I have had a bit of a lovely morning of froo froo-ness!! am I the only one that really loves froo froo on baby cards?!! awww I just love them!! and I definitely went the froo froo-ist  have froo'd in a while on this one!!!!

This card is for my friends who have just had 2 gorgeous little twin girls (...can you tell I am just a bit excited?!!!!) so I hit the shop at Mo's Digital Pencil and bought me some gorgeousness to make their card. Mo's shop is just perfect for cards like this and even better I found an image in there too that I just totally squeeled at because it was just like their dog and daughter Khloe!!!

Same old Lou colours used but they do look so soft and pretty together so I think that's why they are my fav colour combo's. Here's a little half blingy shot of the babies....
 Now, I bet ya'll looked at my links under the first piccy and thought where the banana's did she use the Tia digi?!!! well, she is here....except Tia has had a little change to Tyson for this one to match Vicky and Chris's dog Tyson and the little girl with the heart balloons was just so like Khloe I had to get it!! please excuse the chubby Lou fingers on this piccy!!!...
 so cute!! I love it!!!

Then came the froo froo and lots of it!! dies, punches, flowers, 3 different sorts of glue, lace, ribbon, button,twine!! oh my gosh I had soooo much fun!! I will leave you with one last shot of gorgeousness!!!...

Make it digital!!
( use digital images/papers)
we are sponsored by

I just had to use the new Rock n Rolla digi from Tiddly Inks, at just $1 she is one you totally can't miss out on!! and she totally makes me think of my friend Amelia, who loves skating and has the coolest pink hair. She has been going through some horrid stuff with head pain and she inspires me totally. When my knee is sorted I am going to get my skates out of the shed!!!

So I printed her out, coloured her with my promarkers and then added some super fun papers. 

Right, got to get myself moving! Mo slept in until 6am this morning so I am on a go slow!! lol!!

Hi everyone!!
I am a bit late posting today because we woke up to gorgeous sunshine and decided to make the most of it with Poppy and my friends dog, Tyson. My friend Vicky is in hospital at the moment (....squeeeee!! twins coming soon!! squeeeee!!!) so we decided Tyson might like some treat time with his budette furball princess!
We had a wonderful time, they played, rested,played some more and then finished off with a lovely clam lead walk back so they were ready for chilling when we got home! Here they are looking all cheesy wheezy together!!!
and off for a good sniff around...
Anyways!! onto Ellie!! isn't she just a super cutie?!! I loved making this card (...wait....yup...I do say that like all the time but I am super lucky and love making all my cards!!!!)
She is so wonderful to colour up and the papers are from one of my fav pads ever, very stroke only, use only if you really really have to, The Pier by Crate paper.

Right, off to veg on the settee with my guys now!! Poppy is fast asleep on her bed in the kitchen after her adventures!!!

coloured with Promarkers.

Good morning peeps!!
How are you all this fine friday?!! I totally adore friday's because Scott is off on a friday and its even better today because its half term so we are all together. We are going to take a lovely walk with the dog before heading out for the day.

So how cute is Skater Girl Wryn?!! oh my gosh too cute right?!!!!!! I absolutely love her!! and I had to have another go at these awesome pop up box cards. They are just my cup of tea, layers and dimension always makes for a totally fun and cute card.

I popped the tutorial up there with the links but I fiddled with it a bit for this one because I wanted a square box, so this one the little layers are 3x3 with a finished size of 6x6. I have made 3 of these uber fab boxes now!!

I added some die cuts and little punched flowers and edge punched the edges of the box too.

Here's a little closer shot of her in her scene!! I am going to pop her over on the  Layers challenge on the Papertake weekly blog as this is such a fun way to add layers to your crafty makes!

Right, time for me to get a cuppa and have a little blogster womble!!

Hope your day is just 'Beachy' !!!


Image- Swimmer.
Papers- Crate Paper 'The Pier'.
Coloured with Promarkers.

Morning peeps of the world!!

So have you all woken up to a tremendous thursday?! I know we have!! we had oodles of mummy and Mo time yesterday which I just adore. I super love the school holidays for that and now Mo no longer worries about going back to school the holidays are just bliss. We enjoyed a wonderful walk in the sunshine with Poppy and Mo even took some time to sit and finish all his homework while I sat by him drinking tea and having a good old colour.

My card reflects my mood from super happy times. I am so lucky to have a tonne of sunshine in my life! Seriously, Swimmer is just to uber cute!!!! 

Here is the 'bit flashed out but hey the bling on the sunglasses shows' shot!!! romfl!!! they were just too cute not to get a closer peek on!! he he he he!!
I am popping her over in the Lovely Layers challenge over on the Papertake Weekly blog. ya'll know I love my layers!!!
and I can't resist a little piccy of my little guy and the Furball Princess for you all...
He always puts her lead around him like a belt (we have a double ended lead that attaches in 2 places on her harness) so that he knows she is safe and can't pull the lead out of his hand with any sudden movements. I LOVE how sensible he is like that. He has a seriously major bond with her, he doesn't really do people but the dog, oh my, he would do anything for her!! and I totally love how loose her lead always is when she is walking, see that lovely hanging bit with the bend in? she is just such a gentle girl. I love that she kept looking up to him and he kept smiling at her but could I get a good picture of that??!!!....errrr...Nope!! Anywhoo, I loved this piccy so had to share it!!

Right, got to go! cuppa's to be made and snuggling to be done!!
Huge hugs for you all, thank you for popping in on me
