Ok, Kellie is celebrating 100,000 blog hits by offering this adorable candy....just pop across and find out how to join in....you have until 23rd April to do so!! bx

Hoppy Easter....

I do love this Magnolia image from last year....so decided to get Tilda inked up again!! I am entering her into "Stampin' for the Weekend" and "Stamp with Fun"as they both have the theme of Easter! I am also entering this card into Roses on Paper as their challenge is Punch it - I have used a Martha Stewart punch along one of my edges!

Must confess I am also in love with these new MME papers! bx

Blessings....

I used the cute "vintage baby" (by Sugar Nellie) for this christening card which fits with the current theme of "Babies" at Crafty Creations Challenges!

I did have a bit of a hunt through my paper mountain to find some suitable baby boy papers...this collection by Making Memories rescued me!! The sentiment is by Penny Black.

Note to self: invest in some boy papers!! Great excuse to shop!! bx

You're a Star!

This is my entry for The Sugar Bowl's latest sketch with Please Include "Stars". Time to dig another lil gorguss gal outta the closet for this one....and of course some yummy new MME papers...love them!

Short and sweet from me again....the chores await!! bx

Ok...my card...I've used Papertake Weekly Challenge's sketch, no problems there....but I decided to rise to the challenge of Monochromatic as requested by Stamping For The Weekend....and that was a challenge for me!! lol bx

Kick up your Heels!!!

I'm only getting around to inking up this cute Tilda now, but she is perfect for the recipient of this card....she does have the long hair and she does love to dance!! bx

I'm entering this card to:

Friday sketchers - I used their sketch

Cute Card Thursday - Celebrations (this is for the big 4 oh, but a lady doesn't need her age plastered on the front right...? I did personalise it a little though after taking this photo!)

Stamp Something - Something Girly

Oops...I nearly did it again!!

I almost didn't get my entry for The Sugar Bowl posted in time!!! The sketch is fab, and the please include is "shabby chic"....now some of the ladies out there have shabby down to a tee....me..? I need s'more practice I think....but it is one of my favourite looks and I did enjoy making this card!!

The fab image was sent to me from my "wee pal" Sharon (thanks again mon cher)....perfect timing too for a friends 40th!

...and this is my card from the previous Sugar Bowl Challenge....it was a sketch by Tiets and I do love Tiet's sketches with all the layers! bx

I'm entering this card into the following challenges:

Double Dutch - Boys Only

Allsorts - Just for Men

A Spoon Full of Sugar - Recycle (the blue twill ribbon was rescued from my new bundle of T-towels!!) bx

My First Tent Card....

Isn't this "Tent Card" a cute change from the norm..? It's the challenge over at Just Magnolia and I fancied giving it a go! I just realised though, that in my haste, I haven't photographed the card from the side but it's definitely a tent card!! It was easy to make so I'm sure I'll have another go!!

I had some surprise mail recently.....

I received these fabulous goodies from my lovely friend Sharon....sorry it took me so long to post them Sharon......

....and "thank you" so much for being so kind and thoughtful....I can't wait to play with all my new toys....oh, I did dip into those yummmmmmy Lindt caramel's in that Sugar Nellie envelope.....just in case they wouldn't keep!! bx
