Hi friends!
Well, I don't think I can take much more of this heat! I know...I'm a

Anyways, enough waffling...today's card is another "just because".....!

Just one more purple card......!


Wow, what a gorgeous day it was yesterday...was great to get the washing out
and see lovely blue sky for a change....looks quite promising for today, too!
So today I'm sharing the last of my purple cards, well, last for now, you know me...I just can't resist
purple! This is a "just because" card....I'll add a sentiment to it when I know where it's going - prob to one of Miss Rebecca's friends!
More housework today, bit more ironing, some washing....oh what an exciting life I lead!
Not complaining really, I'm quite happy with my lot and the sooner

In a Nutshell!!

Morning, how are you today?
Well,I thought I'd save the purple for another day and share instead this pretty little 
flower easel card......in  pink! I think I could easily become obsessed with these little 
Nutshell stamps from Nutcrafters...they are just sooo cute! I made the white card base with my flower dies, layered it up with pink card and patterned paper, added some flourishes, pearls, flowers and the fab little image and that's it! 
Got the grocery shop to do today, some ironing, hopefully an hours craft, then gonna spend the evening catching up on all your fab blogs!
Thanks for stopping by today!
See you tomorrow.

Mum, we're just friends......!

Phew, so glad it's Monday!
Have you all had a lovely weekend?
Been a bit manic here this.....gonna have a good tidy up then maybe a little 
play in the craftroom before kiddos come home from school/college/work!
So today's card is.......yep, purple again......one more to post after this one then I promise I'll
make something in a different colour lol! Anyways, this card is for my 4th Son, Chris, to give to his
"friend" Lucy....and believe it or not she's the absolute double of this image!
I knew when he said  "Muuuuum, can you make me a card, please?"  there was gonna be trouble.....he knew exactly how he wanted it to look....had to be just right for Lucy!!
Hope she likes it!!
That's it from me today, thanks for stopping by and

Black, purple and an emo named Bex!

My, oh my, what a day yesterday was!
 My sweet, kind, gorgeous, curly blonde haired Daughter has informed me that now she's 
10 years old she wants to be an EMO and a vegetarian!The vegetarian part I can cope with but the EMO part.....hmmmm.......still, don't suppose it really means much at 10, does it? I think emo is originally a genre of music and nowadays is associated with those that wear skinny jeans, striped tops, mostly black with a pop of bright colour and have straight, black hair! For Bex, it means she wants to wear black & purple, tights with shorts and have streaks in her hair lol! I think having big Brothers with tattoos and piercings, etc has finally caught up with her! At least we all like the same music, that's a big thing in our house! So for this little wall hanging I used the fab Nutcrafters stamp...I think she's called Mac.....she's coloured up perfectly in Bex's "emo" colours and she's now hanging on her bedroom wall keeping an eye on everything!
I think you're gonna be seeing a lot more of these fab images....I was lucky enough to win a challenge at Nutcrafters a couple months ago and so bought some gorgeous stamps/digis....great prices and fast delivery, too!
Then yesterday I was lucky enough to win again!!
Anyway, that's enough of my waffling...hope you're all having a great weekend
and thanks for looking, today!
Oh, nearly forgot to say....
Well Done, Phillip Phillips....through to the American Idol final!!
What a voice!

Spots, Stripes and heart shaped bunting!

Morning, Happy Saturday!
A big welcome to my new followers.....thanks for joining me, I really appreciate it
and hope you can find some inspiration in my little corner of blogland! 
Don't know about you but I'm sure ready for a nice, lazy weekend.......some
 craft time with my now 10 year old
little Miss.....some naughty but nice food......and American Idol!
Big apologies, too.....I'm a bit behind on commenting this week.....hope you can bear with me and I'll be back on track by the weekend!
Today's card is made using an image that's been sat in my box for ages just waiting to be used!
It was a freebie over at Dude Time Doodles and I coloured it then missed the deadline for the
challenge......doh......typical me! So out of the box it came today and all that's been going through my head
all day is that song, you know, the one that goes"It must be love, love, love".....hence the love heart bunting!
No sentiment as yet, think I'll wait 'til I use the card then decide on one!I followed this fab sketch
from over at Willow Sketchie:
I've slightly change the layout and added the bunting so hope that's OK!
Okey dokey, that's it for me today, thanks for popping by.
Hope your days' a good one!

Where did i put my glasses???

Good morning bloggers, how are you today? Well, i hope.
First, apologies for the terrible photo.....it was grey & dull all day yesterday!
In real life the papers are a gorgeous chocolate brown and soft pink with cream lace!
Just a quick post to
share my new glasses holder! When i'm crafting my glasses are on and off that many times and i always end up losing them amongst my stash.....i've even been known to accidently throw them out....ooops!
So, here's a little cardboard tube that my Son received his new sunglasses in ......not that we need sunglasses right now.... i've decorated it to match my promarker storage unit and it sits right there on
my desk just waiting for me to pop my glasses in!!!Just need to get into the habit of doing so, now lol!
Right, housework calls....will be back later with the winner of my My Memories giveaway
and some news!!
Have a good day!
