Hi everyone! 

I'm back with a 2nd post for today because I am so excited!! this card was in a UK craft magazine! I finally got my hands on a copy of it today so I feel safe sharing my make online now!

Our brief was ladies birthday cards using the new Die Namics Build able blooms stamps and Die Namics Build able blooms die set. And we had a gorgeous summery colour palette to follow too.

I used one of the awesome new LDRS SC clear stamps for this make, Wings and Wind. She is just devine to colour up and they stamp beautifully.Then it was time to have some fun with those wonderful stamps and matching dies, they really are so much fun. I panicked I would struggle when I first saw them but they are sooo versatile.

Right, got to go! am absolutely whacked out today and need a good old early night!!

Thank you for popping in, Hugs Lou xx

Wrapping...........

Image- Wrapping.

Morning everyone!

I had a christmassy feeling this week! I don't know why, I just felt the need for some festive feeling!! and for this one I just had to go with Saturated Canary's  Wrapping.

I love this image so much with that little parcel behind her, she would be perfect for a birthday too!!

Right, I've got to scooch! Little Mo is having his class play at school today and we can't wait to see it, he has been singing all the songs and practicing the words in the bath for the past few weeks so to see it all come together will be just wonderful.

Snow Day...

Hi everyone!! I have 2 posts for today and I am starting with a bit of a wintery make! I just had to make a little shaker card using  Snow Day. I keep seeing gorgeous shaker cards pop up and I have to be honest...I suck at them!! i get all my sprinkles stuck to them and get the shaker bit all wrong so for this one I out my best concentrating hat on and made myself a shaker circle by cutting out 6 circles of card with my nestie circles!!!! go meee!!!

Then a few sprinkles , sequins and bits and bobs got plomped into the little share a la Lou and I stuck another piece of acetate over the top so I could make it into a little window that you could see my little cutie through!!

He ha spootled out with Daddy to get a new basketball as Dasher 'helped' him to play with his and it made a rather unhealthy pffffttttttttttttttttttt sound and went a little flat...Dasher thought he had farted but I assured the little 4 paws it was actually the basketball dying......!!!!!

Afternoon all!!!

well i couldn't resist a play with this uber cute $1 Birdhouse image from Tiddly Inks. Its been sitting on my desk for 2 days all printed out and ready to be played with and it just tweeted at me to go for it today!!

It took me a while to get the card done though as I was chatting to my gorgeous budette Becky and she inspired me to go for a walk so me and my 2 pawsers went and had some fresh air before I put the card base together! it is such a beautiful day today though and I enjoyed every minute of fresh air.

I really do adore this cute little card!!! the little sentiment comes in the download too and I love the whimsical script on it. Right, I need a cuppa!! I am just starting to flag after an early start to the day with Mo and need a bit of a pick me up!

Thank you for popping in, Huge hugs Lou xx

Yo Yo Dapper Dan!!

Stamp- Dapper Dan.

Morning all!! 

The summer holidays is coming up soon ( oh boy , I am so on countdown! can't wait to get my hands on some mamma and me time with the squidger!!) and every year Scott and I get together some little bits to put in the mail for Mo for surprises! ( the postman is still kinda exciting to him and in the holidays its all mamma and daddy mail....yeah..its mostly icky bills but to him we still get mail and he doesn't!!) so this is my first Mo Mail make for this holiday!!

He absolutely loves yo yo's! we have tonnes in our house but each new one is exciting and I wanted to make him a special one as I had picked up a couple of plain wooden yo yo's on my travels to keep in reserve!!

Now..for the confession...this is actually Mo's stamp!! lol!! when he saw it he decided it looked just like him so he NEEDED it (...proud mamma moment, I have taught my prodigy well bwah ha ha ha ha!!!) I cut 2 little circles of letraset paper out and stamped just Dapper Dan's head on them. I coloured them both up the same and glued them onto the yo yo then gave it a good old spray with some spray varnish ( I wrapped the string round and covered the centre strip with masking tape before spraying away).

I can't wait to pop it in a little box and get it in the mail for him! roll on holidays!! 2 weeks to go and counting!!

Right, time for a cuppa and a good old womble in blog land!!

Huge hugs for you all Lou xx

Stamps- Wryn swinging by to say Hi.

sentiment- Love you mostest.

Dies- Die Namics cross stitch circles stax.

Die Namics Blueprints 24.

Die Namics Blueprints 1.

Morning everyone!

I am in with my first post of the day and it is of course, a Tiddly Tuesday one!!! so its time for a fun new challenge over on the Tiddly Inks challenge blog and new images...and a $1 digi! whoot whoot!!! we LOVE tuesdays!!!!!

 so the next challenge is...

Anything Goes!

Grab your favourite Tiddly Inks stamp or digital image and set your Tiddly thang free!!!

(**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 didn't have any difficulty choosing my stamp to use today.I love this stamp so much, its so happy and cheery and makes me just want to grab each day as it comes! a little bit of die cut shape layering with my Blueprints dies and it was done! I absolutely love these dies for popping a card together, they make it so easy!!

So Mo's DR appointment went good again. He really does have the best Dr! we fired a bazillion questions at her as Mo needs a little bit of medication for his ADHD to help him at school but his autism causes a few problems for her with finding the right one so it was so tough.

I have to be honest and say the decision to help Mo with medication terrifies me but his Dr is soooo supportive and is only popping him on the very lowest dose and any sign of side effects and she says to take him off it right away....I love her!!!

Right, time to go! I'll be back in a couple of hours with another post so I'll see you then!! pop me a comment in if you want a little Lou visit today!
