Tiddly Inks challenge #164...Have Heart...


Morning everyone!

Are you all set for another fun Tiddly Inks challenge?!! oh goody because its time for a new one!! So, the next challenge is...

Have Heart!

Grab your favourite Tiddly Inks stamp or digital image and think along the lines of images/stamps with hearts, heart themed papers/ embellies, etc!

(**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 **)

So I got all buggy with those gorgeous little ladybirds in the  Cute as a Bug clear stamp set....and of course, the matching Bugging Out papers just had to be broken out too!!!

Right, got to get my passion for promarkers post written up and then I am mostly going to mooch for the rest of the day. I am feeling a bit sad today so mooching and nice hot cups of lemon tea are going to perk me up..and of course Mo time too, a good snuggle from him should do the trick.

Morning everyone! 
I have the cutest little celebration mouse you ever did see! I adore the new little Cupcake Mouse from Mo's Digital Pencil and he really is the most fun to colour up.

I am so loving the school holidays and I am also soooo wanting them to slow down!! how do they just zooom past so quick? Mo has had a couple of bouts of poorly this time, this awful coughy bug has been the worst but he picked up over the weekend and we had the best day out at Belton House on sunday. Today I'll be having a good snooze after work last night and then I will be ready for some more holiday adventures! he he he!!!

Thank you for popping in

Boo-licious treats...


Morning peeps!!

I had to get fiddling with that Frightfully Fun stamp set again!! I just can't stop thinking of bits to make with it!!

Again, IKEA came to my whims of what I needed to make with a set of stacking gift boxes just screaming out to be spooked up!! I grabbed the purple one and got busy with some mossy stuff I got from the Range and then it was time for some embossing fun for the little stars. I love that all these little scene building bits come in this set. I stamped the lil ghosties and curled them round my dowel before popping them on with some foam.

The Frightful Fence die is still getting some hammer! I glued it around the lid of the box so the lid is all one cute little piece of fun when its off! LOVE IT!!!

I fussy cut a little banner for that fabulous sentiment and rolled it around my dowel to get it looking all funky!!

Mo even made me a super cute little skull out of clay to include in our little photo set up!! he he he!!

right, got to go. Its our anniversary today and we are both feeling rather under the weather! we took Mo out for a cooked breakfast so we have done something nice and we are going to try a walk on the common with the dogs!!

Thank you for popping in
hugs and squishes, Lou xx

Choir....

Morning everyone! 

I just had to share a bit of festive cheer for you!! I couldn't resist but use this gorgeous little  Choir (Redux) that Maurie recently re jigged. Its just divine. I used it for a cute little gift bag ready to stuff with some christmas goodies.

I got these little gift bags in the sale at IKEA last year and i can honestly say they have been one of my most fun buys! they are just 4" square but make the cutest gift bags ever.

And...as promised last week..here is Mo and his little Darwin having their first bathtime bonding session. If you have small pets and small children this really is a great way to bond them with no worries about escaped little furries!! Mo loved being able to watch Darwin scurry around all his toys and after just 3 minutes Darwin was happy to go up to Mo and take food from his hand. Magic.
