B is for...................Butterfly!!!!

Hi, hope everyone is enjoying their weekend.......only a week to go and then I am on annual leave for a week. Nothing exciting is planned just a few days at home, and if I have the will power I am going to do some house work..........!!!!

Then at the end of the week we are heading to the dizzying heights of Margate for a friends birthday and to see another who is home for a holiday from Oz.

Well on with the crafty stuff.....

I have been a bit slack with my 1 card a night challenge (how hard can it be really!!!) but I have been mega busy at work and also been trying to make some mini milk cartons to give to my staff team who have also been working extremely hard lately and they deserve a little something to say thanks ( will be posting those at a later date).

Ok, so although I am not really into the really girly, frilly stuff with my cards I really do like this punch despite the fact I am a minor phobia of butterflies.......scared they will get trapped in my hair!!!


I really liked the way this card turned out though...........................

This next card has been cased and I am sorry but I cant remember now where I first saw it so all credit to the original designer........although I never truely case anthing, dont usually have all the right ingredients so have to improvise on a lot of it!!

I made this one for Steve's daughter who is turning 18 tomorrow.......aaaahhhh I remember it well. I went out for my 18th and then had a job interview the next day......I put the same clothes on that I had gone out it and managed to be at the interview 20 mins early..........and I got the job!!!! Neadless to say my friends fell asleep in the car waiting for me :)

Well thats it for now, fingers crossed the weather keeps improving, it has been lovely today!!

Enjoy the week and will be back soon.

Stay safe

Bank holiday blues...

As promised....not so long before I was back posting!!!

Well it is a cold, wet, miserable bank holiday weekend....no surprises there, it has been quite a lazy old weekend with not much effort put into doing anything so the most energy I can muster is to sit infront of the computer and do a quick post!!

As I said in my last post, I am trying to work my way through a large pile of scrap card stock and DSP....unfortunatly the lady I usually sell my cards to has closed her shop so I am back to making cards for just family and friends.....which of course I love doing but at the moment I just dont seem to have any motivation to just create!!!



Moving on swiftly as I am starting to sound miserable.......this first card is a scrap creation, I am learning to be a bit more random with my stamping.....I can get caught up in things being really structured so I let loose with the stamp and I like how it turned out.



This next card is using a stamp set my Mum sent me ages ago........I love this set, the large flower is one of my favorites and is a 2 step stamp.

I decided to not put a sentiment on this card as it can then be used for just about any occassion.....you know the ones, when you totally forget and need a card in a hurry!!!

Well as I said this is only a quick post, Steve went fishing last night (madness, it was pouring with rain!!!) so need to get myself sorted so I can go and pick him up.

Hope you are making the most of the weekend

Stay safe
