Hi Lovely peeps, hope everyone is well and enjoying life, Love and hugs to those that need them xxxxx
I thought I would share a card I made a couple of days ago, I have had problems getting a decent picture of it as the white insists
on coming out Pink....tut! I really need some advise on which camera I should buy next, and what you all use..eg: paintshop/picasa or what for
editing them, I am useless with this so would be grateful of any help or advice xx
Well next onto my card, I used some of my favourite spellbinders on it and so enjoyed making this one.
Kept the insert pretty simple,
Challenges .....
In The Pink..Ribbon or ruffles
Happy Sunday everyone, Hope you have sunshine where ever you are today. We had a lovely sunny day yesterday and I got loads done in the house and even managed to fit our walk in... and done a little crafting too :) so needless to say I was a very happy bunny. Sadly today is a complete change, don't you just love English weather! Today its windy, dull and chilly.
My card today is for Mo's digitalpencil which this week is Pastels.
I thought I would make a card for Little Harry across the road as he will reach his first milestone at the beginning of June He will be 1
He is such a little sweetie. It doesn't seem two minutes since my grandsons were one and here they are ranging from 20 to 26..yikes time does fly.
My card started off as a sketch by Debbie (coastalcreations) which she chose for a previous Mo challenge but it ended up with a couple of tweaks to it as I didn't want ribbon or lace on it.
Papers are Nitwit which I bought from LOTV at Harrowgate show
Martha Stewart punch
Mo's image is Kai is One
Coloured with Promarkers
Have a good day whatever you have planned.
Huge Hugs Mau xx
Good Morning everyone, Hope you had a lovely weekend and that you got some sunshine. I have had a funny old weekend :0 I got a message on Saturday morning to say my brother-in-law had passed away. My sister died 3yrs ago and he has been in pretty poor health, for a few years now. However it was quite unexpected as he was in hospital with a Hernia and on Wednesday the dc. said he thought he had stomach cancer,
he died on Friday...
These things certainly happen quickly.
Then the weekend saw Hubby and I being brought home in a break-down truck from Whitby, went for a run out and the brake pipe broke on the car so the AA brought us home...doh! Had to wait two hours for them to get to us. Do you ever get the feeling that you should stay in bed somedays, but at least the neighbours were entertained as I climbed out backwards from the lorry....lol
Now we have decided to get another little job done on the car whilst its in the garage tomorrow.....so I guess we will be paying out ridiculous money again....grrr!! don't they realise money is far better spent in craft shops, at least you can see what you get for it.
Anyway now to my card, I thought I would play with some Spellbinders Corners, sorry I forgot to jot down the name of them as my daughter bought them at Harrowgate show and cut me some. I saw a card like this on Amazing Paper Grace (Becca's blog) So thought I would try it out. It doesn't come anywhere near Becca's of course :( There is a link to her blog on my side bar.
also used....
Spellbinders"Adorning Squares!
Flowers are Wild Orchid and ribbon from stash
Nitwit Paper..sob sob (my last piece of this one)
Hopefully can do some hopping tomorrow whilst waiting for the car to come back.
Hugs to everyone xxx
Hi lovely bloggy friends hope the sun is shining where you are, It is glorious here and my chair is out in the garden awaiting my presence. I am going to have an hour knitting, I will show you my card and link it up and then I am off to enjoy the sun before it vanishes.
My card is quite simple but I am struggling with colouring images at present :( I seem to have lost my mojo for colouring.... I am sure it will return though in its own good time ....lol
sorry about the pics they were all fuzzy yesterday for some reason, must have had a shaky hand ....lol bit wonky too..oh dear! and that's without a glass of the red stuff...lol
I am entering it into
"Without Words challenge...Little April showers//Blue
I think its been more than a shower looking at her soggy boots ....lol
Well catch you all later tonight and do some hopping. Enjoy your afternoon xxxxx

Good Morning Lovely Bloggers :)
I have so missed blogging, but had dreadful Neuralgia and felt really out of sorts. I guess I caught cold in my face/head when out on a walk...a right pain in the head its been :~~ dreadful headaches, However things seem to have cleared and I can see straight again which it more than I have been able to do. I couldn't tolerate the PC screen, Had Neuralgia many times before but never as bad as this session.
Now to better things :) I sat and made a card yesterday, and Thought before I go blog hopping that I would share it. Its just to go into the spare box. I might do a craft stall in May to raise funds for the food bank at church (People in the community that are struggling)
I decided to use one of my favourite colours turquoise, Paper is Nitwits :) I used Spellbinders Parisian accents die for the sentiment and punched a few flowers, added pearls, Organza bow and pins and there you have it.
I will try and link it to a couple of challenges shortly, but first I need the Beef in the oven or we will be having Dinner at 7pm instead of 4.30
Before I go I will show you my Grandsons new addition to his household, isn't he adorable!
This is Dexter
I so love Black Labs, he has just had all his jabs so he is now able to go out. This was taken on his first visit to my house a couple of weeks ago, but he couldn't go out for walkies :(
Huge Hugs
Mau xx
