Do not fight with me Blogger - I will win...

So yeah, me and Blogger have been having a big ol' fight today.
It said "no Leann, you will most definitely not be loading up pictures. Hahahaha."
I said "wanna bet? Let me load up pictures or I'll make you cry."
It said "OK."

A quick and easy li'l card for both the Passion for Promarkers and Simon says Stamp challenges...

And a little bit of pretty on the inside too {possibly more so than on the inside!}


The little Horror was somewhat disgusted with this card - "Black boots? Who wears black boots these days?"


He may have a point...

Hey Pixie...

Look who I found while rummaging around in a pile of stash...


*happiest of happy sighs*
Love you lovely Pixie...

I made this li'l darlin' for the Passion for ProMarkers "Back to Nature" challenge and got so back to nature with it I stuck a whole bunch of freaky-weird flowers on it...


Some serious scrumminess going on here - quite apart from my beloved Pixie (who can be found here), there's even more MME Quite Contrary-ness.
These are from the "Jack & Jill" collection and can be found here at Dies to Die For or here at CleoCrafts...


I also have a card for the PaperPlay "Just Because" challenge...



My littlest big brother and I spent much of the late '90's {drunkenly} singing parodies of karaoke classics in the Student Union {£50 cash to be won each Thursday...desperate times you understand}. Our version of "You're so Vain" was a definite fave - anyone who ever had to fight over the bathroom as a teen will surely be able to guess the way that particular song went ;D I have no doubt that if we'd spent a fraction of the time actually studying as we did writing those parodies, we'd both be actual real geniuses right about now...

So yeah...the card...
It's a "just because I knew as soon as I saw this stamp that I was gonna make this card as a celebration of the wasted student years of two siblings" just because kinda card.
He started singin' when he opened it...

Right, I'm off - typing all that with only one working eye was rather tricky. If this gooeyness carries on much longer I shall be taking Annie's advice and making myself an eye patch. Probably a pink gingham one. With bling and ribbons...
Hugs,

Just in case anyone fancies a little sing-a-long {c'mon, you're singing it already aren't ya?} here's Ms Simon's original version.
Ya ready? One, two, three...
"You walked into the party, like you were walking onto a yacht.
Your hat strategically dipped below one eye, your scarf it was apricot..."

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,

Not just one card...

...but two!!!!
First though, I have to show you what the gorgeous SJ did for me...


It's the Horror's as Little Musings'! Isn't it just the best?!
If only they looked that looked that angelic and happy to be together in real life...


'kay, so cards...
I couldn't resist digging out some of that paper when I saw the latest Papertake challenge - in fact, it may actually have been a crime if I hadn't...



...and then I made another one...

I love this paper too!
*eeeeek, just realised tomorrow's card uses it too...oh well ;D*
Lots of the yummity-scrumity new MME papers are now in stock over at Dies to Die For (as is My Guy Ian), I'm still trying to decide which is my fave of their CHA releases...possibly it's all of 'em...
Apologies for not getting round to visit everyone - the Horror's seem to expect me to spend time with them when they're not at school... ;D
Have a good day all,

We gotta love thang goin' on...

...over at CCT this week and I just had to ink up this gorgeous li'l girlie (fanks Dawnie!)...



These gorgeous papers (new obsession perhaps?) can be found right about here at Dies to Die For - very scrum!

It's a post n' run (well, not actually run - me? As if...) from me today I'm afraid, I have 4 million and 2 things to do. Oh no, I just blogged so it's only 4 million and 1...

See y'all t'morrow!

Come and join in the fun over here, we like lots of people playing along with us ;)

Hugs,


And whats with all this pink & red & downright girliness that's going on with me at the mo?
Somethin's just not right...

WOJ colour challenge...



I had a few spare minutes yesterday so thought I'd join in with the Whiff of Joy colour challenge ~ totally adore this stamp & it seems like an age since I last inked her up!

I found some odd bits of MME paper that were just perfect {although I'm not entirely convinced I like them!} & used up some scraps of card stock that were stashed away in a drawer.



Happy Sunday y'all!



The big Horror has gone away to camp with his school ~ I miss his sarcastic little self already.When waving them all off on the bus this morning the little Horror could be seen dancing around, cheering loudly "I'm gonna sleep in your room! The Nintendo's mine! I'm not gonna miss you!" Sibling love, eh?

Let it snow...


Snow & snowflakes are the theme over at CCT and there's an oh-so-cute Whiff of Joy *Herb* stamp to be won.

Come & have a peek at the challenge & all the DT fabbiness here :)



I made a quick card with some left-over bits that were on my desk & cutie-tootie Joel too ~ the comp to guess the name of the newest Toodles & Binks release is still going on, come & leave your guesses here!

**Utterly Mojo-less**...



...but I did manage to whip up these two. Not entirely enthralled with them, but I've not blogged for an age & thought I'd better post something!

Love is in everyday moments...


The My Time to Craft challenge this week is *Bright & Bold* ~ a perfect excuse to snip into some of my scrummy Daisy Bucket papers :)
Love this little sentiment too ~ just perfect with the lovely Whiff Of Joy Willow.

Just a short post today ~ having 2 extra horrors in the house has worn me out completely! I did get to have a lovely baby snuggle this morning though ~ luckily baby started wailing before I got too broody... ;)

Have you seen Katharina's latest candy offering? Now I loved her to bits already, but I think I love her even more now!
All the details are here, but I'd prefer it if you didn't actually join in cos then I've got more chance of winning... ;)
