More challenges!

Well, Steve has decided to treat himself to 2 nights fishing this weekend so me and Spud have the house and the sofa to ourselves!! It also means I can craft all weekend guilt free!!!!! So this first card is a challenge I saw on someone elses blog but a challenge set by ILWS....I cant seem to log on there at the moment but I took up the challenge anyway........and combined it with a sketch challenge (cant remember where I found the sketch though....sorry)

This next one is also a sketch challenge that I found ages ago....I print off the picture and file them in a clear plastic folder so that in times of loss of inspiration I can flick through until an idea pops into my head!

The sun keeps trying ever so hard to burst through the big black heavy clouds and I am running in and out of the house with loads of washing trying to get it dry......in between crafting sessions that is!!! Well, best get back to it.......might do another post later, thanks for stopping by and I would love to get some comments.

Stay safe

Mojo Monday challenge

You wont believe it but my car has died again!!! Got up this morning, went to go out and nothing........why oh why do I not know a mechanic!!!

After hours of staring at the engine and wiggling this and that, Steve and I have given up on the car and it will have to go back to the garage tomorrow.

Back to crafting................as Steve went fishing on Friday night I sat as always for many hours at my craft desk getting some cards made. This one is for my niece who I have not yet met, fingers crossed her Mum and Dad will be bringing her over for a visit, this is for her first birthday! Although I followed the challenge sketch its not quite the same.........

This next card is for Steve's niece who has just got engaged........as I dont have the Mr & Mrs set I had to improvise a little but I cased the card from the SU Idea Book. I think it came out really nice, very impressed with it even if I say so myself!!!


Thanks for stopping by

Stay safe
