Birthday boy...

A quick little Stampavie card for the Anything Goes challenge over at Papertake Weekly...

Thanks for lookin'!

Happy...

There's a whole bucketful of happiness over this way today - although I have to admit all I need is a little sunshine for that to happen!

Two cards I should've shared at the start of the week, but didn't. We went on an impromptu little holiday instead - more happy for the bucket!

These were the last couple for my Guest spot over at ATS, which has now been extended to a permanent spot - yup, even more happy ;)

Thanks for visitin' - I'll catch y'all soonest,

A little card with two of the week's challenges in mind - A Spoon Full of Sugar & Crafty Catz both have an animal theme this week...

Yet another to-the-point oh-so-brief post I'm afraid - the sun's out and I plan to enjoy it!

Happy Saturday :)

Happy Birthday Papertake!

So one of my favouritest challenge blogs is celebrating its' 3rd birthday - how could I not join in?!

{Hmmmm, if Papertake is 3, I guess this li'l blog must be too - eeeeek!}

I had such a hard time picking out just one favourite challenge from over there - so I picked a year {2008} and went with my faves from that year :)

Hello Baby...

Hey all, just a quick post today to show you a card I made for the new Craftalicious challenge
- I couldn't resist making a new baby card!

I've long admired Eline Pellinkhof's work - just adorable! You can find lots of her gorgeous baby images over at Squigglefly

I couldn't resist adding a mini Giraffe to the inside of the card too :D

Have a great Saturday!
Hugs,

She sleeps with the fishes**...

A quick li'l post today to share this card I stuck together for the Anyone for Anya challenge - I know, cutting it kinda fine, there's a new challenge on the way tomorrow!

I used the very sweet Mermaid Anya and bits from the CC Designs Underwater Adventure set - cute together, huh?

Apologies for the shockingly poor photo quality - camera must be broke or somethin' - couldn't possibly be due to my lack of photography skills...

Giveaway's been given away - thanks for joining in!

Shall we have a li'l giveaway? I haven't done one for a while and I have a lovely new Mermaid Anya stamp ready to post out to new home - if you'd like her, let me know. I'll be back on Monday to let you know where she's off to :D

Catch you laters,

**A little harsh for a post title I know, but I'm sure you can see why it sprang to mind!

Ribbon-tastic...

Mornin' all, hope today's starting off a good 'un for ya :D
It's Thursday!!! So that means we have a brand new challenge over at CCT

We've gone Ribbontastic over there this week and I figured that rather than go all girly, I'd go for a boys card with ribbon, somethin' different ya know?
No really, I did - it's not because my "flowers are weird" thing has now become a "flowers and ribbon are weird" thing...
not at all...

Not convinced? Luckily the rest of the DT aren't as freaky as me and have made some truly gorgeous ribbony samples for you all - go take a peek!

Hugs,

So you have the biggest, baddest flower phobia in blog-land...

...doesn't it just make perfect sense to dig out the biggest, baddest flower you can find and stick it to a card?
No...I didn't think so either...

Ouch - check out that dodgy stitchin'...actually no, please don't... ;D

This gorgeous li'l Pixie-Girlie can be found over at Dies to Die For here, along with a seriously big n' bad selection of flowers here
*snort* I meant that in the nicest possible way Tracy - honest!

Happy Monday,

Happy Mondays...

Only a quick 'un today...I spotted this poor li'l stamp looking far too clean and neglected...so promptly set about inkin' him up!
The newest Crafty Angels challenge is "Buttons" - I originally had a whole pile of buttons lined up ready to stick on this card, but then decided this one was enough!
Thanks to the Crafty Angels for the fantastic buttony inspiration :)

I'm pretty sure I got him as part of the Winter Stamp Kit from All That Scraps (noooo, very few of the others have been inked either!), but you can get get him from the ever fabby Tracy here (well, you were heading over there anyways for a looksie at the new Greeting Farm stamps, right?!).

A big thank you as always for the super-fab comments you've been leaving...and for actually coming along to say hi, of course!

Hugs,
