Non Traditional Halloween Colours!!

I stamped her out a couple of times, one on my colouring card and one on my stroke only MME pad!! lol!!! then it was just a case of colour and stick, I love doing that! she has a few hints of blingyness but other than that its a really simple and fun card to do.

Winter Wishes...........

Image- Winter Wishes from Tiddly Inks.

Morning everyone!!

Sorry I am a squidge late popping in with my Tiddly Fab Friday make but we have a poorly little Mo today. He has a sore throat and sore ears and little rosy cheeks along with a temp so we are keeping him home for a rest today. He is not overly impressed with us as its golden time at school today and he wanted to take his panda teddy to play zoo's but hopefully the fact that Grandad is coming for the day will cheer him up some.

My make today is using the stunning new Winter Wishes from Tiddly Inks. I absolutely adore her, we saw a polar bear at the zoo last week, the first time I have ever seen one IRL, so that made it even more special.

I kept the layout really simple and just added a few die cuts and the sentiment from the  Willow Christmas Fairy clear stamp set.  Then it was time to splodge a lil bell and button and a lil heart to the mix too!! I can't resist christmassy cards this week!! I love it!!! There are only 18 fridays left until christmas!!! wohoooooo!!!

Right, off to get Mo and avacado for brekkie, nice and smooth and no ouchies!!

Thank you for popping in on me!

Arctic Friends.....

Image- Arctic Friends from Saturated Canary.

Hi everyone!!!

I hope you've all had fabby days, I've had a busy one!! I've been sorting out a few bits in the kitchen and having a good old autumn chuck out!! 3 bags of " I'm not sure why I bought this" later and I have got some kitchen side left after the throwing out of the actual kitchen cupboards last weekend!! 

..so you can see why I needed a good old crafty afternoon (...well...1 hour anyway but I still enjoyed it fully!!!).

I coloured up the gorgeous new Arctic Friends from Krista. It is the most awesome image to play with. It was a full on stickles snow kinda thing too and they took aaaaaaages to dry! thats how I know the colder times are on their way! my stickles takes forever to dry!! lol! it left me wishing I had stickled after I placed her on the card!!!

I distressed and tore and embellied and just had the best time!

I have an inkling that little Mo is not feeling too great tonight :( he had fun playing outside when we got home for 15 minutes and then he came in saying he didn't feel so good :( he's a bit of a funny colour and has a sore throat so we are snuggled up watching the Harry Hill Movie! its funny so its cheering him up some!! hopefully he will feel a bit better after a good sleep. 

Thank you for popping in on me

Waiting on baby Brennan.........


Morning peeps!!!

We are here to celebrate a super happy occasion! Our friend and Tiddly Inker, Melissa, is expecting a baby boy Brennan any day now, so we wanted to share her joy!

So, to try and contain some of our excitement and stop us asking Melissa every 5 minutes if he is here yet we decided to make a card just to celebrate the Andrew family and welcome Brennan and have a little blog hop. We have a linky up there for you to play along too and a random winner will be chosen from the entries!!

Here is the hop list, the girls have all made the most beautiful cards, you won't want to miss any of them so please click on each name to be magically pinged to their blogs!

TABBATHA of ZadisProject.

I just had to go with one of my first ever Tiddly Inks buys!! Sleep Tight Baby. I have adored this digi since I first started out on my tiddly journey a few years ago. All I needed to do then was add some 'Lou Froo' to the card!! this is a lovely 7.5x7.5" card so plenty of space to play around with and make a bit special like our Melissa is to us.

Thank you for hopping in,

Good friends never go out of style....


Morning everyone!

I am loving making little tags at the minute using my Die Namics Blueprints 9 set. Its just perfect for adding a normal sized stamped image too with room left to play!!

I went for a fairly quiet 2 colour combo for this one with a little  brown inked edge to match her brown hair using my Tim Holtz Frayed Burlap distress inks.

When I stamped my sentiment I added one of the extra little hats to the tippy top of the d on good and f in friends, I love it! it looks so cute!!

I hope you like it!!

I had a wedding card to make for 2 special ladies who are getting married. I love weddings, weddings and new babies are my favourite cards to make and I LOVED making this one. Kody and Mae were just perfect because they look exactly like the 2 brides! (..though they are not cartoony they are just like these 2 cuties!!) so Kody was changed into a girl for this one and merged with Mae.
Then it was time to add some floof Lou style!!!

Right, time to get myself into gear! there is a cup of tea with my name on and I rather need it since we got up at 4:25am...sigh!! lol!!

Krafty Monkey....


Hi everyone!! Happy Monday!!! its my turn to post over on the Dies to Die For inspiration blog today.

I just had to schnaffle up CC Designs Latte Monkeyin the sale! at £3 he was an uber cute bargain and couldn't be missed!! he he he!!! and he was just perfect for a bit of Kraft and MME paper piecing fun!!! I stamped away with my memento Tuxedo black like a little production line of monkey cuteness!!

And to compliment the cuteness, I needed to break out my Die Namics Tag Builder 1. Its seriously soooo much fun! I made 3 different combos before finding the one perfect for this little guy and they were all equally gorgeous!!! I really love the little 4U.
