A wooferly friday!!!

Papers -T Dawg from Funky Hand.
Morning everyone!!

wohoooo for friday!! I have been looking forward to it all week!! a bit of time with Scott and then the weekend at 3:30pm for little Mo! I can't wait!

Its time for a fabby friday over on the Tiddly Inks challenge blog so I decided to go fabby and Funky all in one day and use some dog themed papers to go with my gorgeous little Silver dog.

I coloured him up all squiggly ( yup, literally all squiggly! get that fine nib on your pen and just doodle all over for fur, fun, quick and easy!!!) and then I fussy cut him and foam popped him up on the card base.

Its so easy to do when you have cute and adorable little guy just sitting on your paper!! and then those fabulous doggy themed papers to go with him! well, it was a win win situation really!!

Right, got to fly! there's friday fun to be had!!

Feathers.....

Image- Feathers.
(this was a special freebie, no longer available)

Morning everyone!

I thought I would pop in a lilttle post with my  'Feathers' card today. I am having big internet problems at the moment and can't upload anything so have done a copy and paste job to get this cutie shared with you today!! lol!!! well, there had to be a cheat way round for me to blog...I am getting withdrawal symptoms!!!

I went all rainbow and happy for this one, I love how her feathers came out and how she pops out from the papers. There is a good old sprinkling of frantage around her too but its tricky to see! and I love that little inkadinkado sentiment, its just perfect.

Right, I am off to pop some sweet potato and parsnip chips in the oven for my lunch, we got our first frost here this morning and I am in the mood for a comfort kinda dinner!!!

Hello, how are you doing?

Papers- Keep In Touch from Funky Hand.

Morning everyone!!

Did you all see the new Keep In Touch download?!! I just LOVE it! and I love texted papers, they are just so much fun so I had to put this one to use. Its just perfect for making a zingy and cheerful card just to say Hi to a friend.

I got my trusty Die-Namics smart phone die out to make a little phone to go with this awesome speech bubble sentiment! with a little bit of foam pad help they all popped out for a good old bit of dimension!!

Just a little reminder of all those lusheroo papers in the download....
Keep In Touch backing papers
If they don't zing up someones day when they receive a make from you with them I would be surprised!!

Right, got to go. I have a huge pile of ironing with my name snuggled into it! and little pawsy peeps to walk in the wind and rain! then its a bit of good old vegging out!

Thank you for peeking in!

Morning Peeps!!!

Its the time of month again for our 'Forgotten Funkies showcase over on the Get Funky and Craft inspiration blog!!! and each month our fabulous Funkettes will be here on our blog showing off some new makes with our older downloads. 



Today's showcase is centred all around the gorgeously funky and fabulous 'Funky Daze' cd. Just look at this craft backing paper collection packed with ghosts, bats and 'things that go bump in the night!' Full of eye catching bright green, purple, orange, black, white and a word book options to go with them all included. So they are most definitely too good to be forgotten!!!

Funky Daze
I decided to go for a colourway with a bit of poperoo!!! so I chose the 'sunday best' papers and printed out a few of my favs! then with the help of Lori Whitlocks gorgeous hot air balloon card file I got busy!

I love that pop of colour with the dimension of the balloon! it really pops out at you! all I did then was add a few little die cut clouds here and there so it looks like its off in the sky! 

Right, must dash! 4 more lil pumpkins to carve and a garden to decorate all spooky!!! here is last nights pumpkin effort too.....

Halloween cuteness for 2 challenges.......

Promarkers...
Ginger and Spice
Warm Grey 1-5
Burnt Sienna, Caramel and Sandstone
Olive Green and Pear Green
Morning everyone!!

I am doing 2 blog posts in one today with my DT makes for Tiddly Inks challenge and the Passion for Promarkers challenge!! what a cheat I know but I think one bloggy post from a waffle pants Lou in one day is enough for anyone to bear!! 

so the Tiddly Inks challenge is...

Black Cats
so please use a black color combination or include black cats!!
Grab your favorite Tiddly Inks Fairy stamp or digital image and get your 
coloring hats black!!

(**remember...We love to see any new creation, a card, 3D project, journal page etc 

but you must use a Tiddly Inks stamp or image to be eligible for the prize**)

and the Passion for Promarkers challenge, picked by our gorgeous Eileen, is...

Add Some Sparkle
so think sparkly paper, gems, glitter etc
(As always to be eligible for our prize draw you must use your
 Letraset products (promarkers, flex markers, tria markers, aqua markers or metallic markers) 
and of course follow the theme.)
So I went for uber cuteness and used one of the new images from Christy Croll over at Tiddly Inks, the little kitty from the couple of fall cuties image was just perfect for my Balck cat part of my Tiddly Inks challenge.

Then I found an uber awesome shadow box in the silhouette store! I LOVE it!! ( linky above under the piccy) and once I had made it (..there were lots of eeps..y'all know how much I love halloween!!!) I gave it a good old spray with some crafters companion glitter spray.

Right, I've waffled enough for one morning! we are just being a little lazy this morning, I have a couple of bits to cut on my silhouette and Mo is sat watching Shrek the musical and then we are going to take a walk with the dog.

Thank you for popping in
huge hugs for you all

Deck the halls Tobie....


Morning everyone!

Monday has rolled around quickly again and it's me in the blog posty day hotseat over on the DTDF inspiration blog today!!!

I am not afraid to say that I absolutely adore christmas and I am loving getting on with some christmas card makes for friends and family.

I broke out this because SOG Deck The Halls Tobie  its just gorgeous!!! and I had a delicious stroke only page of my Pion Designs play time paper left that was just perfect for being a good old chimney stack for this shadow box card. I love making these too! a good old bit of dimension is always fun to play with.

I made a little row of stockings to hang down inside and finished each end with the bell stamp, popping them all out on foam for some umpf!!

Typically Little Mo has already feasted his eyes upon this make and informed me that its his...!! lol!!! he is getting a good little stock pile of mummy's makes now!! funny little man!! maybe he should open a little shop!!!

I will still be at work when this posts and then zonking straight off to sleep when I get home. Half term bliss and Daddy day for Mo means I can slink straight under those duvet covers as soon as I get in!! heaven!!!!!

Thank you for popping in

Stamp- Fairy Kiki by Mo Manning.
I'm back!! 
Its time for the Elegant Artisans to get their craft on over on the Creative Romance challenge blog!!

our theme this time is Pink, that is we want to see Pink on your creation. You can colour Pink, or use Pink design papers and embellies! the choice is yours.

For this challenge we are sponsored by Live and Love Crafts. 

Now..don't laugh...but for some reason the word pink on this one had me in a spin!! I just could not get going ...until I peeked through my stamp draw and found Fairy Kiki!! then it was easy!! isn't it funny how you sometimes juts need the right stamp to get going?!!!

Then it was just a case of adding some magical floof and the job was done!!

Right, got to dash! need some food shopping...my cupboards resemble old mother hubbards..... and we have to be home for 1pm for the genetics lady to ring so its going to be a rush...I want to try and squeeze in a sneaky visit to the range for some black card!! lol!!!!
