On cloud 9.....

Morning Peeps!!
Well its friday and that is of course fabulous!!! :) so I am sharing a little bit of Tiddly Inking with you this morning!
This is the super cute new little Wryn that Christy released on monday,Wryn on cloud 9 , she is just so sweet.

I was in an autumny mood so I coloured her up in some yummy oranges and used the crab apple too papers from nitwits as they have this lovely kinda sepia toning to them which is just so pretty. The little flower is made with my Die-namics layered rose die and I followed the sketch from the MFT challenge...

and I am popping her over in the Autumn colours challenge over on the Allsorts challenge blog.

Right hi ho hi ho its off to work I go...and little Mo and Poppy get a daddy day because school is out today! Mo is so happy this morning as he was more than ready for a break. He and Scott have had rotten coughs and colds so I am guessing there will be a day of playing skylanders and vegging out for them while I am at work!!

Have a fabulous friday peeps!!

Saturated Canary challenge 29- Shaped Cards..



Afternoon Peeps!!
I hope you are all having an awesome day. Its time for a new challenge over on the Saturated canary challenge blog and this time its a super fun challenge of ......

shaped cards.

So in a nutshell I had soooooooo much fun playing with the shape of my card!!! I just couldn't resist another spooky make so of course it was zombie time!!

I printed out and coloured in Roller Skating Zombie and then cut her out. Then I cut out 3 gravestones from my paper dolls cricut cart and spookied them up with some silver ink and white gel pen.

To hold the scene of gravestones together I cut a strip of black card at 2.5" x 8.5" and then folded it into 3. I arranged the gravestones and then cut around the edges of them. To hold it closed the medium gravestones slips behind the smallest ones.

Here's another piccy with it a little open.....


I added some spookable foggy/cobwebby yumminess and a big juicy spider to finish the scene off. Here's a little inside view of it open...


He, he, he, he!!! too much fun!! Now I have to tell you my little canary teamies totally rocked this challenge so don't forget to pop in on their stunning creations....I had to giggle a bit when I added mine to our post as there were all these stunningly beautiful cards and then along came Lou's zombie.....romfl!!!

I am popping this in the challenge over on Charisma cards which is don't be square.

So pop in and see what my awesome canary teamies have been making and join in with the fun but.....

You must use either a:
Saturated Canary Digi, 
Saturated Canary rubber stamp, 
or Simply Sassy rubber stamp 
and follow the theme of the challenge.

Its a work day for me today so I will see you all for a bloggy womble when I have had my tea and a good deep bath tonight but for now I will leave you with a piccy of the furball princess in my craft room yesterday...
Awwwwww!!!....this crafting stuff is just way too exhausting for a furball princess!!

She is such a cutie! she has taken to begging me to pop her in Mo's chair next to me( she's not tall enough to get up there on her own yet!!) when I am crafting and then just fall asleep but I had to giggle at her yesterday because she tucked her little head right in between her paws and snuggled right down into the chair!! 

Have an awesome day peeps! thank you so much for popping in on me

Fairytale notes....




Morning Peeps!!

How are you all today? I am fabulous!! Romfl!!! Scott did some puppy playing with the furball princess and small prince this morning so I could get a little making time in!!

I have been rushed off my feet entertaining and snuggling my little furball Poppy because she is just so delicious I can’t resist but I was majorly missing crafty time too so needed a little balance this morning!! He he he!!

And anyways Krista drew this gorgeous fairytale girly and I could not resist printing her out straight away and doing some colouring. She is a freebie until Wednesday when Krista will be popping her in the Saturated Canary store and I just adore her.

I printed 4 out and used the same little pile o pens to colour them all in. I love doing this occasionally because it challenges me a bit to use the same colours differently on a project and I love seeing how different they all turn out. I had fun playing with those gorgeous tassels on her top/ skirt colouring them in differently to get a different take on them. 
little pile o pens.....

I chose to use my mono one for this mornings crafty playtime and alter a little notebook.

The notebooks were 4 for £1 from the range a few months ago and they have just kinda sat on my shelf waiting for a bit of love (….ok..so that a small fib…they have been sat on my craft desk but its such a mess I didn’t find them until yesterday when I was having a small need a little space to craft tidy up…….:)

Anywho's, I cut her with a deckled edge nestie and then backed her onto some black card, then a bit of super yummy Salt And Pepper Funky Hand download paper later she was a gorgeous altered notebook!!

I also used Die-namics Mini Royal Roses and my Lord Tim Chip Block die, a Cheery Lynn exotic butterfly and a really good spray of crafters companion glitter spray. I love this stuff, she looks so sparkly and magical.Here's a more sparkly piccy....

 The black lace down the edge was a total bargain too, Scott bought me it from Boyes last monday, it was in the bargain basket and cost just 40p for a huge bundle.

Well, that's me for today!! Little Mo has a swimming lesson this morning and Poppy has some serious menacing to do.......he he he he!!! gotta love a puppy!!!

Have an awesome sunday everyone, thank you for popping in on me!

Ahoy there Tilda and a bookmark.....

 Morning Peeps!!

Well are you ready for some giggling? This little Tilda card is the card I made last night to share with everyone over on the Dies to Die for blog. I happily sat there making away and thoroughly enjoyed my little hour of crafting,its quite amazing how much of my time has been zapped up by the furball princess and obviously it is effecting my dopey little brain too because.......then realised I couldn't find the stamps in the shop....romfl!!! 
so I had to have another make for the blog and share Tilda over here on my blog!!!

And here's the bookmark too....

I have been having a little play with the Die-namics  bookmark stamp and die set and ooooh I am loving it!! this is the first make I have done so far but I can see a whole lot more coming this afternoon.

I cut the bookmark and then added the circle stamp and the book stamp to the top. I sewed a little MME merry and bright twine through the little book and glued it down to make its own mini bookmark.

I had a little scrap of MME Summer Splash paper that I stuck onto the bottom of the bookmark and then I stamped this gorgeous sentiment onto a bit of the kraft card and added a little twine under that too.

I stamped with black onyx versafine ink, I love how yummy and crisp it is on sentiments.

Sorry for the ever so pants picture but the light here this morning is terrible!! 

Did anyone else watch the space jump last night? we did!! we watched it live on youtube! it was absolutely amazing! Scott, Mo, Ryan and Ryan's friend Charlie all huddled around my laptop at the kitchen table and watched the last hour of the ascent and the jump. Mo was absolutely glued to it and to see him so excited and clapping with such excitement when the man landed his parachute was just such a joy. It was a late night for Mo but so worth it.
Thank you for popping in on me this morning

Lift like a girl....


Afternoon Peeps!!
How are you all this fine sunday afternoon? I am good. I have had a wonderful day so far . Mo had his swimming lesson and then we went to my mums to help dad put a shed up in the garden. we had yummy bacon,egg and mushroom baps for lunch and I even got a squidge of crafting done when we got home, happy days :) :)

So I just had to play with Krista's new image Lift like a girl. I decided to make a little diet pack! I made a cute little front and then inside I made a little pocket for popping your fav diet recipe's or exercise idea's and then I made a few little cards to record any weight/inch losses and thoughts for that week. I think its kinda cute!! she is coloured up with promarkers.
I made the sentiment in word and then just punched it out.

 The cards are held in front of the pocket with 2 little card candies on foam dots.

So thats me for today. The chicken is roasting in the oven and Mo is playing with one of his little buddies upstairs so I am going to have a cuppa and a quick bloggy womble!!

thank you for popping in on me

oooooh I love these spooky autumnal colours, they are just divine.

I used the little trio of Witchkeys on my card today. I printed them out onto a large luggage tag and left them uncoloured.I tied a bit of thread around the end of the tag, added some spider web and a spider and then roughed up the edges with some distress inks.
Then using I embossed a spooky house and distressed strips onto some c'oredinations card and gave them a good rub to get the core colour to pop through in places. I distressed all the edges and added a yummy bit of spider web and a plastic spider to it!!

The little stamps on the tag are from the  CC Designs Halloween Logos set and the corners are Cherry Lynn Lace Deco B  .

I am popping this in the MAWTT challenge blogs Tag It challenge.

So pop in and see what my awesome canary teamies have been making and join in with the fun but.....

You must use either a:
Saturated Canary Digi
Saturated Canary rubber stamp, 
or Simply Sassy rubber stamp 
and follow the theme of the challenge.
