Evening everybody, hope you all had some lovely goodies yesterday and were totally spoiled.  I know I was, dinner cooked for me and lovely pressies, some of which were digi images from the Paper Shelter and Kenny K's.  I'm really looking forward to using them :).

Anyway on to my latest creation which I am entering into Sketch Saturday Challenge  and also CES Challenge - Children - either on the card or for them.

Enjoy what's left of the evening.

Wedding Acceptances

Happy weekend to you all.  I hope you manage to get many happy hours in your crafty little places this weekend (after breakfast in bed of course and some TLC),  some of you maybe with your new goodies you've had for Mother's Day.  I know I'm hoping to get some little surprises (nice crafting ones I hasten to add) and then I can disappear into my little world too.

Anyway onto my two creations for today, and who knows there may be another one later on :).  These are two wedding acceptance cards in reply to a couple of invites we had earlier in the year.  I have crafted each one in the theme of each wedding.  The first one is white and cadbury blue and is just 5" in diameter.  The second has a theme of butterflies and the colour pink and is 4" square.  Hope you likey.

Happy crafting.

2nd Post of the Evening

Hello again.  Just wanted to show you a birthday card I've done after seeing the design on Donna's blog.  Thanks Donna, I hope I've done it justice and yes your instructions were clear enough to follow so thanks again.

I've used a Kenny K image and coloured it with Promarkers and glittered the wings.

Well that's it for tonight folks.

A Decoupage Card

Good evening all.  The card I have to show you today has an image that is decoupaged.  The papers are from First Edition Papers - Desert Blooms that I picked up from the craft show at the NEC last weekend (along with lots of other gorgeous goodies that I just couldn't resist :-) ) I just love the colour of these papers!

 I've had the decoupage image for some time and when I saw the challenge over at Crafty Cardmakers Spotlight Challenge (Spotlight on Decoupage) I took the opportunity to use it.  I have used my Martha Stewart 'Doily' border punch, Spellbinders nestabilities, Nellies multi-frames (inside) and the ribbon and flowers are from my stash.  The card also follows the sketch over at LORA Crafts Sketches. 

I am entering this card into Crafty Cardmakers Spotlight Challenge - Spotlight on Decoupage.

Have a good evening.

Two Lovely Surprises

Hi all,  I have made a couple of cards that I would like you to see but unfortunately the batteries in my camera have died.  I did try to borrow the ones from the telly remote, but that didn't go down very well with Other Half, so I will have to wait until I can buy some tomorrow.  Anyway on to happier events - I discovered that I had been picked by Random Org on Gem of a Challenge Challenge 16 (thank you ladies) and have now received my goodies which I shall be displaying on my cards hopefully in the near future.  The second surprise was to receive a super award from Mel.  Thank you so much Mel, it's so kind of you.

I would like to give this award to:-

 Donna

 Lyndsey

Sarah

 Diane

Thanks so much for following my blog :-)

Hope you have all had a good evening.

Lora Crafts Sunday Sketches

Well I said I would be back with the sketch at Lora Crafts Sunday Sketches.  It's a little late, but better late than never I say!  I have used one of Kenny K's digi images and the papers are from K&Co Designer Mat Pad, Hopscotch.  I think the papers look a little sweet for a boy, but that's probably because I thought the pad said male papers. The front of the pad it had a little boy on it so I assumed - d-u-u-h.  What an idiot.  That'll teach me to think about what I'm doing in future.  Anyway I've decided this guy likes bright colours!

Hope you all had a good weekend.
