All The Best For 2011


I hope you all had a lovely Christmas? We all went out for dinner Christmas day it was wonderful to be waited on, no cooking or washing up will defiantly save my pennies so we can do it again next year.
I can't believe its New Years Eve where has the last 12 months gone?? Everyone seems to be saying the same this year. I would like to thank everyone who has visited my blog over the last twelve month whether you have left a comment or not, It would be nice to know if you have paid a visit by leaving me a little comment but I know its time consuming leaving comments on all the blogs we visit.

I would like to say a 'Happy New Year' to each and everyone of you lets hope it brings you Health, Wealth and Happiness and lots of craft goodies lol... ;) 

This card was made very quickly with a digi greeting from Cuddly Buddly that I downloaded and  resized to fit in a nestabilities, its a lovely greeting don't you think ? We should all believe in our heart where ever it may take us. The papers are also a download Exotic flavours from Cuddly Buddly they are so funky and modern.

New Toby Tumbles Digi's


There are some new Toby Tumbles digi releases over on Cuddly Buddly.
This little digi is Toby Tumbles 'Happy Easter', he was a real pleasure to colour in as I'm sure the others will be. There another two Toby Tumble images and a cute little doggie one as well :)
I know,I know its months away until Easter but its so nice to see all those lovely bright colours and Daffodils.
Toby Tumbles has been coloured in with Copics and prisma's with glossy accents to the daffodil heads.

I hope you are all prepared for Christmas? I'm almost there just some food shopping to do which hopefully we will get done tomorrow, hopefully we won't have any of the fluffy white stuff to content with.

Nothings Too Much Trouble


Here is another Toby Tumble card made using 'Nothings To Much Trouble' he certainly is trying his best to pull that box up the steps isn't he? The papers are Toby Tumbles 'Hearts & flowers' they really are beautiful papers and print out a treat, I can see me using these on lots of cards in the future. 
I hope you are all prepared for Christmas? I have to say I am almost done but then again still have cards to write and prezzies to wrap , its all go go go this time of year isn't it? 
Oh well its looks like the snow is going to return,looks like we won't escape it either this time judging by the weather report. I think I best treat myself to some new wellies :)

This week is challenge week over on the Cuddly Buddly Blog, the theme being 'The Icings On The Card' so we want to see you create a card with a little icing, frosting or glitter using a stamp, digi or download from the Cuddly Buddly shop. There is a fabulous prize of a £20 gift certificate up for grab, you have until the 13th of January to complete your card, as we are taking a little time off over Christmas.

My card has been made with the free papers from the last challenge, the snow family has been coloured with Copics with a sprinkling of glamour dust. The little snowflakes around the circle is actually the Nellie stamen punch,  border punch is from EK.

I hope you are all having a better week now the weather has warmed up considerably.

Just saying Hi


Here we go with another nice spring card to try and chase away those winter blues. This Bunny with a big heart as certainly won my heart, he is just so sweet. This is one of the new Toby Tumble rubber stamps called 'Just To Say Hi' he has been coloured with copics and prisma pencils. The beautiful flowers are once again prima they are so pretty, love the lilac range as well as the pink. The new Toby Tumble hearts and flowers papers are so pretty, love this colour combo. The little greeting is from the Twelve Christmas Greeting digi stamps  and has been made by using the smallest nesties circle and cutting from with in the greeting stamp so only picking up the sentiment. 
I hope you are all over the worst of the snow, we have had hardly any of the white stuff here, thankfully.
I am not a happy bunny at the moment as I have toothache, been to the dentist twice this past week and have to wait until Wednesday for a root filling, not happy as I'm still in pain with it. I have been looking on the Internet for emergency clinic in our area and see there is one in Chester so will have to give them a ring tomorrow i think :( stupid teeth give you nothing but trouble.....

Embellishments ~ Prima flowers, Bow & pearls, Crochet Lace
