bright rainbow card


Today i bought a great bunch of goodies from ... (wait for it) A second hand stall. I went to it twice lol. when i paid her the second time she said "see you in five minutes" so i just gave her the thumbs up. but sadly i didnt return ... i bought all the good things haha! I made this card from my really cheap stamp i purchased last boxing day from hobby craft and some scabby old bits of ribbons. ... oh yeh i bought the multi coloured stamp pad off the market for a bargain of £1 ... nearly bought 1 for £4.85 the other day and it was way way smaller!

:(


On Monday the 8th we had to put my poor little sick kitty cat to sleep. He had feline diabetes and he also started having fits. We didnt want to put him on madication because we did that with a first chewy dog and he thought he could fly because he was that high on drugs. It was a little selfish of us trying to keep him here so we had to let him go. he will be missed lots and lots by all the family and friends. He was a little mischief.. he always terrorised the dogs.My best friends mum sent him to rainbow bridge on her forum ... heres the little section i wrote for it:
"I'm sad to say goodbye,but happy to let you be in peace.It would have been cruel of me to keep you here....so i had to let you go. I'll miss the late night cuddles and your paw ending up in my dinners. But now i know you are at rest and happy roaming in heaven. Rest in peace little man and go play with Tara,Ellie and Micky, just like old times."

Rest in peace Fudge. You will truly be missed!

note pad




This is the little thing that i made the other day. its strange because im more of a keen card maker not a keen note book maker but i had fun making it. i found some old uncut chipboard that i had laying around in the shed and decided to use my bigshot and my circle scalloped die aswell. i decorated it with the free papers that i got in a mag i got a while ago. the paper thats inside it was from and old notebook that i had but it was square so i had to die cut that too. i painted the chipboard with purple paint mixed with glue so it didnt crack later on. the ring binding it all together was from my local craft shop. i bought siz rings in total. 2 purple, 2silver and 2 blue. i bought these a while ago and i thought atleast one needed a good use lol. hope you like it!

Joes dad and brothers card












Ive had to make 2 cards in two days which means not alot of thinking time. The first one is for joes dad ... i chose the parker because his dad used to be a mod back in the day. I could have put a scooter on it but he didnt have one. The second one is for his brother who turns 21 tomorrow, hes totally addicted to his computer so i thought this would be perfect. its a shaker card too.

sugar nellies




Yep there back out again. i did these a while ago but i forgot to post them on here for you wonderful guys to look at (sorry) haha if you notice they all have scalloped circles on them ... thats because my mummy bought me the pink big shot that i wanted :) im soooo chuffed! I also treated myself to a new set of water colour pencils. I needed them because i was missing several colours due to the puppy. my mum was wondering why he started off white and come back pink and blue haha.

Mum to be


everyone loves it when they find out that one of there friends or family are going to have a baby and when i found out that you can actually get "mum to be" cards i was stunned. i thought they were so sweet. I only found out when it was near mothers day and my friend got one off her mum. AWWW! hope you like it! Ive used doodle bug papers again with a rachel anne miller picture on it :)

nans card


I made this card for my nans birthday. i made it early cos i didnt get her one last year but this year i thought she really deserved one. her names violet so i made the card purples and pinks with a hint of green. i hope she likes it!

flutterby


I made this card while i still had the energy. i started it one night and finished it the next morning. i had to downtone the butterfly but also add something to it if you get what i mean so i used the scraps to add onto the wings

doodlebug card


This is what i made the other day whilst on a card spree. i made it using doodlebug 12x12 scrapbook paper that i bought from my local crafts shop. i bought the paper because it was nice and bright. This card whould be great for a male :)

blooms and butterflys











Made this little cutie this morning. i bought the printed papers from my local crafts shop yeasterday and they were only 10p each BARGAIN! I stuck with the colours blue, brown, green and gold. the flower is from a pack i bought from a woman on ebay and the birthday wishes is from craft work cards birthday circles. hope you like it!

Flowers card











This is what i made using the new goodies that i bought from my local crafts shop. I love the floral paper because it is pearl paper that its printed on. the paper flowers are what i bought a while ago and the ribbon is from poppicrafts. i really love my polkadots these days ...which is good because they are in fashion too :P

Blooming great!










I bought some large blooms a while back froma fab ladie on ebay. she sent me the blooms but she also sent me a great free goodie bag full of things that would co-ordinate with the blooms such as brads, eyelets, stickers and embelishments which was lovely of her to do. i used doodlebug 12x12 striped paper for the background and craft work cards birthday circles. Oh and the twinkle on the flower is stickles glitter glue. my mum really likes it ... i think its because it is shiney

jemima puddle duck card












This card is made for the other halfs mums birthday. seen as though i was late with her present last year i decided to make a card for her early this year. some would say tied the knot in the elephants trunk. i got the stamper free with a magazine a while ago and i know she loves anything to do with peter rabbit and friends so i thought it would be great because it is going to be from me and joe to his mum ( i class her as my second best mum) so she deserves a great card from us 2 :)

On my wishlist


These lil' babies are on my birthday wishlist. Oh yeh both of them haha. both are in cute colours and will aslo go with the pastel colours in my shed! i really want the sizzix because them i can use big dies instead of the sizzlits. i'm not saying i dont love them .... but the bigz are larger, more choice and prettier! ive seen many dies that i would like to invest in. such as the great skull and cross bones one that keeps appearing in my local craft store! ooo and this pretty vines thingy majig that was featured in a great mini magazine in the newest crafts beautiful. ooooo i wish i had a job to keep me busy and then it would fund my spending habbits! LOL thanks fro reading!

This just shows how much fun you can have in my shed with all the sticky stuff :P joe decided to play with my double sided sticky tape and make a mustache when i was making my jars and i turned round and it was stuck there so i burst out laffing then grabbed the sticky tape and made a matching goatee. I also ripped them off and he was in pain. OOPS!

lola with flowers


lola with flowers .... and i mean LOTS! this is what i made a while ago but i forgot to take a pc whilst it was sunny and i couldnt because i was sorting some cards out for my gran to take to my uncles nursing home for the staff that are always asking for them :P This time they even had a fight over a handbag shaped one haha. to say i wasnt that keen on it ....they were! Looks great to say that the background paper is wallpaper

tall lola


I made this card yesterday! i got my brother to lend me £5 to get this one ... i also got the simon in shorts stamper too but shhhhh... you'll be seeing him pretty soon :) i used my tall cards that i got from the works and the paper from the lastest issue of crafts beautiful. the shiney flowers are just that silver tape my dad got me and the woodware punchers. Look at the likkel bunny that shes holding ....awww cute! Oh and another good point about this image is .... i can use it for easter cards and gifts!

simon and lola ... but smaller!


Ive really grown to love my sugar nellies and my new envolope templates :) it always feel better when you do things from scratch. this card was much bigger than this before i eventually decided to do something with it. you know what they say...good things come in small packages :) i thik ive finally found my "umf!" again lol. i really did have a dry spell from crafting :( but now its twinkleing again!

really small


Today i made a really small and cute card using my envolope templates my mum bought me. its only 3" 1/2 by 2" 1/2. its about time i used soem of my papers and i like the fact that i made a matching envolope. i finally used my wingo zingo alphabet die today (bout time) so the little font on it saying "thanks" isnt peel offs. its some silver tape stuff that my dad found for me on a building site he was working on :P ...so ive put it to some good use :) the background paper that i have used is 8x8 retro floral papers from the dovecraft range :)

Lost my ideas :(


I think it might be because i cant use my new wingo zingo alphabet dies till i got to hobby craft and buy the 13" sandwich plates :( Ohhh well ... least i found them at a cheap price :) i was in hobby craft the other night after i picked up my mum from work and i only had £2 on me :( and i saw lots of goodies :) its a shame that money doesnt appear from no where ...althogh i did find £1.80 the other day down the side of the sofa and i also found another £1 last night ... i think im going to make my dad and joe sit there more often :P
