Hi everyone!! Its tuesday so I am busy multi tasking away with a double challenge post for 2 of my DT's!! I love beng able to combine 2 of my favs on a tuesday though! and lets be honest with gorgeous images and lush promarkers it makes it no chore!!
so....

its time for another fun challenge here on the Tiddly inks challenge blog. This time we are going all out for the colder weather so the next challenge is...

Frosty Feeling

Grab your favourite Tiddly Inks stamp or digital image and think along the lines of..

Snow, glitter, winter 

(**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**)

I needed to combine my Tiddly make with.... the challenge set for us by our gorgeous Lou over on the Passion for Promarkers challenge blog. She chose...

New Beginnings.

So think new baby, new job, new house etc!!

Please remember you can enter using any type of creation, it doesn’t have to be a card.  Don’t forget, as always, to be eligible for our prize draw you must use your Letraset products (i.e. promarkers, flex markers, aqua markers, tria markers, metallic markers or neon markers).

Our sponsor this week is DigiStamp Boutique and the lucky winner will receive a voucher to spend in their online store.

So I went new home!I have had a couple of friends move recently so this one will be pootling off to one of the soon! 

Now do you know what the best part of this make was?... I left my little make with stickles 'frost' drying on the table and Dasher..little ratbag...decided that licking off all the 'frsot' seemed like an excellent idea...so by the time I came down the stairs there was a rather guilty looking little prince on the table, with a little house on his tongue looking at me.....ot oh!!!

Luckily I was able to rescue it and pop some more stickles on it!!!! so funny!! 

Right, little man is requesting a hot chocolate so I am off to push the button on my tassimo machine!!

Huge hugs for you all

Morning all!!

Still have a little man down in the house but its ok because...wohooo! get me!! hubby's valentines card is in the bag!!! lol!! I had some extra time yesterday while the little guy was smooshed down on the settee with his dogs watching scooby so I had a little play with Coffee Run from Saturated Canary.

I love this image, she was just perfect for my hubby too because he loves coffee. We have had a tassimo machine ever since they first came out and he always gets the new model when its on offer! a little while before christmas he got the teeny new cute one for £30! bargain!! 

All she needed to be a super duper valentine was some gorgeous love themed papers and sentiment because she really does do all the work in that one lil image! love it!! I hot glued her on to keep her popped out because I have run out of the old faithful foam squares but to be honest the hot glue worked fabulously! I love a bit of pop!the centre of the heart and the sentiment have some pop too! I think he will love it.

Mo is a little better today. His temp is normal now and appetite is returning...made himself a salad a few mins ago but the stinky headache is still making him struggle some, medicine doesn't seem to touch it at all :( anywhoo, here is the salad he made himself! I caught him just wondering if he needed to add cheese sprinkles on the second one and his mouth looks all Elvis!!! (..please excuse my kitchen wall a la classy cardboard filling! we are part way through changing it round!!)

Thank you for popping in!

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

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
