Happy Sunny Saturday everyone :)
 What a gorgeous few days we have had, hope it continues a little while longer. We should have been at our daughter's today for a BBQ but she called off as she has a dreadful bad cough and bad throat....no thanks we can do without that :~
 So we went up to strim the gardens for my grandson so he can at least get the lawn Mower on them. They were far to long for the mower to tackle, He has made a start at doing his list of jobs he wants to tackle and there was wood and saw benches etc everywhere so we did the gardens and escaped....lol.

 Well before the coffee goes on I wanted to show you my card and link it up to the Ribbon Girls Colour 19 Challenge, which is also Vintage & Cream. This was the gorgeous Inspirational Picture

So this what I came up with......... My papers are much more dusky pink than they are showing, I think the sun is tooo bright ...but don't tell it or it will vanish.

The image was from Free Vintage images and the flower I made with lace from my stash.

butterfly is Memory Box Vivienne Die.

 Will link it up to a couple more of my favourite Challenge blogs shortly.

 Hugs for now xxxxxxx

Celebration challenge at MAWTT

Good morning everyone, thursday again and we have a brand new challenge over at MAWTT this week our lovely Kim is hosting and would like to see Celebration cards..Not Birthday so new house, new baby, Anniversary, Wedding.... well I am sure you know the game. Just remember No birthday this week

we have a lovely prize of a £10 Voucher excluding. P&P from the Lovely Crafty Emma's store 

I decided to make a New Home card, as my Grandson has just got the keys last weekend to his first home. He is so pleased with it, its a lovely house and as he was renting a luxury apartment before, he really needed to put all that rental money into a morgage. Its so hard for the young ones to get onto the property market but he's done it and we are so  happy for him :)  and as he is single he has a chance to get established and get it how he wants it.

Anyway enough waffle here is my card....

I wasn't at all happy with it, but with my bad shoulder last week I really struggled to craft. I didn't seem to have a clue and  my mojo had totally gone walk about :(

Hope we see your wonderful Celebration creations over at MAWTT.please pop over and see what the girls have created and leave them some love xxxx

 I am entering into...

Fab n Funky ...New beginnings

Well hope you have all had a good day ...well better than mine at least. I woke this morning to find I couldn't get my 
shoulders off the bed :(  I have got a severley pulled or trapped muscle in my shoulder blade...yelp!! I can't breathe in because of the pain in my ribs. What I have done I haven't a clue, Den had to pull me up he said I rose like a mummy rising from a tomb...lol.  Sadly I couldn't even get to visit my grandson for his birthday..he came to me instead :) He is 19 today and a super young man xx

We are All at sea at MAWTT

Morning everyone, Yes maybe you have guessed our brand new Nautical challenge at MAWTT has begun and our Lovely Navy wife Leesa has sailed in from Oz to choose the theme this week   :))
 We want to see all your fab creations with anything to do with the Sea.
We have a Fab prize up for grabs from Sir Stamp Alot

I wish I could enter....lol
This was my DT card, but if you pop over to visit the blog you will see some fab inspiration from the others girls, don't forget to stop and say hi to them :)

The image is from Delicious doodles, and the sentiment I produced on the PC. I thought it was suitable for someone who is struggling at present, we all seem to know plenty of those don't we.

a little peak inside..... awaiting a sentiment

I am entering this into Diva's by design..one for the boys
The perfect Sentiment..Get well without getting Well
Try it on Tuesdays..On the beach
  Catch you all soon, Hugs xxxx

 

Whew!! only just....

This is a last minute rush as always....lol is it only me thats always chasing my tail. I just do not have enough hours in the day. Saying that I have lost a day with the bank holiday, I keep thinking its tuesday today :~ Is everyone else having that problem.
 Well I had to make a card for a friend and she wanted Thomas on it and 21 and computers, well I don't do male cards very well at all and this was a major challenge for me. I had nothing but my cricut to cut thomas and 1" being the smallest, is really much too big in my opinion for this card. I also hadn't an image so I went shopping to Mo's and found this, which was perfect :)) 

I will add a sentiment when she has seen it.
 I am entering into Mo's DP2" challenge..Anything Goes
and also Passion for promarkers 148 .. Special Birthday
Must dash to catch Mo's challenge so will be back later xxx
 Hugs xx

Nothing to show but!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Happy Saturday :))
 Nothing to show you in the way of a card yet, but couldn't wait to let you know I got the shock of my life last night when my daughter texted to say did I know that I had won Mina's  Followers Candy....How good is that! I am dancing and singing here :)  I almost missed it as Mina posted it 2days ago and I had visited her and not noticed it ..DOH!  I haven't slept for thinking what I can buy....lol  Its one amazing lot of Candy.
 So before I craft today I am off to do some shopping, well I might misplace my vouchers so its best to spend them quickly isn't it :))
 See you soon hopefully with a card,
Thank you so much Mina, you are one very generous lady.
 Hugs XXX

Summer Sunshine challenge at MAWTT

Good Morning Everybody  :) 
first let me say a huge thank you to everyone that entered my first ever challenge last week, the entries were amazing.

Well here we are at Thursday yet again, another week nearer Christmas...lol  but  first of all we are going to have a week of Sunshine :)) yep! you heard right. We are sick of this cold wet windy weather so our lovely Claire  has decided we need a change at MAWTT with "Summer Sunshine" so we want to see all your wonderful Summer creations.
Our kind sponsor this week is Di's digi downloads

Who are giving our lucky winner a prize of some free Digi's.
 For my DT card I used a  Faye Whittaker's all our yesterdays stamp, You can get these from Joanna Sheen. I actually purchased it at a local show last month as i fell in love with it.
 I double stamped the straw hat and sailor shirt  and added pads under to give it a bit of depth, sadly my pictures haven't shown it ..oh well can't win em all!!

I coloured the image with promarkers and polychromos pencils, I cut the bunting out and then replaced it on the boat so that the sea could be seen through it. Sand and sea I did with pencils and sansodor, sorry the white waves haven't shown up in the photo very good either ..doh!

just a fancy angle on it....trying to be clever now aren't I....lol
That's all from me for now but will get round to see you as soon as I get the dreaded h/w done. I might even get chance to link up to a couple of Challenges I want to enter, if I get a move on with the jobs that need doing first.   Hugs xxx

Catered Crop..the letter B
