I'm in with a SOG make for you today and its a golden oldie but oh so cutie!!!! (...and it's a total bargain price in the shop at £6 too!!!).

Warmest Wishes....

Image- Warmest Wishes.

Morning all!

I'm in for you today with my make using Warmest Wishes. I am a sucker for an image like this, just makes me feel all warm and squishy inside!!!

I decided to go a little neutral with the theme on this one just incase I need it for a birthday so inside I used the 'sending warmest wishes' sentiment that comes with this cute lil gang.

Right, I need to go get a cuppa. Scott and I have got some bits to sort at school for Little Mo this morning and my tummy feels a little bit butterfly-ish. We don't know this school and its teaching team as well as Mo's amazing primary school team and knowing where to start is always a little worrying for a wuss like me!! 

Huge hugs and love

TGF Holiday Anya 5...........

Stamp- TGF Holiday Anya 5.

Papers- Basic Grey Aspen Frost.

Dies- Lawn Fawn Mini Snowflakes.

 Blueprints 1.

TGF Holiday Anya 5 die.

Morning all!!

It's a bit frosty out there today so I have taken a little time to warm up from walking Tys to finish off  my little coloured TGF Holiday Anya 5 into a 'something'!!!! she is just so sweet it was really easy to have some festive fun with her.

I have to admit to having a 'get the die to cut them out' addiction recently but it is just so nice to get that perfect little white edge around the stamp and so much fun to watch it come to life like that with a little foam to pop her out underneath.

I am being fuelled by espresso today after a night of uber broken sleep with Little Mo who has a cough that is so much worse at night, poor dude. Scott and I split ourselves into shifts last night as Mo just wanted to be cuddled ( he doesn't like it when he can't catch his breath properly). We applied vickes vapour rub to his feet and back and forhead and took it in turns to be ships passing so we could both get at least a little sleep. Scott is probably falling asleep as his desk at work as I type!!! I am so lucky to have him as my tag team buddy through the night.

Right, time for me to grab another coffee and walk my dogs now!!!

Thank you for popping in

It's time for another fun challenge here on the Tiddly Inks Challenge Blog and winter is well and truly here!! Let's enjoy those icicles and Jack Froste'd mornings!! the Tiddly Inkers want you to get that.....

Frosty Feeling!!

 So think luscious ice, snow, wintery images, Icy cold colour themes 

such a blue and silver....

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

So I couldn't resist the stunning new Oh Deer Molly . She actually made me squuueeeee when Christy released the new Molly's!! I absolutely adore her. A little bit of Lou splodging on pens and she was done.

Then it was time to play with some scrummy Basic Grey Aspen papers and and few Lawn Fawn snowflakes and she was magically pinged into a frosty fun little world!! ooooh she's just sooo cute!!

Have a wonderful day everyone. I have a very sore eye so I will be spending my day bathing it and trying to feel a bit more me than I feel right now!

Precious..........

Hi everyone!

I'm in for you today with a card I have been soooo behind in making!! Its my gorgeous little niece Arabella's new baby card that I just haven't gotten round to making until now. She arrived in august and I just had to wait for the right image to come along and this cutie was it! I just absolutely loved it.

So on saturday night I managed to get a little colouring done and on sunday whilst the boys of the house had some geocaching fun I made my card.

Right, must scoot. My aunty is going to drop the ever so gorgeous Jack off with me and the hounds for a play today while she takes my Grandad for his appointment in Liecester. He is going to the same hospital baby Theo is at so I am more than confident they will be amazing and hopefully we will get a date for his TAVI op.

Thank you for popping in

The one where Monica gets a turkey stuck on her head....

 Image- Wryn Happy Thoughts.

Papers- Studio Calico South of Market.

Dies- Memory Box grapevine wreath.

Die Namics surf and turf.

Mechanism- MFT slide and spin discs.

Turkey drawn by me!!! lol!!!

Hi everyone!! 

I am hoping you are all as friends obsessed as I am so you 'get' this card!! One of my BF's asked if I could make a card for one of her friend's for thanksgiving and of course I jumped at the chance! (..you know me! any chance to make a card is a a blessing.) and we were chatting about the Friends episode with the turkey and I wrote to my friend 'I so wish I had an image with a turkey on the head'...........and then the Lou cogs slowly started whirring into gear!!

I didn't have a turkey but I had cute image and mechanism sorted so I had to hand draw a turkey (..yeah, I know peeps, I can't draw for stuffin' but it was good fun to try!!!) and then it was just a case of putting the Lou mind into action so the turkey could do this....

Bwah ha ha ha ha ha!! I LOVE IT!!!!! yup! there is my monica with the turkey on her head!!!! but seriously!! soooo much fun!! everyone needs a make like this in their life!! he he!!

Then I added a nice little wreath with a hanging heart attached to finish it off.

Well, thats the musings of a Lou's mind for today!! I am off to catch some zzzzzzz's now if I can. We are still having a very worrying time in my group of BF's. We are so blessed to live so close together because we are so missing one of us and one of our mini peeps and we are so worried for Theo that our hearts hurt all the time we are awake. 

If you have some space in your prayers please keep Charlotte, Damion, Oscar and baby Theo and all of their family in your prayers and let's see if we can't all work together in our thoughts to get Theo healed. Thank you in advance if you have space to keep us snuggly.

Huge hugs and Love Lou xxxx

I even love the box...

Image- I even love the box.

Hi everyone!

Lou in with a make for you today and it just had to be another 1st christmas card for my other BF!! yup! I am a lucky girl because my BF's think of my ovaries and have their babies at the same time to stop my pangs of ever needing another!! he he!!!! 2 years ago my other BF had twins so I am kept at bay!! my girls know how to keep me good!! he he!!!

Theo has been seriously poorly this last week so to keep myself positive yesterday I got to work on his first christmas card.

I even love the box is just so spot on for a first christmas because at 6 months the box is often the best bit to these small peeps we bring into the world! e spend all that time worrying what to get them to make it special and they promptly throw the toy out and enjoy the wrapping!! he he!!!

Thank you for popping in
