Winter Wonderland Challenge ......

Hi everyone, I hope you are all enjoying the bank holiday weekend. I have to admit I have not seen much of the Royal Wedding yet as I took Grace to an indoor play activity place this morning.

The fun image on my card is from Stamping with the Dragon

A Man's Card ........

Hi everyone, I hope you are all enjoying the Easter break. I've got a sinus infection so my blog has been a bit quiet this week. I am starting to feel a bit better but I still just can't get rid of this headache!

Anyway just a quick post to share this card I made a few days ago using the Forever Friends Retro mens kit. I really love this kit as it is packed with papers, decoupage and toppers and is great for quick cards.

I hope to catch up with all my blogging buddies over the weekend and see what crafty creations you have made this week.

A Princess Card!

Hi everyone, thanks to all my blogging buddies that wished my little girl Grace a Happy Birthday for yesterday. As I can't make a Princess cake like my talented sister I have instead made a princess card for Grace. I used a new nitwit digi kit to make my 8 x 8 card which I love making at the moment!

Sorry I have not returned your comments lately, I have been so busy with Grace's Birthday and DT work. I will catch up with you all soon.

My last Little Claire Cards .....

Hi everyone, these are my last DT cards from Little Claire's which I made quite sometime ago now. As much as I love all the designs from Little Claire's I was struggling to keep up with all my DT work so I decided to step down from the team.

These new stamps were released this week and here are my two cards which I made with them.

I've got a busy day ahead tomorrow as we are having a little family party for my Grace who will be 3 years old on Tuesday!

Pollycraft Monday Challenge .......

Hi everyone, as its Monday its time for another challenge at Pollycraft Designs and our theme this week set by my DT buddy Kylie is 'Use an old neglected image or stamp'. I'm so pleased that Kylie set us this challenge as Paula from Pollycraft always gives us so many lovely new images that I sometimes forget about some of the older ones that I love! This gorgeous girl reading a book is called 'Melody My Fairytale' from the Sweet Dreams Range from Pollycraft.

The papers on my card are by Crate Paper and are from Abi's Craft which I choose with my £100 voucher when I won their Valentines Competition. The products from Abi's crafts are really fantastic so I must recommend them. Their ribbon, gems and flowers are all great quality.
