Tick tock...


Me and Time aren't getting along too well at the moment - I ask for a little bit more, he (time's gotta be a He right? Selfish, stingy...need I continue?) laughs and says no...So right now, all the time I do have is being spent on super-dooper, top secret schtuff...I hate to post without a piccie though, so here's a little sneaky of January's CleoCrafts kit...




How scrummy? I actually swooned when I first opened the box.


Errrr, what else do I need to tell you? The newest challenge went up on CCT today - I'd love to win that prize!!!!! And how gorgeous are the rest of the DT's examples?

Lots of delish new stock over at Dies to Die For - new Miss Anya's here, loads in the special offer section here and the Winter Sale is going on here, happy shopping peeps!

I'll finish off with a big thank you hug to you all :)

I just ate an entire chocolate orange all by myself...

...and yes, I do feel sick now... ;)





I'm feeling incredibly time-short this week, this card's been ready to post since Friday, but I've just not had the chance to get on the 'puter...as well as the usual Christmas play rehearsals, school parties etc, we also manged to squeeze in a fab decoration workshop yesterday. This was sooooo much fun - it was organised by the Forestry Commission and was all about making Chrimbo decorations out of things that were growing in the forest - great fun!
So anyways, the card...




Mo Manning's utterly gorgeous stamps are now available from Stampavie and I couldn't resist inking up this pair :)
I decided to keep the layout of the card really simple to show off the fab image and because I wanted to use one of the fantastic new Rachelle Ann Miller sentiment stamps - aren't they brilliant?!
You can find details of Stampavie stockists here (or you can just head on over to Dies to Die For - the Rachelle Ann Miller stamps are here, Mo Manning ones here ;) )

Happy Monday all!
A big, big thank you for all your visits, I read every one of the comments I'm left and they really do all mean the world to me :) I'm really hoping to find the time for an extra big blog hop very soon!

Swirly girlies...


...is the theme over at CCT and this week we're sponsored by Nutcrafters.

My card hasn't ended up quite how I'd pictured it...where did this dirty bit of craftin' come from??!! Even Tilda's face looks a bit grubby, poor love!



Two of my current stamp faves make an appearance today - the beloved Lost Coast Designs swirl and that oh-so-sweet sentiment, love 'em!
You can see the full challenge details and all the other yummies from the DT here :)

Have a great day all!

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow...

...I'm looking out of the window toward some not so far away mountains and they are covered in snow - yay!!!!!!

Anyways...heehee...as soon as I saw the Passion for PROMarkers "Anything but a card" Mega Chrimbo Challenge I knew I wanted to make some li'l tags.

These sweetie snowmen from The Greeting Farm are adorable, but tiny - perfect for taggin'!




Keep Cozy stamps, My Minds Eye Colorful Christmas papers and Martha Stewart Arctic Snowflake punch can all be found at Dies to Die For.

I had all the bits already cut and coloured for this little Tilda tag - she was originally going on a card, but I kinda like her just like this!

Yup, my beloved swirly stamp came along to say hi today too ;) For those of you who asked it's by Lost Coast Designs



Have a great Tuesday (I'm taking big Horror to the dentist this afternoon - is it wrong that I might giggle evilly and be glad it's not me sitting there, while his teeth are prodded and poked?)
