Morning everyone!

I hope you all had wonderful weekends. Its my turn to post over on the DTDF inspiration blog today and I just had to get busy with some of the new Dienamics releases I treated myself to last week! ...well they were too cute to resist!!

I have to say that Dienamics Tag Builder Blue Prints 3, is going to be my favourite little die set for a while! its just wonderful and so much fun to play with! I love the little stitched heart that you can pop on after you have cut the heart out, its soooo sweet!! 

The stamp set comes cram packed full of super little sentiments for all occasions too! I loved the 'you're pawsitively awesome' one so that got splodged on!

Right, enough waffling on for you all me thinks!!

Afternoon everyone!

I have been fighting with the migraine from hell since last night, urgh, totally dislike these migraines, I am positive they are coming with age but urgh they are horrid. So to cheer myself up I have been busy pootling away making a quick little card.

Happy cards always lift my spirits and so far...until the pain killers wear out...it is doing the trick!!!! 

I have a growing little stash of Christy's stamps for stamping bella now! everytime I peek a little bargain one I treat myself to it!! ...obsessed by christy croll much me thinks!!! lol! but I just adore her style.

He was so perfect for a man card to add to the man card stash I just went with the flow!! lol!!

Right, off for a cuppa and a soak in the bath to relax my head and neck muscles and kick this evil migraine into the soil before work tonight! ...if not..will be even more strange than my normal self on the painkillers!! he he he!!

Image- Hush from Mo's Digital Pencil.

Papers- Affection and Affection too from Nitwits.

Dies- Magnolia Doo Hickey club 3.

Afternoon everyone!

its time for a new challenge over on the the DP2 challenge blog and this time its one of my absolute favs, picked by our fabulous Pat its a good old free reign on whatever you fancy with...

Anything Goes!!

So whilst drooling through my Mos Digital Pencil images folder for which one to use (...and printing out and colouring up 4...I am so not the only person who does that right?!!!) I went for the stunning little Hush.

Oh I do love this one so much. You can boy or girl baby it, I went for girl! and the edges on the images are done so that they are soooo soft and the effect once you colour it up is amazing! almost makes me look like I know how to colour!! he he he!!

All I needed then was some stunning papers to pop with her and a splodge of distressing and glue! I even squooshed in some of my fabby new dies from my Doo Hickey club 3! oooh I love it!!

Well, I had better pootle of the pooter and get myself ready to walk 2 gorgeous furry peeps before we pick up their brother from school. He is soooo tired this week. The first week back is always a bit of a sensory overload for him so I am looking forward to the weekend.

Huge hugs for you all

lol!! I know...I am shameless in my enabling but come on peeps! these are too cute to miss at a good price!! I won't tell y'all how much I spent incase Scott pops in on my blog!!! romfl!!!

Right, time for a cuppa and a little more making I think. Mo is sorting through his clothes to sell them at the place where they weigh your clothes and give you 50p a kilo ( yup, we are mean parents, this little guy has to make his own pennies if he wants them but I am sure it holds him in good stead for when he grows up to learn these things now.) He wants to buy some duck tape for model making so its all good really even if I seem a bit mean!

huge hugs for you all

Little Angel....

Image- Little Angel from Saturated Canary.

Morning everyone!!

Ok, I admit it, I know she is kinda a christmassy image but oh my is she just perfect for an uplifting card. I don't mind saying one little bit that I am still quite happy making christmas cards...which is rather funny as I totally missed out on sending them! so this one is a bit toned down and going out as a happy new year card for my Aunty Sally-Anne.

My Aunty is really rather special. In the last 2 years she has had cancer 3 times, yup, not once but 3 times in different places and she has fought it amazingly 3 times. She has picked up her life after her husband finally became honest enough to tell her there was someone else ( for 10 years...) but she didn't let that frighten her and has found the most amazing partner. She has raised 2 gorgeously wonderful children, who I am very proud to have as my cousins and I can honestly say she is more my best friend than my Aunty, I love her with all my heart. So you can never get all that love onto one card! and I would die trying!! so instead I am letting her know she is my angel. She has held me up high through so, so many bad times throughout my life. So to explain the bits I got onto it!! the heart filmy thing is a circle, eternally round and encircling the hearts within and the image is just gorgeous and of course, an angel. Soft colours and gentle papers.

There is a little heart quietly tucked behind the bow to show that love ties all together. It might look a boring and simple card but it is full of everything I needed to say to her in one look. I hope she gets that when she opens it.

Right got to go! woofers to walk and a little guy to soak up time with!

Afternoon peeps!!

How are you all? I hope you are all ready and fired up for the new year, I am going to wish you all an uber duber happy new year. We don't really bother with it all in our house but this year Mo asked what it was so we told him we will wake him up at 11:45pm to see the new year in...chances are he will just stay asleep and mumble something but we are still going try to get him up and have a little warm milk and chocklit snack with him to celebrate!!

I saw an image a few days ago that so reminded me of Mo Manning's Big Girl Pants image that I just had to print her out and have a play with her. I have a friend going through a really tough time at the minute so went for a good old 'cheer you up' and I'm thinking of you card. I absolutely adore how this turned out.

I hope it raises a smile when she gets it! its just such a lovely image for a cheer you up 'cos you're feeling pants card!!

Right, must dasheroo! I have a washing machine full of clean laundry to hang out on the airer...way too cold for outside drying here!! and another load to get in...which will mean a mountain of ironing for this afternoons job! I don't mind at all though, I love ironing!

Huge hugs and Happy new year!
