Hello There!


Here is another one of the lovely Toby Tumble digi stamps from Cuddly Buddly, isn't he just so sweet? This digi is called 'Hello There!' he will also be available in rubber at the NEC and online real soon.

I have coloured him in with Copics and Prisma pencils, lots of glamour dust added for good measure. I used just a little bit of blue snowy paper from the Toby Tumble Christmas collection. The punch I used to get the lattice effect is one of the new EK chain edger punch these are a little bigger than your normal punch. The greeting stamps is also a digi stamps from Cuddly Buddly called Twelve Christmas greetings. The snow flake is the Marianne Swedish ice star die.

I am entering my card into 'Die Cut Dreams Christmas Challenge' this week which is to make a Christmas card using a digital image.

Toby Tumbles Pulling Sledge


Here is Lil Toby Tumble pulling his sledge, looks like he is on a mission doesn't it? This is one of the stamps due to be released in Nov, if you are visiting the NEC you will be able to pick them up from Kath & Katie at the Cuddly Buddly stand or if you can't wait you can buy the digi stamp now at Cuddly Buddly. This image has been coloured in with Copics and Prisma pencils, some glitter added for good measure. The paper is Toby Tumbles Christmas paper which is just fab for lovely pastel tones as well as traditional . The snowflakes where made with a Marianne die, its the circle frame but has a little snowflake in it. 

I am entering this card into the Fussy And Fancy Friday Challenge which is 'Winter Wonderland'

For The One I Love


I have been having a play with colouring Toby Tumble in not sure if he is a little dark, but over all quite pleased with my fist attempt. This is a digi stamp from Cuddly Buddly called 'For The One I Love' which prints out beautifully, much easier than stamping and looks just as good.
 I have coloured the image in with a mixture of Copics and prisma pencils. The papers are also from Cuddly Buddly they are the Toby Tumble Christmas papers, just great for all those Christmas cards. The lace edge was done with EK punch, i have no Christmas punches so will have to remedy that on my visit to the NEC :)
 I have trawled blog land looking for a challenge i can enter this into and the only one i can find is Tip Top Tuesday which is 'Anything Goes' I have a few more Toby Tumble digies to play with but first i MUST do some dreaded housework

Toby Tumbles' Urgent Delivery'


This is one of the new Toby Tumble images available from Cuddly Buddly, isn't he so sweet? he is called 'Urgent Delivery' and is available HERE,also available in digi stamp, the rubber stamps will be available soon. I have been playing with the 3D decoupage sheets, it made a pleasant change to be snipping away instead of colouring. The papers are Toby Tumble Christmas papers also available from Cuddly Buddly, they print out beautifully. I will have another card or two to share with you over the next few days so don't forget to check back on my blog. I tell you what the weather has certainly become much colder I think the woolly jumpers will be coming out real soon, think they have forecast snow for some places!

Christmas Cards


I thought i had better get my finger out and get making some Christmas cards for myself, been so busy with design team work cards for the NEC. The Toby Tumble images are just so cute, just know he will be a big success. This cute lil image is made from LOTV die cuts, I hope they will eventually be available in the cute squares as I so love the traditional colours at Christmas. The papers are from SU Christmas pack, not sure if its still available ( if it is Jules can you let me know ) Just a very plain,simple card which I am going to take into work to try and sell, wish me luck. I will be back tomorrow with another LOTV dies cuts card then hopefully I will have a Toby Tumbles card to share with you, he is available at Cuddly Buddly.

Are You Still With Me



Its been a while since I have posted anything on my blog, I will be surprised if anyone still visits my blog  lol..

I enjoyed my holiday in Tenerife, was so relaxing not having to do anything but worry about what to have off the menu for evening meal lol.. Oh well back to the real world now, seems like I have never been away now think I need another holiday now.

This is the card I made for Ali's daughters Wedding but sadly never arrived :( good old Royal mail at its best again, its really does make me mad. This card was made using a die cut from LOTV they are just great for a quick card. I used  the paper from a pack a bought at the NEC 2 years ago, they have a lovely pearly look to them.

 I am hoping to go to the NEC in November this will be the first time I have been to the Christmas show, Cuddly Buddly will also be there this year for the first time ever :) Do pop over and say hello to Kath and Katie, I am sure they will be pleased to see you.
