Something for the Weekend!

Hi crafty friends & bloggers, hope you're all well.

So it's Saturday already which means......welcome to 'Something for the Weekend'!

Come share something with me.....could be a crafty make, a photo, a joke, 

anything you'd like to share I'd like to see!

I was going to share a non crafty make today but was so pleased with these little toppers

I just had to share them! Why? Well, because I got all 3 toppers from one sheet, 1 piece of

 paper and 1 sheet of gold mirri card......and I still have some left! So now I'm 

thinking I might have to challenge myself more to see just how much I can get from so 

little......watch this space lol. Not sure where the topper sheet came from, it must be

quite old......I'm on a mission to use up old stash, only thing is I never seem to get to the

end of anything. Some of the kits you can buy nowadays have so much in them, I suppose 

that's a good thing in one way but sometimes I do end up with quite a lot left. Still, I'm

not complaining, it just means I have to have a good sort out every so often & when I 

find something I forgot I had it's like having something new all over again!

Enough waffling from me, thanks for calling & whatever you're up to....

have a lovely weekend!

Morning crafty friends & bloggers, welcome to 'Something for the Weekend'.....the perfect

time to share something......anything you want, doesn't have to be crafty!

I have a card topper to share today....all pink & silver & black with lots of foiling too

although that doesn't show up too well in the photo, it's so much prettier IRL.

I was debating whether or not to put this on the front of a notebook so it could be used 

as one of those books that people sign & leave a little message in at parties.

Or I could make it into a card & make a notebook as well.....ooh, I've got a head

full of ideas now lol!

Nothing much planned here today, was going to have a wander around town with

my grandson but it's cold, dark & ever so wet so might have to have a rethink on that.

Do you have anything nice planned?

Thanks for calling......see you tomorrow.

Something for the Weekend!

Hi friends.......welcome to 'Something for the Weekend'!
My share this weekend is a furry one lol.....some of you might know I'm a bit
of a crazy cat lady........and I think one of my boys uses that to his advantage lol.
So when Willow needed a home he literally just turned up with her......then about 3 weeks
later he arrived with her brother, Dash..........how could I refuse those sweet faces?
They're now 6 months old & they really are the sweetest kittens, they get on so well with the others, they love snuggles, spiders......and worms!! And when they purr
it sounds like a  freight train going past!!
Hope you're having a lovely weekend.....and if you want to share 'Something for the
Weekend' do leave me a comment so I can come visit you too.
Thanks for calling......see you tomorrow.

Something for the Weekend!

Morning crafty friends & bloggers, hope you're all well......and welcome to
Something for the Weekend!
Today I have a Christmas card to share.......all pink & gold & shiny.....so
not me lol but I have to say I love it! I started with a base of gold mirri card
then added elements from a Studio Light sheet. Of course, I couldn't stop there
and so I added more gold die cuts & finished with a couple of faux gems.
I'm loving the Studio Light booklets, they offer so much and you can make them
as simple as you like or add to them as much as you like......and there's a
fantastic range too.....booklets for all occasions!
Rightio, that's me for today........off for a wander around the town.
Thanks for calling......see you tomorrow!

Something for the Weekend!

Morning crafty friends, welcome to Something for the Weekend!

Do you have anything nice planned? We have a shopping day planned for today

then tomorrow it's craft, craft & more craft!

So this Something for the Weekend is a 16th birthday card topper. It measures approx

5x5 square so will sit nicely on a 6x6 card blank. I used mostly bits & bobs & just 

a few faux gems to finish! Papers are from Craftwork Cards, the bunting die is

Marianne, the punches I have no idea.....I think they're older than some of my

children lol! Number dies are Memory Box & the 'sweet' die was an Ebay buy.

Better dash......got a busy day ahead. Thanks for calling, have a lovely day!

Hi crafty friends......welcome to 'Something for the Weekend'!

So what do you think to this weather then? Can't believe we're having a run of sunshine.......

For this weekend I thought I'd share a pic of one of our cats.....this handsome boy is Tom, he's a year old, all grey and he's huge! He's a strange one though, is our Tom....he doesn't like

 cuddles but he loves to have the side of his head rubbed lol..........and he's loud......very loud! He's always 1st to the food bowl......and the last to come in!

Rightio, it's a crafty afternoon for me......hope you manage some time doing what you love!

Something for the Weekend - Let's Bake!

Hi friends......welcome to Something for the Weekend!

This weekend it's food related.....not good for my waistline but good fun to make!

I've been in a baking mood for a good few weeks now.....cakes, fudge, flapjack, chocolates...

......all the things I know are bad for you (eeek!) but I figured a little bit of what you fancy 

doesn't do you any harm......right? And in my house nothing lasts long enough to cause me

any serious problems lol!

I made a card topper, a little bit shabby in style using my favourite kraft card.......and more 

bits from my bit box! Everything was die cut then simply layered onto a piece of floral

 paper with distressed edges & finished with a few faux pearls.

So after I'd finished the topper I made some cupcakes.....I'd originally planned one big

 cake but I figured if I made cupcakes I'd have more chance of controlling the portion size!

Here's my Coffee & Walnut cupcakes

I have to say they looked much better in real life and oh my, they tasted delicious!

The sponge was moist & delicious, the coffee flavour topping was sooooo good & then the

walnut to finish was just perfect! 

Thanks for calling, have a lovely weekend & whatever you're up to hope you manage

a crafty hour......or two!
