A Stitch In Time

Evening All.

Sorry I'm soooooo late with my post today, but I've had a fab day out with my boys :o)

We went to Southend and walked along the beach, played in the penny arcades, ate fish and chips, done some shopping and finished the day with huge ice crams from the posh ice cream palour. Top day out.

Anyhow, todays card is ready for the new challenge at Fab'n'Funky, where this week the theme is 'A Stitch In Time', so we would like to see either stitching real or faux on your creations or a sewing themed card or better still both - you are a talented bunch, so we know that you will come up with some gems.

Morning All.

Well it's wednesday morning, and therefore it's time for the next challenge over at Fab'n'Funky. This week we are on the look out for your Christmas themed creations, to help you get ready early for the big festive event. Our sponsor this time round is 'Fred She Said', so why not pop on over and check out the ther fab DT cards and join in with some festive fun.

I have gone back to my old favourite stamps for my card - good old LOTV. The paper is by Sandylion and has been in my stash forever. The image is coloured with Promarkers, and I have used the new add on ultra fine nibs to do the holly and berries in her headress, which made life far easier. (I now have the full range of Promarkers in my shop, plus ultra fine nibs, a selection of Aquamarkers, and most exciting of all the new Flexmarkers should be with me in September - can't wait). Also the holly charm is from my little shop.

Evening All.

I hope you've had a fab weekend, I know I have. Yesterday, I spent the day at a scrapbooking crop, saw some friends there, and basically had a great time crafting - can't wait until the next one. Today has been more chilled, catching up with family - ending with a very yummy dinner at Mums.

Anyhow, it's time for the next challenge over at Here Come The Boys, and this time round we are looking for your 'Critter' cards - but don't forget to keep them male themed.

Friends

Morning All.

Well what a lovely sunny morning it is today, I'll probably be moaning later that its too hot, the kids are bickering and I dislike the summer holidays. But hey, at the mo, it is bright and cheerful, the birds are singing sweetly, and the children are playing nicely - life is good.

It's time to introduce the latest challenge over at Fab 'n' Funky, and this week our theme is 'Friendship', - a nice easy one after last weeks colours that clash.

I choose to use my new Humphreys corner stamp, which was simply adorable to colour. I have kept the layout simple, and just added one of the large roses that I am now stocking in my shop, to finish the card. I must admit I am far happier with this weeks card.

I would like to enter my card in the following challenges;

Forever Friends - pastel colours

Craft Us Crazy - anything goes

Charisma Cardz - 4 legged friends

Stampin' For The Weekend - anything with 4 legs

Stamptacular Sunday - friends

Craft Your Passion - anything goes
