Morning everyone!!

I felt like a bit of a Bewitching kinda card!!! he he he he!!!

You all know how I love love love my Tiddly Inks and I love halloween so when these fabulous Bo Bunny papers came I knew just what I wanted to do with them.

I also fancied another go at colouring on Kraft cardstock and a witch seemed a good thing to pop onto that so I used my memento tuxedo black to stamp her on and then got colouring!!! I added a few dots here and there of white gel pen around her just to ping her out a bit.

So when this post pops up in bloggy land I will still be at work so you can have a cuppa for me and I will pop in on you all when I wake up from sleeping this afternoon!! Scott is off for bank holiday monday so I should be able to have a super duper snooze today!!!

Huge hugs and thank you's for popping in on me!

Man's Best Friend!!

Stamp- Man's Best friend.

Papers- Nitwits Tailwags.

Aftrenoon Peeps!!

I bet yuo al thought I had gone awol?!!!!! I have been enjoying a few days tucked in a little family bubble at Scott's mum and dad's caravan and it has been wonderful. More wafflies about that after card wafflies!!! :)

So I just had to ink up and colour my LOTV Man's best friend stamp on Tuesday because I got my delivery of my Diamond White paper from The Papeterie. I treated myself to some of the 160gsm one so I can put it through my printer for digi's too. 

When we got home today I had chance to make it into a card in between 4 loads of washing!!! I kept it kinda simple because I feel like its a man card!!!!

Now this little card is going up for auction to raise some pennies for the Safe and Sound doggies that Poppy's friend Betty Bundle helps out, you can find this card here on ebay for you to bid on.

So...holiday piccy time!!!!

Yesterday we had my Grandad with us for his 81st birthday. (Please excuse the piccy being a bit blurry but we took it on my Ipad and had to be quick before he blew out the candles!! he he he he!!!) We went to the beach, sat and enjoyed some yummy fresh seafood, Mo tried his first cockles and ate almost everybodies he liked them so much!! we had some time in the arcades and then wombled along the beach some more!! we said goodbye to Grandad went our for a fish and chip  tea and all crashed by 8:30pm!!!

This morning we were all awake super early so we made a mad dash for the beach in the dark to watch the sunrise. I am not sure there is anything more magical...ever!! Mo was completely mesmerized at watching it! he just stood there!!  He's so cute!!

He had Poppy's ball in his hand and she waited ever so patiently for him to throw it whilst he was watching!! look at that droopy tongue!!!!! 

and here's a bucket head Poppy!! she's so daft!!! 

and this is me and my awesome hubster, Scott. Its so hard trying to get a piccy of ourselves together when there is only you guys on the beach!! I love this piccy though because it was actually quite dark but he had to use the flash and it looks so bright behind us!!!

so there we go!! I didn't want to bore ya'll with many more!!!! though we always end up having too much fun to remember to take piccies! daft lot!!!

Hope you are all having an awesome week! thank you for popping in on me!

Papers- Crate paper School spirit.

Morning Peeps!!

I am just home from work and writing up this post with a lovely cuppa!! It was a lovely busy night last night and I am happily sleepy!! he he he!! so I will get on with some waffling before i have a shower and go and have a good sleep!!

So its time for a fab new challenge over on the Tiddly Inks challenge blog and this week its a Back to school theme!! yey!! 

Now anyone who knows me will know my little Mo does not like school, its just not his thing :( and he gets very upset and tearful after the holidays so I always make him  a something special card for that first morning back and Scott and I write in it before we go to bed and pop it in his bedroom for him to find when he wakes up. He loves it and he LOVES Harry Potter ( I actually came home to him snuggled on the settee watching the the last film right now!!!!!)

So I merged up both versions of Wizard and a wizardette for a HP themed back to school card!! I coloured them up with my promarkers and then just had some fun with the papers on my card. I used the scraps to make a cute little bundle of banners in the top right!

Ok, thats enough wafflies! I need some breakfast and a good long sleep!!

Have an awesome day peeps! I will catch up with you all later! thankyou so much for popping in on me today xx

Papers-

Bildmalarna frosty christmas.

Bildmalarna Dreams Happy Day.

morning everyone!!

I hope you are all waking up to a gorgeously sunny monday like me, I love waking up to sunshine!

Today's share is a little TGF stamp.I absolutely love these Blush girls, they are so sweet. 

I coloured her up with my promarkers and then had a good search in the gorgeous 12x12 papers bundle that I bought last week from the shop. If you are like me and you love surprises this pack is just perfect for you! I ooohed and ahhhhhhhd for about 10 mins when it came!!! and luckily there were a couple of Bildmalarna papers in there that just looked as if they knew I was making this card!! they are stunning.

Its sooo easy to make a really cute card with the Dienamics Blueprints 3 set, this card was done in around 30 mins!! that little bow dies is too cute and fitted perfect on my scraps of card! love it!!!

So on saturday we had planned to go to Warwick Castle for the day but little Mo woke up with a runny icky sore tummy so we had to stay home. He was ok by around 4pm and had a play outside with his friends but I was still pleased we stayed home to let him relax it off because on Sunday we had the most awesome day at Warwick Castle. Oh boy we love it there! Top of mo's lists are always Harry Potter and Knights and castles so he had an amazing time! and to make it even better when we got there we found out another one of his big loves was there, Horrible Histories!! oh my, you have never seen a little man so excited!! and this little photo stop was one of his favourites!!.....

The funniest part of the day though had to be when I popped to the loo and came back to find out my little guy had slipped off the edge of the water fountain and fallen in!!!! he was drenched! I walked to them to find him stood on the wall, shorts drenched with his socks and trainers drying off and a sad little face! we soon had him giggling about it though!

Today its the boring stuff day! Scott is off for the week so the car is having its MOT today and Mo and I are going to veg out in the crafty garage.

So have an awesome day peeps! Thank you for popping in on me and my little waffles!

I used the gorgeous Dawny's candle tutorial for this one and kept to some soft tones again to colour her up. 

I popped some lace down at the bottom and then stamped the little heart and crossbones at attached it to the bow.

Well, I guess I had better go really. I have washing to do before the rain comes this afternoon and we are off out for a bike ride today so I had better get my naproxen taken now and hope dodgy leg and back hold out for me!!!!

Have an awesome day peeps, thank you for popping in on me

Saturated Canary challenge 50....Winged things!!

Stamp- Toby.

Afternoon Peeps!!! I'm back with another post today because its time for a new challenge overon the Saturated Canary challenge blog!! and this time its a super fun one, I LOVED this weeks challenge so I know you will!! The theme for Challenge 50 is..... 

"Winged Things"

so think an image with wings or

a winged embellishment like butterflies, bee's etc!!

Now for the details....

You must use either a:

Saturated Canary Digi, 

Saturated Canary rubber stamp, 

or Simply Sassy rubber stamp 

So for my make I just had to make my little Mo another holiday gift. I love love love making my little guy little surprise packages! and he LOVES Toby, like lots!!! 

So I decided to have my first go at an altered tin, now these are sooooooo much fun! you are going to want to buy a whole lot of tinned fruit and wash them out because I mean LOADS of fun!!!

I just had to cut my papers, ink up the edges and glue them onto the tin. I also put some inside the tin too but forgot to take a piccy of them before I stuffed it full of goodies for Mo!!! Then it was tine to splodge some colour on that awesome little stamp!

Toby is an absolute dream to colour and I went for one of my fav colour combo's again. Browns and blues are just magic for little guy projects!! and Mo absolutely loved the tin too, his little face this morning when I gave him it was just magical. I love that! 

So, don't forget to pop in on my awesome buddies to see what they made, its a swoonalicious post this week!!
