Desert Dweller.......

Image- Desert Dweller.
Hi everyone!

Oh my, I almost forgot to post this today because I have not been very well, silly Lou!!!

This is of course the gorgeous new Desert Dweller but she reminded me so much of Amelia Earhart or Katherine from The English Patient movie, that I just had to do a travelling type make!!!

Thank you for popping in
Huge hugs Lou xxx

'ellie' loves 'phant' stuffies..........


Morning everyone! Lou in with a post for you today using one of the super cute Stamping Bella stuffies

They are just adorable! I popped that yummy Dienamics stitched cover up companion horizontal frame upon some foam so I could recess the delicious  Echo Park Head over Heels papers into the cut out pieces, and then popped out my little ellie's on some foam on top of that so its a little cute card full of dimension IRL.

Thank you for popping in

Oooooh fun!!! I just had to go with Batty. Christy's gothic girls are what pulled me into the shop like a big old crafty magnet all those years ago and the remain as magical as they were then today.

This, of course, is Scott's valentines card. Some delicious papers and floofy bits and kapowo!! she was done!!!! I love it!! I am never afraid to say I love something I make. Thats the best fun of all isn't it? just enjoying yourself.

Right, must dash. Its the little guys first day back to school after the christmas break and I need to dig out uniform from the depths of his wardrobe!!! We have had the best time over the holidays and I don't mind admitting I am dreading the quiet today even though I am sick!!

Morning everyone!

I hope you are all starting off a wonderful weekend. I am a bit excited today because it is the start of something new and exciting for Mo's Dream Team! 

We are colouring up and making some magic with Maurie's Penny Black rubber stamps. There are so many in rubber for those who love stamping that its an absolute dream to play with them.

For my first stamp it saturday post I chose With Journal Penny Black 40-127. I thought she would be just perfect for a desk calendar. I love starting the year off by making a few of these.

Ready, set, snow....

Papers- Bo Bunny Mistletoe.
Morning all!!

well, I am not ashamed to admit I am still enjoying pootling along with some wintery makes....and....if I am totally honest...jealous that my makes have snow and we don't where I live!!!

I really enjoyed playing with this gorgeous little set! you can just do your own thing with the huge range of stamps in the set!! so cute!!

I die cut the globe on a separate bit of paper and popped it out form the card base, oh my, it looks soooo cute!!!!!!

Today we are off out for a little drive to get some hamster bedding floof and just shake off that cabin fever feeling! we managed a bit of a play outside yesterday but it is sooooo windy here. Luckily no rain or terrible flooding as we have seen from other areas in the UK. Our thoughts have been so fixed on all of those affected over this christmas period. We have been watching the news in disbelief :(

Right, woofer walk and then out!!

Thank you for popping in, huge hugs Lou xx

Papers-Pebbles Happy Day 6x6 pad.

Morning everyone! Lou in with a share for you today and I am very excited to be giving a sneak peek of the stunning new 'On a Snowball' image coming soon to the Mo's Digital Pencil store! I bet y'all can't wait for this one!! she is too cute!! 

And as an uber bonus she is fab for a whole tonne of occassions! I went for a good old Hi kinda card...which I will need because I totally forgot to post out most of my christmas cards with Mo being poorly for a few days. He is tonnes better now and having a good nibble at foods that he fancies so thats lovely.

It felt so good to have a bit of a colour up after a few days of immersing myself in family time. We have had such a lovely relaxed christmas, playing with Mo's new top trump cards...Plop trumps! so funny! all about animal poop!!!!

Right, enough Lou waffling!! have a great day everyone!

Christmas Fairy Holly......

Rubber stamp version- Fairy Holly.
Papers Kaisercraft Twig and Berry.

Morning all.

I have a make for you all today using the gorgeous Holly. I used the Penny Black rubber version for this make but luckily she is available in my favourite - digital version too.

I chopped her feet off to fit her on this gorgeous tag die cut.I adore making these tags. I make them a little easel stand on the back by cutting 2 DieNamics rustic hearts die cuts ( the long and skinny heart) and then fold them in half. Glue along one half and stick in to the other half of the 2nd heart, then unfold them to make the easel stand. 

These tag cards look so divine on the mantel or windowsill.

I used my yummy new spectrum noir clear sparkle pen to get that gorgeous blingyness on her dress. They are such lovely sparkle pens.She is popped out on foam but its a bit tricky to see from the photo.

The sentiment die cuts came in my Kaisercraft Twig and Berry paper pad. Its an old one from 2012 release but the papers are so pretty I can't help but use them.

I'll be home from work in an hour ( scheduled posting is my friend this week!!!). A quick nap before Scott leaves for work and then its me and little Mo time. I adore the holidays so much, time with my little guy is always the best days.

Hugs Lou xx
