image a couple weeks ago on a completely different style of

card & said I thought she might look good on a Christmas card....

dressed in her little fur trimmed santa dress lol....and I think she

might even be singing "Rockin' around the Christmas tree".....

......bet you're all singing along now hehe!!!!

Pretty in Pink

Morning to you lovely crafty bloggers....hope you're all well!

It's a dull, dark, grey morning here on the Yorkshire

 Coast and I've been up for ages....to be honest I love these kind

of mornings - getting up early while all the kids are still

sleeping and it's oh, so quiet - perfect crafty time!

So for today I'm sharing a bright, cheerful Spring - like card - 

don't all those pretty colours cheer you up?

Love, love, love this image.....think it's probably cos it

reminds me of Miss Rebecca........she always sits just like her

and she often has the plaits too, Not so sure about the dots

on her cheeks tho....think I was a bit too heavy handed

with the white pen but there you go, you learn as you go 

with crafting, don't you? Rightio, think it's time I put the kettle

on again, thanks for calling & hope your days' a good one!

 Happy Friday friends!! Time for another challenge over at 

Digitally Sweet Challenges

and this time we have a pic for inspiration! 

Just look at all those gorgeous colours.....but you might take the

jars as inspiration or even the sweets!! It's up to you - the only 

real rule is your work must be 100% digital! You can check

 out the DT fab creations here and you have until next Thursday 

to play! I took inspiration from the colours and created a

 LO in Craft Artist using the Playground digi kit. The pic is 

of Miss Rebecca & her unicorn....won in one of those daft machines

 in the arcades at the seafront.....we tried so hard to win it for her

then when we were down to our last coin she reached up

and randomly pressed the button.....and WON!

Thanks for calling today, see you tomorrow!

A little book of books!!

Morning friends, hope you're all well & enjoying the 

same Spring-like weather we're having....still a bit

 chilly though. So for today I'm sharing something I made

 for Miss Rebecca....it's a little book of books.....a 

journal for her to record all the books she reads (and she 

sure reads a lot), she then writes a review of each 

one & rates them out of 5! I did want to embellish it a bit

 more but Rebecca said no.....she wanted it just as

it is....so that's what she got lol. Everything is from

my scrap box and the silver skull is actually recycled 

from the zipper from an old hoodie....waste not, want not!!    

So that's it, I'm off to trawl the internet....now my

stash ban is over I really need to shop hehe!

Thanks for calling, hope you have a great day!
