Pirates and Pancakes!

Hi everyone and firstly I must wish you all a very happy pancake day!  Will you be having pancakes for tea? I will but only after me, Will and Grace have had a go a flipping them!  I'm not very good at the flipping, but I have fun trying!  So what would you have on your pancakes? Tonight I will be having sugar, lemon, maple syrup and white chocolate chips, very naughty but nice for a treat!

So onto today's card this is a little make to show you some of the gorgeous new pirate ribbons from Crafty Ribbons.   The ribbons I have used on my card are Aye Aye -Red and Skull - Blue.  

Sorry I have not had chance to visit your blogs for a few days. I've had a busy weekend and now trying to catch up with some DT work.

Thanks for stopping by.

Some Colouring .................

Hi everyone, no card from me tonight but I have some colouring to share with you. Alyce from Kit and Clowder has launched a new website and on Saturday night she hosted a live colour along.  I didn't join in Saturday night but I watched the video on Sunday morning and this how I got on.  I still need loads of practice but I had great fun and learnt loads from watching Alyce colour.    You can find her new website here and it is an online community for Classes, Challenges and Support.

My Finished Home Cushion

Hi everyone, I hope you have all had a great weekend.   Mine has flown by! Yesterday I had another sewing lesson and made some bunting.  I'm a bit addicted to bunting so I'm so pleased that I can make my own! And today we booked our summer holiday, we are going to Majorca this year so I'm really looking forward to that. 

 Anyway I'm just popping on tonight to share my finished home cushion.  I'm really happy with how it turned out.   Now I've just got to decide what my next sewing project is to be!  

Thanks for stopping by.
