Thanks lil monster

Good afternoon crafty friends I hope your weekend is going well. We have had so much rain over the past few days roads are being closed off and some people are getting evacuated just up the road from me, I hope you all stay safe.

I made this card today as I need a girly thank you card but wanted a monster on there so this is what I came up with.

I am going to enter this into the:
 simon says stamp challenge-have a heart.
paper smooches sparks challenge-anything goes

I'm still trying to get blogger sorted but having no luck so I may even have to start a new blog :( but thank you all for hanging in there with me I just don't know why it wont publish my posts.


Thank you all so much for stopping by and have a great weekend and keep safe,

Welcome dude


Hello friends, how is your week going? I hope you are all keeping well. So I have tried to figure out the problems with my blog and posting and no luck :( I am going to try and figure it out over the next few weeks so hopefully you will be able to see my blog when I publish something. I was actually really surprised that you cannot contact Google about the issues which is so frustrating and strange the only advice there is and that is on a forum. Whinging over ha ha!

Anyway onto my card, I made this for the simon says stamp wednesday challenge. The bunny is from cosmo cricket and the stamps are by paper smooches. I had to add some hand stitching of course :)

I hope you like it, I have made lots of other cards recently so I will post them up soon.





Thank you so much for popping by if you have any questions please ask me :)

I hope you all have a lovely week and a great weekend, see you soon.

Flower birthday girl

Hi thank you for stopping by my blog, I love having people visit :)

Well I have been busy making more cards and we have a nice sunny day again here in the UK, what could be better? I really need to tidy up my craft space it's so messy again.... I would love to be more organized with my products.

I have made this card for a couple of challenges:
marianne design challenge blog
shabby tea room challenge #161
The ribbon girl

This card took forever to make as I hand stitched the base and image, and my thread kept getting twisted up but in the end I got there. I used watercolour pencils to colour the image.















 
So here is a list of products I used to make this card:
 
White square card (papermania)
Cosmo cricket girlfriend paper
Marianne rolled flower die English rose
Martha Stewart double scallop edge punch
Cream doily
Craft wire
Pink and bright pink sewing thread
Image from papercrafts inspirations
Derwent inktense colour pencils
Die cut tag sizzix
Versa mark ink
Personal impressions birthday stamp
Twine
Vellum butterfly
Blue crystals
Kraft cardstock-papermania
Purple card stock-papermania
Pink cardstock-papermania
Lavender cardstock-bazzil

Thank you so much for stopping by, if you have any questions about my card or the products used please ask :)
 
Have a fantastic day,

Enjoy your travels card; Shabby Tea room week #160 'beautiful blues'

Hello there! How have you been, its been so cold here in the U.K again, we did actually have a few days where the sun was out woohoo! But today its been snowing! I can't keep up with spring this year, I really hope we get lots more sunshine :)

On a much brighter note this weeks challenge at the shabby tea room was to make a card using the colours Blue,Cream or white and Kraft. We had this gorgeous photo foe inspiration. If you want to take part head on here. There are so many lovely cards from their gorgeous design team you are bound to find something to drool over.
