Winter Wonderland Challenge .........

Hi all just a quick post from today as I'm still feeling poorly.  I think I have forgotten what it's like to feel normal! 

Anyway enough of my moaning, onto my card which is my DT card for Winter Wonderland and our theme for you this week is ' Sing a Song' so we want to see Carol Singers on your card this week.  

I would like to enter my card into this week's Sketch n Stash sketch challenge.

Flower Face

Hi everyone, I have a scrapbook page to share with you tonight which I made in my Serif software. I so love this software the more I use it the more I love it!  This page was a featured project on the Daisy Trail website yesterday which was really lovely.   I'm also very happy that I have recorded another memory for Grace. 

And at last there has been some sunshine in Norfolk today!  Lets hope it's here to stay!

Thanks for stopping by.

Time for a Tag .............

Hi everyone, I'm a bit late posting my Pollycraft Monday Challenge as I've not been well this week.   The doctor says it's a virus don't they always say that!  Anyway the stronger painkillers I finally got are helping a bit. 

Anyway enough of my moaning, the challenge at Pollycraft was a colour challenge set by my DT buddy Sheena and this is the photo to take inspiration from:


I decided to make a tag for my DT creation this week as I just love making tags.
The image on my tag is from the Swings and Slides range from Pollycraft and is called Lollipop.  There are some great offers in the Pollycraft Shop as Paula is closing the shop shortly so take a look before they are gone!

Thanks for stopping by.

Jump!

Hi everyone, what a rubbish day I have had.  I have not felt well and my computer wouldn't work properly so that nearly went out of the window, I forgot to my pack lunch and then Sat Nav took me on scenic tours of Norwich so that nearly went out of the window as well! I was so glad to get home from work today!

The lady that I made the Nemo card for did come and collect it tonight and was very happy with it so at least the day has finished on a better note!

And finally after all my running on I thought I would share another layout from Grace's Birthday Album that I am working on. I'm so enjoying creating these layouts on my computer each night. 

Thanks for stopping by.

Finding Nemo ..........

Hi all, I have a very different card to share with you today which I was asked to make for an order.  The theme of the card I was asked to make was with the fish Nemo.  I wasn't quite sure what I would be able to come up with but I googled this image and printed it out on photo paper and it came out really well.  I'm so pleased with how the card turned out.  The papers on the card where some free ones from a magazine and they went perfectly with the image.  I hope the lady likes who I have made it for.

I also had some lovely news yesterday that my Turning 4 layout which I posted yesterday was a featured project on the Daisy Trail website and I have had loads of lovely comments about it which was very nice.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

ABC Challenge - O is for Orange
Paper Craft Challenge - Happy Birthday
Cute Card Thursday - One for the Boys

I hope you all have a very happy Tuesday.

Turning 4 Birthday Layout ............

Hi everyone, I hope you are all enjoying the Bank Holiday Monday.  I got to play with my Serif software last night and created another page for Grace's 4th Birthday album.  I'm really starting to get a bit better with the software now and starting to find out the tools work.  As much as I love my paper scrapbooking it is lovely to just sit on the sofa with my laytop and create a page.

Thanks for stopping by.

Crafter's Companion Monthly Challenge ....

Hi everyone now please can someone tell me where April went! I seemed to have blinked and missed it! I'm still only half way through my Christmas scrapbook and it will be Christmas again before I know it at this rate!

Anyway as it is the first of the month it's time for another challenge at Crafter's Companion Challenge and our theme for you this month is 'Here comes summer'.  I think this is a great theme for this month as the weather has been so bad we need to see some nice summery cards!

I have used a fab Card Companion from the new A Year With Humphrey CD on my card.  I so love this image as it really makes me think of summer days!

I hope you will join in with the challenge.  As always there is a fantastic prize for the winner.

Thanks for stopping by.
