For Tim and Cherida.....

I made these cute cards today for my brother Tim and his wife Cherida who live in America. They have just been given a little 2 week baby girl called Isabella to foster, fingers crossed it will go further and they may adopt. She is lovely I am so so pleased for my little brother, giving his love to children who need it. A star.
Hope you like them. I loved doing some pink things for a change.

Been assembling a fab climbing frame/swing thing for the kids today they are very very spoilt. Poor dad has been has been helping with the mountain of flat pack what a nightmare. I will add a picture when It is up and the kids are having bundles of fun.

Penny black card challange Swirls

Hi all,
well in between everything this week I have done a card for the Penny Black challenge. It was swirls. I popped a piece of paper through the dusty cuttlebug and stamped swirls on the background too. Then stamped the little penny black dog and added the sentiment. It was good fun doing a challenge after so long so I may do a few more this week.

My sock buddies

Hi all, I have been so busy lately my little feet have not touched the floor. The show at the weekend in Lincoln was great. I was supposed to be having a day out but ended up helping Ali and Iain on the stand. It was great fun though as I got to see so many people. I took my new little creations out with me and they got a great reaction. They are my sock buddies, so I have made 10 more to be taken to Edinburgh this weekend!! They are crossing the boarder.
I will set a new challenge in the next few days I have not been lazy just busy and the lovely school hollies are great! We took the kids to Skeggy today I did not know what to expect but it was great seeing the kids light up on the beach and have loads of fun. The weather helped loads how nice and it is going to just get better over the next few days!!!!!

Busy busy busy........

My hubby (Stu)

Me in sunny London

Well I am still here! I have been very busy this week I have a new project in the pipe line. I will blog them soon enough! I have done a couple of Tilda cards I will blog those tomorrow, been very naughty, just not enough hours in the day especially when I have been gallivanting!!
I have just come back from London, my very first time. I went for an early birthday prezzie and it was fab. Me and the hubby saw the fab Phantom Of The Opera and it was spine chilling. So romantic so I am on cloud nine, just as I can't walk anymore, my legs and feet are so so sore, but it was all worth it. I have added some pics.
Looking forward to the Lincoln show on Sunday should be great.

Magnolia challange 'one for the girls'

Well got some new Magnolia stamps and just loooovvvveeee them! I have done the 'one for the girls' challenge this week for Just Magnolia weekly challenge. I got a little carried away and did two cards. I am just loving the distress pads I have used them here to colour the images in with. I love the way you can water them down and get the shade and light right, just makes them look more realistic.
