XOXO ............

Image- XOXO.

Hi everyone! I'm awake after work and just having my brekkie so thought I would share my Dream Team make with you all. Isn't she just the cutest little sweetheart? I love her little chubby cheeks!!

She is perfect for so many occasions with those little flowers in her hand but I had that christmas feeling in my bones as we had a bit of a christmas movie afternoon and little Mo wrote some christmas cards he had designed by himself for family.

I coloured her up with my promarkers and then added some yummy white dots with my gel pen on her dress and little boots.

Thank you for popping in, Hugs Lou xxx

Freddie.....

Stamp- Freddie.
Papers- Bo Bunny dots.

Morning everyone!

I'm in with a make using one of those gorgeous new Wee Stamps rubber stamps this morning. OOOOOH I loved them all but just had to get Freddie and Rudolph as my little Mo neeeeeeeed them...and I of course had to quality control test them for him...he he he he!!!

I made myself a shaped card using my  Die Namics Blue Prints 9. I used the little tab joining bit normally for the bottom to attach the tops of the tag shapes together and then just trimmed off the edges with my scissors.

Stamps- Hug in a Mug.
Morning all...well just anyways!!

Last night at 9pm I got the ooooh gotta play with my new Mini Snowflakes dies feeling!! Luckily a couple of weeks ago I had coloured up the delicious Coffee App from Saturated Canary....which is good because the right side of my neck is still really niggling me and I haven't felt much like doing anything this week other than a good old mooch around!!!! butlast night the umpf got me and I just payed around inking and layering up those adorable little flakes!! I can see them being on a whole tonne of makes soon! wahoooooooo chrimbles is coming!!!!!

Right, I am off to warm up a wheaty bag, apply heat rub and have a little nana nap. The winds have been so high here the last couple of days and Little Mo hates wind :( he is petrified by the noise so we've had 3 nights of a little crying visitor plopping into our bed in the dark of the night, poor chappy :( he loves his sleep so it takes a real thing he can't cope with to wake him. Lots of love and snuggles to calm him ends in mummy and daddy zombie look!!! lol!!...but we rock it!!! lol!!

Have a fabulous rest of the day everyone, huge hugs Lou xxxx

All linkies you need are above and huge thanks to Kelly for an awesome new fun tutorial to follow! y'all know I love new folds!! and I even delved into my lovely little random mix bundle of cardstock for this one, its daftly exciting to play with papers when you don't know whats coming in the pack! I LOVED this bright and zingy paper!

Right, I have got to go! need to get myself sorted for picking up the car! its a few miles away from our home so we are setting off from school with Scott's dad to get it. It will be so lovely to have our own car. I have felt very worried about driving since last wednesday so Scott is hoping to get my confidence back a little today. the new car is automatic so thats a lovely treat!!

Valerie in the snow..

Papers- Carta Bella Merry and Bright.
Morning all!

I am multi tasking this morning with some Mo Manning cuteness!! so links to the digital or rubber versions of this little Valerie with Snowball are just below the photo up there.

I love Valerie so I just had to put the last one of the image set into action (...Lou makes mental note to ask Maurie for some more Valerie's....!!!)

The papers are from my long stashed and only stroked but just had to be used for this one Carta Bella Merry and Bright 6x6 pad, the  little sentiment bit comes in it too, I loved the words so it just had to be used!! 

Last week was a bit pants :( we had to say goodbye to our gorgeous car (yes, it was old but had low mileage and I LOVED it) as I was involved in a small car crash and the insurers feel my car is a total loss :( they have picked it up to investigate but have already sent us a letter telling us they feel it is too much to repair :( 

I got a little knocked about and have had a really sore knee and neck but I am just very relieved that Mo was not in the car as I was just 1 minute away from his school when it happened. I hadn't really felt up to colouring until yesterday evening so I am pleased to be feeling a squidge more me now :)

Right, enough of my waffles!!Thank you for popping in
