Morning everyone!!!

I hope you are all waking up to fabbalicious fridays! I am!! I have a little teeny bit of tiling to do in Little Mo's bathroom and then I can paint it so it should be finished this weekend!! wohoooo! it's looking so lovely.

Yesterday I got my MISTI and I had t give it a whirl!!! and after waffling with my budette AlyceI just had to get my new Gorjuss stamp out of it's box and ink it up!!! Now..I have to be honest because you all know how I craft..I am a splodger...so I popped her on my MISTI and splodged some ink on then excitedly pressed her onto my paper, lifted it up and oh man!! totally forgot her feet!! lol! her little toes were not there at all! poor gorjuss! so I had a lil panic and then remebered I had a MISTI now so I could jut pop some ink on the bit I missed and re stamp (..I was worried about this, I suck at re stamping like a leech to blood!!) so i held my breath and just went for it and omg!! it didn't even smudge a teensy bit out of place!! so cool!!!!!

And lining up my sentiment for the heart cut was sooo easy too (...yeah...I normally get that bit of to one side or too high or too low!!!) but with my MISTI I could just squoosh it to where I wanted it, holding my heart still with the little magnet!! awesome sauce!!!!

OOOOOH!! and a teensy update on Little Mo's Big Bike Ride..... £211.31 !!!!! you should hear the little mini man whoops and squee's!! he is just finding this so exciting!!

Anywhoo! that's me for today!! Tiling and painting is calling me!!! 

Just keep swimming!!

Morning peeps!!

Its a lovely sunny day here today so I am going t share this super summery new release from Tiddly Inks! she's so cute!! I went all out bubbly for this one and even added a few little liquid pearl bubbles to come out from her snorkel!! the little sentiment that goes with her so well is from the Floating By clear stamp set.

So I am really excited and proud today too. After a couple of weeks deciding on his charity for this year, Little Mo has decided to help our local RSPCA branch out. I love this little guy!! He has his own little donations page over on just giving, called Little Mo's Big Bike Ride. He has been so excited about the donations he has so far bless him! 

He is going to bike all the way to school ( which is 9.2 miles away!!)  Here's his map. He has printed it out so he can stick it on his handle bars!!

And there is a rather large hill he is a bit worried about but Scott has bought him a little bike computer so he can focus on breaking his speed record instead of panicking (....errr...hopefully!!) If you get a little minute please pop in on his page and read his little story, its so Mo, he wrote it himself!!

right, I had better get on with getting ready for school. Scott is having something picked up today so I will be stuck on parcel collection watch, the time slot they gave is poo!!!!!

Thank you for popping in

Dies- Memory Box Precious stars.

Hi everyone!

Its my turn to post a make over on the Mo's Clubhouse blog and I wanted to share my make in celebration of the gorgeous little Filippo our Franz had a couple of weeks ago.I just had to use Wynken, Blyken and Nod... for my make. It so reminded me of Franz' gorgeous little 3 children, Milla, Niki and Filippo, that I just had to colour it up with 2 boys and a girl in their magical little shoe!! The net is actually beautifully sparkley but as always, getting that photo of sparkle eluded me and after 7 goes I thought 'hey, peeps will know Lou blinged it out!!!!' lol!!

I have had that little starry ribbon in my stash for soo long and I was so pleased to use it for this card.Its so pretty I might need to try and find more of it now!! 

Right, enough boring Lou waffle!! I bet y'all are asleep now!!

Thank you for popping in on me today.

Morning everyone!!

Happy Saturday!!! we are going to have some family bubble time today. I love saturdays, we always make time just to be on a saturday and its the best feeling.

I am popping my card for my gorgeous friend Franz today. Its currently winging its way to her and her family in the mail but I can't wait to share it any longer!! he he he!!

I absolutely loved getting the texture into his soft little blanket, I do it by colouring in just dots and it looks soooo pretty once its done. All I needed to do then was add the personal deets, which I did using word and a little tag from one of my magnolia doo hickey club die sets!

I am also daftly proud of his chubby little cheeks (... the ones on his face  he he he!!!) because I actually managed to get that full little baby cheek look in them!!

Right, I had best pootle on! bubble time is calling me and I have a couple of things to get done first!!

Thank you for popping in

YNS Love and Smiles die set.

Papers- Teresa Collins Summer Stories.

Afternoon all!!

I thought I would pop in with a make I did a couple of weeks ago. It was for a something and our gorgeous Linda used the same poppy stamps die too so I booted my little bunny card out of the something so you guys get to see it instead!!!... the something of course is the Die Cut Essentials magazine, due out on May 21st. I am spoilt because I have seen the makes from the girls and oooooooooooooh they are delicious!!

I love this banner die but found it a tricky one for a Lou's brain to put into use! lol! so I added some strips of my paper and a couple of the sentiment sheet 'posters' to layer it out with before popping my bunny out on some hot glue over the whole lot!!

I made my little bunny look all textured by dotting on him with my blender pen after he was coloured up! soo cute!!

Thank you for popping in

Right, time to chill, we took Mo to the fair tonight with his little friend and my friend and he loved it!! Scott got totally squished by Mo and I on the Jimeney cricket ride! it makes me laugh the whole way through! its bouncy and sooo much fun!!! and so many other rides were just £1 tonight! fabulous fun, we left nibbling freshly made donuts and sweets! perfect!!!! here's mo on one of the inflatable slides, it was sooo funny, my camera took the photo just as his hair floofed up and looked like Wolverine!!!
