Mo's got Spots.....

No only kidding :o)) She hasn't really got spots...well I don't think she has!
  However over at Mo's Digital there is lots of them.
This week I am your host, and
 the theme I have chosen is Spots before my eyes.

So find your spotty papers  and come play at Mo's.

Thank you for all your entries last week, 
you create the most wonderful creations week after week.
This week I used Broken b, this of course is the boy version 
of the cutie I used last week. I just couldn't resist using him, these are the sweetest images to colour, and with a fabulous selection of texts you can purchase, they are sure favourites.

I think this little chap knows his dad will come up trumps yet again.
I imagine any Daddy would love his little boy to send him a card like this, it says it all.

The papers are LOTV NitWits Country Gent
I used SB lge. Rectangles dies and created my own corners
Candy and brads from stash
The sentiment is from Mo's
Not sure what the SB tag Die is. 
 need to check it out as it was candy from Nicole
Cream and brown corded ribbon

Well that's it for today, I hope you like my theme for this week and will pop over to Mo's and join in xxxxx
 Don't forget you must use a Mo image for the chance to win.
Please try and leave the teamies  some love if you have time, they love you to call.

Rocking around...

Happy weekend everyone,
Just thought I would pop on with a card I made last night, sorry I don't feel the picture is all that wonderful. I think the heavy rain and black clouds this morning had a little to do with that. However the sun is now shining ..can you believe this weather!!!!
I decided to use a Bugaboo stamp (Gus) but to be honest I struggled with what papers to use!  so its not quite what I had in mind when I started....lol   Normally I plan it all together before I start, this time I went with the flow and the flow just didn't happen...it sort of stopped mid stream :o(
So that's it, hope I have a better afternoon....lol
I will be around to catch up with commenting shortly.
Have a super weekend, and stay warm xxxxxx

Somedays are better than others .....

........And today is one of those days!
Hi Everyone, 
 its Thursday and a New Mo challenge, This week its "Layers"  
chosen by our super talented  Franz 
For my card I have chosen the cute "Broked"
Isn't she just adorable! you can tell she dressed herself with her PJ bottoms on backside first..aww! and now her poor Ted has gone and lost his head...wonder if she pulled it off! or just tooo many cuddles.
 I think she will become a firm favourite with me.
The Papers are Tilly daydream from Docrafts, the sentiment is one of Mo's super set that are designed for these sweet images.
Now its your turn to show us your creations, Lets see lots of layers please. 
Remember you must use a Mo image,  there's $5 to spend in Mo's shop for the winner.
Hope you will pop over and see what the rest of the team have made to inspire you, if you have time please leave them some love. xxxxxxxx

Not another Blue.....

Hi everyone, Hope you have sunshine, its glorious here and we are off to town to do the usual fresh food shop.
First I wanted to post yet another blue card..This is 4 in a row, I must be in the blue mode. will be a different colour next time I promise.
I came across the Saturday Sketch blog  over the weekend and decided I would follow them and join in, I spend far too long fiddling with sketches lately, I am not good at arranging things on my cards....You may have noticed that...lol
 Here is my entry for this weeks challenge, rather a CAS sketch but I am happy with how it turned out.
I used a stamp from IndigoBlu set my Grandson bought me.
 Not sure I am happy with the verse inside..may change it.
Not sure it went with the front one really???? what do you think!
Right I am off to the shops whilst the sun is shining, Whatever you are doing..have a good day xxxx

Something New challenge at Mo's

Happy Thursday everyone, 
Today just like the title says Mo's challenge is Something New  Now that can be whatever you like!  a new craft item ..a new technique, New Baby, whatever comes to mind as long as its new and you tell us what it is.
Remember it must have at least one of Mo's images on it and then you will qualify for the random draw to win a $5 credit for Mo's store :o) oh those lovely new images are so hard to resist too.
Here is my card I used "Bride & Groom Dancing
This is A New Beginning for my dearest friend, She met a gentleman in September and they are getting married on March 8th...fast going eh! if she wasn't 69 I would have been thinking a new baby card was in order ;o)


 The inside I decided to continue the lace theme and add two tags into a pocket, one has Bride on and a LOTV sentiment, the second tag has Groom and together forever on it.
Well that's it for me,  I am off to get that walk in that never happened yesterday. We spent the whole afternoon with our daughter, catching up on her Holiday and soaking up the hugs :o)) She is so funny, she said I am up out of bed but feel Numb, feel like I have been around the world in Dc. Who's Police box.....lol   Not surprised as it took 47 hrs to get home.

Don't forget to pop over to Mo's and see the fab creations from the DT , and leave a little love, they just thrive on Love x
Hope you can join us and play along xx

A frosty sparkle!

Good Morning all, 
Well the  grey locks have been cut for another few weeks, so feeling a little lighter on top :o)) 
Today we plan on getting a decent walk in as we have been so busy this past week that its been neglected, we need to get into our routine again. Our daughter came back from South Africa last night, so will be more than happy to see her later today....if she can get out of bed after her travels....lol she left SA on Monday morning and arrived home at 9pm last night :o( I think travelling on her own was really tiring, she has a 13 hr stop in Istanbul between plane change, so I have been paranoid....lol   Anyway lots of  hugs to get in today :o))
.
Well have a card to show, again I will enter it into Simon says Stamp challenge as I think it will fit the Ice challenge perfectly, Its very frosty looking with all the sparkly icicles and snowball. I intend to make Christmas cards all through the year as lots of people didn't get one last year and I felt dreadful about it. I always used to start them in November so how I ever manage before I haven't a clue....lol
 Well that's it this morning as going to squeeze that walk in and also go and fit a mirror to my sisters mobility scooter for her. She had a fall from it the other day and ended up falling half into the road....gulp!! but she came out of it fine and said she won't go  that way to the shops again as the pavement is wonky....lol I think she misjudged the edge of kerb but she is OK and that's what matters. She does complain that she can't see behind her very well though because of her neck and shoulder problem, so a mirror will help that.
Well that's it so will.....
 Catch you later xxx

No Ice today!!

Hi everyone, Hope everyone has some of this glorious Sunshine today :o)) I am off to the hairdresser but wanted to add my card to Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge before I go. This is another of the challenges on my New year Wish list. I wrote down about 6 or 7 ....but blimey don't the weeks go by fast! I am not sure I will keep up!
 Anyway the challenge is Ice Inspiration so I thought I would use this Marianne Stamp called ..... Ice Skating, well I think its called that?
I had to take my picture laid flat ...which I don't like! but the sun was so bright it was hard to photograph and also get the sparkle to show.
Well off to get the golden hmm!!! Grey locks cut and some shopping in and I will catch up tonight with your lovely creations.xxxxxxxx
