That bauble stamp

Over on the docrafts forum this stamp is the hot news. No one can get hold of it since it has been discontinued. Anyway my friend had kindly sent me hers because she wasn't all that keen on it. How kins was that eh? Well it came this morning and to say I was excited was an understatement lol I got straight to work and this is what I have produced
This first one is for my nieces to give to her hubbies auntie and uncle. Her words " they are posh" So I hope it is posh enough for um lol

Heres the detail. I stamped the image again and decoupaged the baubles then added gems and glamour dust for interest

This one is for hubbies auntie to give to her daughter and sil
And this one is the same technique just on a square card

Hope you like then. I can deffo feel some more cards coming on using this stamp .... so you might become a bit bored of seeing them lol

Hope you all have a lovely weekend

R.I.P Buster

I am VERY sad today :(
My poor Buster was knocked over last night and sadly his injuries were to severe and we had to make the heartbreaking decision to have him put to sleep.
We are very angry that whatever scumbag ran him over did not have the decency to stop!!Pig.
But thankful that a lovely lady passing by saw him struggling to get back the path and stopped to help.

To say we are devastated is an understatement. I have not stopped crying yet and hubby is just as bad. I will miss him so much. Our only comfort is that we know that he has had a good life with us, to be honest he has been spoiled rotten! He was generally lopping most of the time either upside down on the sofa or snuggled up next to one of us having a good old fuss. I will miss those fusses the most!!
We love you Buster our beautiful boy and you will never be forgotten

Seven cards in....

...4 Hrs.
Well, we did come home last night :( Couldn't stand anymore sick and you know ewwww plus I didn't want to risk catching the dreaded lurgy with my stomach being the way it is anyway.
So I am really trying to make the most of this free time. I set myself a challenge to see how many xmas cards I could make today. And here are the results so far, well 5 of them cos Thats how many photos this site will let me upload in one post lol. Will show you the others tomorrow. I still have 4 more image coloured in so will try and make those into something this evening.
I have keep the colours the same for all of them to try and make them quicker to do. Seems to have worked so far.
Hope you like them

Naughty or Nice?

Heres a couple of easel style cards I made last week.

The image on this one is from a download by pccrafter called santas little helpers. Printed in outline image and coloured with prismas. Paper is from and old dcwv stack

The papers on this one are free download from the lovely summer
I coloured the sugar nellie image with prismas and added a few gems and glamour dust to finish

I am away at the mo staying with friends but there 2 girls are very poorly with some sort of stomach Bug.
Was planning to stay until wednesday but I think we will be driving home tonight now :( very dissapointed because I love spending time with them but I suppose it will atleast give me some time for some more xmas card making. So you never now I might even have something else to show you this week. Miracle or what ? lol
Hope you are having a good start to this very cold week brrr

It was my nans 90th yesterday. We had a huge family meal at a local hotel. But because the kids were missing out on halloween I thought I would make them a treat.
I made 12 of these!! Blimey it was hard work cutting out all the templates but well worth it, as the kids loved them!
I got the free template from this fabulous blog
http://bettys-creations.blogspot.com/
I doubled the size of the template and printed them onto printed backing papers onto card from http://summertimedesigns.blogspot.com/
The images are all free too and coloured with prismacolour pencils
I cut out the bats myself and added pearl eyes and glitter veins
Sentiment computer generated and cut out using nesties. Little plastic critters from asda. I filled them with sweets and little halloween toys.



We had a fabulous time and It was great to get all the family together.
My Gorgeous Nan

And the fab cake my niece made for her


Hope you are all having a fab weekend and enjoy the rest for your sunday whatever you are doing.

A break

Hi everyone.. can't believe it has been so long since I posted. Where does the time go eh?

Life has somewhat taken over at the moment and I am feeling incredibly blue! So I have decided to give this blog a bit of a break for a little while. I have no time and my Mojo seems to have gone walk about too.

Thanks again for all your lovely comments on my cards. Ever one of them is very much appreciated.

Hope fully be back soon
