I have another Pixie/MME card to share today... ...but I'm not gonna apologise for it - I got a lotta love for that particular combo ;) This little Pixie is from the brand spanking new April release and she's possibly my favourite ever.Until the May release anyways... Catch ya laters! CC Designs stamps and MME paper pads can both be found at Dies to Die For along with the brand new Spellbinders

A quick little Stampavie card for Papertake's Anything Goes challenge... Gotta dash - there's a rather delish smell of vanilla shortbread coming from the oven and nothing'll keep me from shortbread... ;)

Blimey - Saturday already?I wasn't sure what to share this week for MSMS, but then I woke up to sunshine and thought this happy li'l song would be perfect... See y'all next week!

The best day ever...

Another little card for my stint as GDT over at ATS - sigh...I LOVE pixies! This rather bright cutie was made with the current Crafty Creations challenge "In Stitches" in mind - although I don't remember the last time I didn't stitch on a card, all that money not spent on glue gets spent on pretty, pretty papers instead! And because I missed MSMS on Saturday {it was li'l Horror's birthday :D}

Hello baby...

2011-03-22T22:27:00.001Z

A quick little card to share - made for the Totally Gorjuss Button It challenge... It feels like a loooooong time since I got inky with a Stampavie stamp - thought it was about time I fixed that! Thanks, as always, for visitin' :)

Another little card made for my ATS GDT spot, which also fits in perfectly with the current Anyone for Anya Birthday challenge... Thanks for visitin'!

It's {still} all about me...again...

2011-03-21T12:28:00.000Z

...sigh......egostistical me still isn't over typing that... ;) Yep, it's Monday so I get to share another card made for my GDT spot over at ATS.I'm loving the 12 Zodiac Girls designed by Amy Young - no need to be ever be stuck on which stamp to use for someone's birthday right?!This li'l beauty is Saggitarius. I used one of the fab new Amy R Sentiment releases to decorate the inside too... The

Have a nice day...

Jeeesh, I'm a poor blogger at the mo - no reason really, other than the sun's been shining a lot and I'm inclined to make the most of that :) Had to pop in for MSMS though and seeing as how I'm sat watching Wales lose rather fantastically right now a little bit of 'phonics seemed appropriate... Enjoy!

It's {still} all about me...

2011-03-14T19:04:00.000Z

Time for another egotistical Me,Me,Me post :) A couple more cards I made for my Guest spot over at All That Scraps Pixies and cake - sigh... And probably my favouritest stamp of this months release... Is this li'l monkey - too cute! Enjoy your day lovelies :) Oh and all of you who seem to think I'll be sharing Eric - I won't. I may throw him your way once I've finished with him though... ;)

I don't know who you think you are...

I love Saturdays.No work.No school.A little football.Mrs. Watkins' Music Saves my Soul... Not sure why this song popped into my head for this week... ... but it could justa been so I could post this picture... Don't worry - I wouldn't stoop so low as to actually type I wanna do bad things with you in reference to the picture. Even I'm not that predictable*... *

Happy 3!

2011-03-07T18:39:00.002Z

...and being the egotistical creature that I am, I kinda like that... ;) Obviously it's not all about me - apart from over at the ATS blog for the next few Mondays, where they're very kindly letting me be guest designer.In that instance it really is all about me :) Playing with not yet released Pixies?Actual, real heaven. There's a whole load of sentiments in the next release that are are just

Miss you a Latte...

2011-03-06T18:53:00.000Z

A quick little card for Papertake's Anything Goes challenge... The optional extra this week is to use something old - hmmmmm, it's a tough call between the sewing machine that's so old it would be classed as vintage if it were a car, or the corner rounder punch I can remember buying before the big Horror was born... :) Happy Sunday Image: MFT A la Modes "Miss you a Latte"Papers: MME Stella &

2011-03-05T12:00:00.000Z

So yeah...I've not been around much lately.Sometimes life's just like that, right? I'll be around a little next week :) So I thought I'd join in with Marcea's MSMS and this is my song this week... I heard the li'l Horror humming it a few days ago - a song from long before his time. A song before the big Horror's time even :) A song I listened to so many times I

We've discussed my guilty craft pleasures before, haven't we?Those times when I ignore the call of all the cutesy stamps sat on my desk and reach a little further for the pretty schtuff... I felt the urge for a little guilty craft pleasure indulgance today and using the sketch over at Walting Mouse {kinda...}, whipped up this li'l card... Seam binding, new MME and a happy little sentiment - I

Yesterday was a very happy mail day - not only did some gorgeous new MME pads find their way to my letterbox, this little fella did too... He's a very soon to be released new image from Sugar Nellie, and I absolutely adore him! A super-simple card, cos I'm a super-simple kinda girl ;) Have a great day!
