Happy Christmas


Another quick post from me tonight,I just do not have a lot of spare time just now!This is a little notebook I have made for my wee daughter using my Bind it all and my Lola da Vinci stamp.I also used my new Martha Stewart border punch..
I probably will not have time to post again before christmas and I certainly won't get time for any crafting!!
I would like to wish all my readers a very Merry Christmas.Have fun and Bye for now.x

Stocking filler



Another quick post today,loads to do!This is a nameplate I made for my wee girl to put up on her door.Made the same as my Christmas wall hanging,by using a piece of giant jigsaw that was no longer wanted.I just cut the "lugs" of it and stuck on paper etc.Lettering is done using a quickutz alphabet.Thanks for looking and I hope you are all organised and not getting too stressed.I am nearly there I think,as long as no one takes ill again.I really hope not,I think I will just sit and cry if anything else happens!!I will try and find time for some bloghopping later.Bye for now.x

I am back!

Hi.Hope everyone is fine.I have not been crafting or blogging much this past 2 weeks as the little ones have been ill and they got better,then I got ill.It just seems to be going round in circles and I am getting fed up with it now.This is the third time now and I hope its the last,especially with christmas coming!!
I have made a few little stocking fillers and this is a little keyring I made using Shrink Plastic and my new Lola Da Vinci stamp,which I love.I just attached it using jump rings along with a couple of ribbons and a star charm.The challenge at Quixotic Paperie this week is to use a star somewhere,so I think this counts.I used Promarkers to colour the image on the shrink plastic.I dont use shrink plastic much as I find it a bit hit or miss and mostly end up with a melted blob,but this turned out not too bad.
Anyway,Thanks for looking and I hope everyone had a stress free weekend.Bye for now.x

Not a Christmas Card!!




My first card in ages that wasn't a christmas one,I enjoyed making it.I received this stamp through the post yesterday and new nestabilities,so I used them to make this card.The stamp is a new Kraftin Kimmie one called Yvette.I loved this stamp as soon as I saw it.She is just so happy looking!!I used the sketch from Papertake Weekly.I am also going to enter it into this weeks challenge at Quixotic Challenges.This week you had to use a charm on your card,so I used the little heart charm tied onto the orange velvet ribbon.I also used My Minds Eye Bloom and Grow papers.The little flower in the corner is a stamp that you get along with Yvette.
I hope everyone is fine and not too rushed of their feet in the run up to Christmas.
Thanks for looking.Bye.x

Done!!




I am finished my christmas cards now,but I still have some more to post.I think I will make a non-christmassy card today if I get a chance!This card was made using the sketch from www.sketchsaturday.blogspot.com. I used my usual papers with a scribble tree stamp I had from last year.I stamped it in three matching colours and went over them with Stickles.I then finished it with a greeting done on computer and some gems.Thanks for looking.Bye for now.x

Christmas Tree



Another quick card made using scraps of paper cut into christmas trees.I added squiggles of Stickles onto them to brighten them up and layered it on My Minds Eye paper.Greeting done on computer.I used the sketch from www.fridaysketchersblog.blogspot.com.
I am really looking forward to getting the Christmas cards done.Only two more to make for an order for somebody and that is it.I am looking forward to making a birthday card.!!
I hope everyone had a nice weekend.Thanks for looking.x

No Stamping!






I hope you are not getting bored of seeing my cards made with these papers.They are nearly done anyway,I promise!!This is a quick card I have made using My Minds Eye papers and also the diecuts you get with them.
I have not had much time recently as both my kids are suffering from the cold or some sort of bug and my little boy is teething as well on top of everything!I have not really been blog hopping much or leaving comments,but hopefully things are getting better and I will get a chance.
Thanks everybody for stopping by and leaving your lovely comments.A special mention as well to Marley and Juls.They are always stopping by and leaving me lovely comments,but I just cant leave comments on their blogs at all and I do not know why.After I visit their blogs,blogger stops working for me and I usually have to restart my computer.I am utterly baffled as it cant be their blogs it must be my computer.
Anyway,kids are sleeping so I am away to see what I can do.
Bye for now.x
