Hello Gorjuss...

A quick little card using the fab sketch over at the Sugar Bowl...

I flipped the sketch around and kept it super simple - cos y'know...simple is as simple does... ;)

Thanks for visiting!

Sprinkle Stardust...

Nothing like a pretty little Gorjuss girl to cheer up a grey Monday morning is there?!

Mix it with some of my favourite MME and I'm in Heaven :)

Challenges: The Ribbon Girl's Aqua colour challenge

I {heart} Promarkers Recipe

A little bit of sticking on the inside and a pot full of markers...

...happy sighs...

Enjoy your day!

Nellie love...

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!

Little star...

 I was having yet another stamp sort-out yesterday when I stumbled upon this little treasure...

*sigh*

Pretty stamps make me happy...

I found some friends of hers that I couldn't resist inking up too - expect a few Gorjuss posts this week :)

Did you let yourself fall back in love lately?

Forgotten Stamps is the theme over at the Crafty Catz too so go rummage right to the bottom of your rubbah pile - I bet there's some treasure in there waiting to be discovered!

Hey Gorjuss...

Hey all :D
I may not be around much this week - how come life decides to get busy-busy all at the same time, huh?!

Anyways, here's a quick little bookmark I made for the Totally Gorjuss challenge - I used some leftover bits from this weeks CCT card {here if you wanna peek}

'Kay - that's it from me. Isn't it great when I don't witter on about totally uninteresting schtuff?

Hugs,

Getting sketchy...

...or maybe not in my case...
In my head this looked exactly like the fabby sketch by Andrea that we have over on CCT this week, but now I'm having trouble convincing myself! Ah well, long time visitors will know all about me and my sketch nemesis...

So that's my card...
Come join in with us over here - we luuuurve having you all play along with us and we have a fabby Alota Rubber Stamps prize up for grabs...come get sketchy with us, you're guaranteed to do a better job of it than me...

Hugs,

Oh, oh, oh - I gotta send you for a looksie over here.
I can't tell you anything about it yet, just believe me when I say it's so good, I'm actually wee-my-pants-excited about it...

A stitch (and not a whole lot else)...

Mornin' all...

I thought I'd join in with the Stamp With Fun "Stitch" challenge and came up with this:

Not an embellie to be seen peeps - I love it!!!!!
Although it does appear I took the challenge a bit too literally, I'm sure it doesn't say do nothing but stitch!
I'll catch you all tomorrow with my CCT card - for those of you who've just recoiled in horror at the above non-embellied card, you'll be pleased to hear tomorrow's has a grand total of two embellies...oh yes, I really went to town on that one...


Hugs,

Hey Gorjuss...

I needed to make a quick little card and dug out this gorgeous Gorjuss Girl to help me along...

Aaaaaw, isn't she pretty :D
I noticed the Crafty Catz challenge for this week is "Buttons and Bows" and thought I'd add a bow to my button so I could join in - unfortunately my dodgy camera skills mean it's really hard to see my bow n' button - duh!!!
'nother speedy post sorry - I've just been informed we're heading over to the footie pitch to practise "super-long, champion goal kicks" - can't think of anything I'd rather do on a freezy Sunday morning...

Catch y'all later,

Love Ya!

A little root around in a stamp drawer unearthed this gorgeous pair...I couldn't resist inking them up!
Then I saw the Freestyle challenge over at A Spoon Full of Sugar - my kinda challenge! - and thought they'd be just perfect for it :)

Papers are bit of Pink Paislee & a bit of Making Memories
Rub-on sentiment
Bitsa string & button from stash

Thanks for coming by to say hello :)
Hugs,

Another speedy 'un...

...card and post that is!

Some CC Earth Love paper, a Gorjuss Nellie, a coupl'a roses {I still think flowers are weird...} and a pearly pin...and that's pretty much all I have to say 'bout it!

Thanks to a heads up from super-fab Jo - I'm entering this li'l sweetie into the Simon Says "It's a Stitch-Up" Challenge. Fingers crossed for you all that you get your 200 entries!

Crafty hugs,


"Mum," said the li'l Horror. "I been thinkin' I quite fancy a rocket." No problem sweetheart, I'll just go get my purse and keys and we'll pop out and get one...

Oooooops...

...apologies for the lack of blogging peeps, but the past few days seem to have flown by without me...





Here's a quick li'l Nellie card I threw together - another paper-stash use, please note, I'm gonna have to treat myself to some new ones... ;)




Hugs,

I'm not actually here ya know...

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,

So bloggy bad...

Hmmmmm, there seems to be a serious lack of time in my li'l life right now - so much so, that I've asked my Dad to build me a tardis (that'll teach him to keep on insisting he can do anything...), then I can travel back to yesterday and do everything I couldn't quite manage today...Good plan huh? ;)



Ayways, I digress (nothing new there)... Us CCTer's were lucky enough to recieve a fabby li'l package each from Shortcuts, our sponsor for this weeks A Nip and a Punch challenge. It was imediate love** for me and I have few more pretties to share during the week too :)



So dig out your punches and dies peeps and come and join us here - the rest of the DT have amazed me yet again and there's a Shortcuts prize up for grabs, Yay!!!


Happy Craftin'


**You know that when I say "it was immediate love" that I really mean "I have a new obsession", right? At the moment their frosted card blanks are right up there with all things October Afternoon and Cosmo Cricket. Yeah, that good...

Celebrate...

Letters and Numbers is the challenge over at CCT this week ~ do go have a peeky at the usual lushness from the DT and to check out the yummy lookin' prize from this weeks sponsor Frazzled Crafts :)



I'll be back later {soon as I've found my camera & charged up the battery!} with a very cute li'l goat {yep, I still loves him!} - have a look here to find out just exactly what I'm rambling on about...

So yeah, I suck at blogging at the mo...

...but we can't all be completely perfect can we?! {*No, Lovely one, not even Perfect Girl...;) *} All sortsa schtuff goin' on that I won't bore you with, but hopefully it's all coming to an end now and I will be back in the crafty-land soon :)



So here's a sweet li'l Nellie for this weeks CCT challenge - there's a fab story to go with the challenge, have a look here to find out all about it. I used the fabby sketch over at Sketch Saturday for this card ~ love it!

And here's another little quickie card I made just because I had an envelope full of goodies arrive from Tracy over Dies to Die For - there are some Greeting Farm restocks and some of the gorgeous new Penny Black releases, so do go have a peek :)



Mermaid Anya, Daisy Bucket papers, Nesties and ProMarkers all available from Dies to Die For


Think that's it for now!

Hugs,


** That was really a li'l aside comment for a certain someone, but for everyone else too I'll explain {gotta share, right?!}...
Once upon a time a Boy noticed a Girl. The Boy didn't know the Girls name so started referring to her as Perfect Girl. Unknown to him the Girl had also noticed the Boy, but she didn't know his name either and called him the Lovely One. They did eventually find out each others names and even though time has proven them both wrong - she's actually not so perfect and at times he can be anything but lovely - the names kinda stuck...

I lubs it, OK??

Charisma Cards want some prettiness this week ~ now what could be prettier than {a li'l bit more} MME Grow & a Nellie?



Inside...



Oooooh, a little heads up ~ next months RibbonMad kit arrived on my doormat this morning. I actually sighed with delight when I opened it. Make sure you're here on the 28th...

Another one of those weeks...

...but I did manage to whip these two up...

More scruumy October Afternoon & an oh-so-adorable Mary Hall Nellie ~ lubs 'em!



And this is probably the simplest card I've made in a long time, but I kinda like it!


Just a piece of MME pp, a li'l embellie & the rather gorge Scattering Love stamp :)

Hugs,
