, I havn't managed that in a couple of months, and its amazing how chilled out I feel, wish I could bottle it for later. lol. Its my nephews birthday on Friday so I thought I'd make him a guitar card as he plays Rock Band on his X box, MTTC asked for music to my ears, and the sketch was designed by Barb over at SS&S the papers are 7gypsies, inkadinkado stamps, embossed in black sparkle, ribbon from stash and gems from Delish. Hope to be back at the weekend.

Blues


Hi all, what do you do in a heatwave? make a christmas card. lol.
I've used three blues men snowmen from Stamptivity, I love their stamps, and masked them to look like a cool gang, CI wanted masking, the sketch is from Truly Scrumptious and I loved it ,
The Christmas theme is from Stamp Something, its quite a good idea to get a few xmas cards done now so it wont be such a rush in Dec, I'm going to try and make one a week, thats a laugh I'm only managing one card a week as it is . I'm going to love you and leave you I've sold some things on ebay and I need to wrap them up for posting tomorrow. Hope to be on a bit more this week, my Mother in law has been in hospital but hopefully she will be coming out early next week so that will make things a bit easier.

Beachy


Hello, long time no blog again, its been a funny old week . Got my mother in law in hospital which is about 30 miles away so running around a bit plus my brother that lives in Belgium came to visit and its Mums birthday, ohh almost forgot my son and daughter in law are here for the weekend, they live in Leeds. But I managed a card bit here bit there, its for Our Creative Corner a gorgeous sketch, and I used my new K & Co papers from the hobby house, the stamp is an old favorite Ive had for ages, used my copics (still trying to get to grips with them) to colour them. Hope its not to long before I'm back again.
