Happy 3!

Today CCT celebrates its third birthday - pretty amazing huh?

That's pensionable age in blog challenge years, y'know...

You can check out the challenge and all the fabbiness from the DT here.

Come along and join in with us - you'd be making a group of old timers very happy :)

A "just because I felt like it " kinda card...

You have moments like this too, right?

You see a few paper scraps, a stamp {or two - I was playing Frankenstein again} and you it just gives you an urge to get making...

Hope you're enjoying your day - we're just back from a very muddy football pitch.

So muddy that I'm thinking of bypassing the bath and just turning the pressure washer on the Horrors'...

Catch you laters!

Second to the right and straight on 'til morning...

Can you guess which book li'l Horror and I are currently working our way through?!

As some of you know, I inhale books at about the same speed most suck up oxygen and in this house a LOT of bookmarks are needed - I couldn't resist whipping up this little one :)

Scrummy seam binding and delicious button twine can be found at The Ribbon Girl

The current ABC challenge is M for Magical - it doesn't get much more magical than Never Land ;)

So come with me, where dreams are born, and time is never planned. Just think of happy things, and your heart will fly on wings, forever, in Never Never Land.

Enjoy your day :)

Dontcha just hate when post title inspiration doesn't happen?

A quick little card using some more delish Ribbon Girl goodies today...

Scrummilly perfect green ribbon and button twine...

...sigh...

Thanks for stopping by :)

Sweet Thing...

The usual quick little share today...

Image: Oh Boy! Ian

Papers:  MME True Blue

Pens: Copics & ProMarkers

...made with the Creative Craft World "Cute and Cuddly" challenge in mind.

Hope you're having a happy-crafty day!

Whoo Hoo!

I have a happy little card to share today - and it feels like there's a LOT to mention about it for something so small!

First up the theme over at CCT is "Out with the old!" - we want you digging through those stash mountains!

I unearthed this TGF stamp set (eeeek! I seem to remember buying this when it was released - I'm ashamed to admit it was still sealed in the packet...), some gorgeous MME Tickled Pink paper (again, still sealed) and I even gave my pencils an airing :)

There are a few new bits of stash on there too, though - the lovely Ribbon Girls very kindly asked me to guest design for them this month and here's my first card :)

You can find this gorgeously stripey twill ribbon, fab spotty button and a whole heap of other yummies over at the Ribbon Girl store.

This week they're sponsoring the Charisma Cardz "Celebrations" challenge - I think with that total look of glee on her face, my card fits!

Hope you're having a great day - thanks for stopping by :) 

Oooops...

...I didn't mean to leave it quite so long between posts!

Here's a quick little card I stuck together using the latest Club Anya sketch...

The latest theme over at CCT is "One for the Kids" - go check it out, there's a $25 MFT voucher up for grabs :)

Hope you're all staying warm and cozy - I'm off for another quick play in the snow before it gets dark...

Hugs,

Anything goes...

My little card for this weeks CCT "Anything Goes" challenge...

Papers: Pink Paislee Old School

We have a fab sponsor as always and there's some serious eye candy to be seen from the rest of the DT - do go take a peek :)

That's all I have for you today my lovelies - I'm eagerly awaiting the return of Misfits tonight.

In the absence of the Inbetweeners and my beloved Simon, Nathan'll just have to do...

Something Special...

Well, I'm still on a tag kick today peeps - my excuse being the fab Stamp Simply challenge I stumbled across earlier :)

Sentiment from TGF's Special Autumn set

I added a little pocket to this one, just perfect for tucking in a little gift card {or your Game loyalty card if that's all you can find for photographic purposes!}

Think that's it for today my lovelies - thanks for stopping by :)

I'm off for a drool over at No Time Stamp - it may just be the new place I stalk  my newest love

...sigh...

A reason to smile...

Eeeeeek - I can't believe it's been so long since I blogged!

Anyways, I just wanted to share this little tag {must 'fess up to a bit of a tag fetish at the mo!} I made for the newest Patertake challenge...

Just a quick little card to share today that I glued together for a coupla challenges - Craftalicious have an "Anything Goes" theme, while Stamp Something are all about punches...

Yep, looks like tonight I'm likin' big pictures...

Thanks for stopping by :)

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 :)

Coloured with ProMarkers

Papers: Crate Paper Little Sprout

Sooooo, the challenges I picked are....

Simply Stripes

Autumn Haze

A Stitch in Time &

Button It!

.............................................................

Thank you Papertake lovelies for all the inspiration over the years - enjoy your birthday!

Hugs,

It's all about me...

Heya :D

This weeks CCT challenge is a nice and easy sketch by me - c'mon, it was never gonna be a complex one was it?!

And that's my super simple take on the sketch.

Yep, it's another of my "I wanna be Frankenstein" TGF Roll Call Kit creations...

Do go and have a peek at the rest of the DT's cards - they're fab!

Have a good 'un all - I'm drenched in my own snot at the mo and not too happy about it...think an early night is in order!

Hugs,

Tag, you're it...

Hey all,
Just a quick share today - a little tag I stuck together for the li'l Horror's school bag...

Image is from TGF's Roll Call Kit
Papers are the very lovely new Road Trip line from Prima
Wonky name added by li'l Horror himself - Kaisercraft rub-ons :D

I'm amazed to say that for something so tiny, this fits the bill for a coupla challenges!
Stamp Something want to see spots and stripes and both the Pink Elephant & Creative Card Crew are heading back to school.

Thanks for visitin'!
Hugs,

GenetINKally** Modified...

Heya, how's you?
Hopefully not constantly running around like a loon as I am at the mo, wondering if anyone's noticed you didn't get time to brush your hair again...
I hoping to get around to everyone's blogs very soon {I hate that real-life hasn't yet realised that blog-hopping is A Very Important Thing} - thank you for coming over to visit mine :D

Soooooo, today I have a bit of stamp mutilation for you - dontcha just love the fact that you can swap the heads on TGF stamps?
{No? Just me who fancies herself as Frankenstein then?}

This li'l cutie has been mutated created by using two sweeties from TGF's Roll Call Kit {the sentiment is from the set too} - Paul's head stuck on toppa Dylan's body, all coloured in with ProMarkers.
The paper's are my latest freaky obsession love MME Alphabet Soup Boy...happy sigh...

Few challenges for this fella - Moving Along With the Times & PaperPlay Challenges
both want to see some stitching and Stamp Something are after something cute - think I'm covered for all that ;D

I'll catch y'all soonest - be good!
Hugs,

** I couldn't stop myself - I'm sorry... ;D

L8r sk8er...

Just a quicky, quicky post - I swear life couldn't actually get any busier right now!
I had to share a card I managed to make for the Anyone for Anya "Stitch it!" and the Crafty Catz "Buttons & Bows" challenges though - I seriously love the new TGF Later Sk8er set!
I also had the Simon Says Stamp "Sing it Baby!" challenge in mind - I couldn't help but sing Avril Lavigne's Sk8er Boi while I was colouring this li'l cutie! I have great memories of a much tinier big Horror loving that song!

Make sure you take a peek at this weeks CCT challenge too - the theme is "Whateva!" and there's a fab prize on offer too :D

Catch y'all soonest!
Hugs,

Dear Blog...

...I'm sorry I've neglected you...what can I say other than I'm crap {and let's be honest, you kinda knew that already}?
I promise I'll try my very hardest to be more attentive to you from now on...well, provided Jacob Black doesn't come howling along distracting me...

..............................................................


So anyways, I have a little something to share with you all today...being as it is a *ahem* "special" day for me and all that...

A li'l bit of sweet schtuff for the Anyone for Anya "Anything Goes" challenge :D

Love these Sweet Toooth Critter's from TGF {and eeeeeek!!! DTDF has them in the sale - whoooo-hoooo!}

I'll catch y'all laters - I'm off to eat cake ;D

Hugs,

I'm not drooling...my mouth's just leaking...

Heya :D
A quickie post tonight - I'm really busy drooling all over watching Soccer Aid...

I have a speedy little notebook to share today - I'm forever making notebooks for the Horror's, I do love seeing little hands busy with pencils and paper! I have a stack of tiny 10p jotters stashed away ready to make pretty!

I used the very sweet Greeting Farm Oliver from the Buddies set
- I wanted to join in with the newest Anyone for Anya challenge & I reckon this chappie in his summery shorts and tee will fit in just fine :D

Have a great evening - I'm gonna return to my drooling...;D
Hugs,

It's Thursday...

...but you knew that already, right?

We have a colour combo for you over on the CCT blog this week.
It's this one 'ere:

And this is what I came up with:

I'm gonna sneak this into the {very nearly finished!} Crafty Catz "The boyz are back" challenge - thanks for the inspiration Crafty Catz girls!

As always, we'd love you to come and join in the CCT challenge with us!

Hugs,
