Arghhhhhhhh!

Ever feel like technology is ganging up on you?  For a while now I've been having problems with Internet Explorer "freezing" on my pc, so I tried switching to Chrome.  This is great apart from one thing... it won't let me post, or edit posts in Blogger.  So I have to go back into Blogger via IE to do my posts, but I keep getting error messages saying that my version of IE isn't compatible with Blogger.  To crown it all, my laptop/netbook thingy (not really sure what you call it) has also decided to play up - all of the apps I use, including the Kindle, have suddenly stopped working. I can't get into the Store to update the apps, in case that's the problem.  I've even tried system restore and it still won't work.  NOT happy.

Anyhoo, I'm here to let you know that we have a fabby sketch for you to follow for our latest challenge at Sweet Stampin'.   Here's what I did:

 

 

I used a cute Mo Manning digi which I coloured with my Copics.  The papers are Echo Park and I love the colours! The ribbon is from my stash and the sentiment is a die cut from Craftwork Cards.  I wish I could have been able to post a better photo but I think we're all struggling with our dark and dreadful weather at the moment.

 

 

We're being sponsored by Quixotic Paperie this week and they are giving away a £10 voucher for their online shop to our lucky winner.  The Sweeties have made the most fabulous inspiration projects and the sketch itself is a corker - just right for when Mr Mojo goes walkabout - so do hop on over here to take a look.

 

Will be back tomorrow with my Lovely hAnglar card but in the meantime, have a great day!

Keeping it simple...

I like sketches.  They're great when your mojo's gone walkabout and you don't know where to start.  The sketch at Lili of the Valley this week was really straightforward (always a bonus) so I didn't have to faff too much matching up papers etc.

The image is one of the newer Lili of the Valley girls and she has been coloured with Copics and cut out with a Nestie die.  The paper is from the K&Co Julianne pad and I managed to find some matching blue Bazzill in my stash to cut the Marianne die swirls.  The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and the ribbon was in my stash.

This card is being entered in the following challenges:-

Lili of the Valley - Sketch
CES Challenges - Feeling the Blues

You won't believe what I'm going to do next.  I'm going to get rid of the seaweed that is growing on the drive at the front of the house. Yes, folks, SEAWEED.  That should give you an idea of how wet it has been here over the past couple of days.  And I'll leave you with a tip gained from experience ... never have a white front door when you live on the flight path of seagulls! 

Have a lovely day!

Hugs,
