A new home

Hello friends how are you all? I hope your new year is starting well. Sorry I have not blogged for a while it's been very busy the last few weeks. I have been making cards but just didn't have the time to blog but I'm back to normal now :)

I made this card last night using my new penny black stamps which are just super sweet! 

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:

penny black Saturday challenge

The backing paper is by echo park, and I made the rolled flowers and die cut the topper. After stamping and colouring I hand stitched around the edge and added a doily and banner. 

Thank you so much for stopping by today I hope you all have a lovely day and I will be back soon.

Fall card

Hello crafty friends, I hope your all having a good week. Where is this month going? I was dreading autumn to be honest after the lovely weather and sunny days but it only took a few days for me to fall in love with it again, I just love all the pretty browns & oranges. I can't believe how cold it's turned all of a sudden and the nights are getting darker.... More cosy nights in :)

And then of course there will be Halloween soon yay!!

So I was excited to see the shabby tea room host an autumn card and this is my entry. 

shabby tea room challenge week #188

I used a polkadot paper as my background and hand stitched around the edges. The pumpkin and fall stamp are by unity stamps and I thought they would match  perfectly for the challenge.

The leaf was die cut along with the branch using the cameo, and the other two leaves I used my Marianne die.

I finished off the card with two buttons and some twine. 

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog, I hope you all enjoy the rest of your week.

See you soon

A very cute plaster

Hello crafty friends how's your weekend going? My daughter is loving her jigsaw puzzles at the moment so that's keeping us busy! Along with crafting of course!

I made this card using a cute image from the silhouette store and just thought it was adorable. Anything with a smily face always makes me smile :) so I just had to use it on a get well card. I think it would also cheer up the person who gets this card too.
