Older maybe...Wiser? Nah, course not!

Sooooo, I'm still the suckiest blogger ever {'puter's fault this time though, not mine!}, but to make up for it I'll share this li'l bit of October Afternoon yumminess with you... ;)



A big, huge thank you to everyone who sent birthday wishes, cards & other li'l lovelies - they're all utterly cherished & now that my 'puter's working again I'll be round to thank you all soonest.
Now because this birthday involved a big, fat 0, I thought it only right and proper that I get some blog candy going on...so come back soon...



Hugs,

Bad, bad blogger...




...heehee - not sure if I mean that in a "I'm a bad blogger" or a "stoopid actual Blogger" kinda way!
I had scheduled a whole load of posts for while I was away*, but it would appear they didn't post - ah well, I guess that means I have a few piccies to share over the next few days :)


For now though, here are my CCT card for this weeks Wheely Good Fun theme...







And my ATC for Tilda & Friends' 3D theme...





Did ya ever see a less 3D lookin' pic? I'd better show ya this one too... ;)





I'll be seein' ya tomorrow peeps - I really do have loads to share!




*Hmmmmmmm, it seems some of you took my "I'm eloping" comment a little too seriously - what I actually meant was Blokey has been {quite rightly} feeling guilty about the amount of time he's had to spend working away for the past few {many} months and very sweetly decided we would go away...Even sweeter was the fact that he had the bright idea to go to the very place we actually "eloped" to many moons ago...Bless him!

I'm not actually here ya know...

...no, I've eloped with some ol' bloke who's been hanging around a while... ;)




So here's my nice & simple card for this weeks CCT Quote challenge - not surprisingly it features some string {white though, just for a change!}, some rub-ons and sssshhhhhhh...some October Afternoon papers...




Be safe n happy :)

Not quite so ouch...

The latest Dutch-Dare challenge is to decorate the inside of your card...so I did!





I decided to make a little matchbook type card, very cute, but how much hassle is it to get everything lined up straight?! Hmmmmmm, a definite patience trier... ;)




Yes, it's even more Cosmo Cricket pp {Early Bird this time} and yes, I do sometimes sit staring at their website for hours, sighing blissfully... {ooooops, did I say that out loud?}


Cosmo Cricket "Early Bird" pp's & tag,
Pebbles inc rub-on,
Sugar Nellie stamp,
Brad & bitsa string from stash.

A big, big thank you to all who've wished me & my head well - it's nearly normal again (well, I didn't shout quite so much today...).
I was asked yesterday if it was a teeny glimpse of sea that could be seen behind some of my recent cards - it is :) I'll leave you all with the view I had from my living room a few hours ago - pretty darn gorgeous huh? ;)



Hugs,
