i made this instead of buying sweets and just wrapping them up. i got the template for this from my local craft shop for £1.50! Its uber cute and you can change the design as much as you want *SCORE!* I made it for my friends 18th present ... i filled it with little lolly pops instead of the bog standard choccys ... plus the lolly colours went better with it hahah ;) Thanks for taking a peek, please leave me a comment!

My daddy is retro

2008-10-18T14:07:00.000-07:00

I made the extremely cool card for my daddys 50th birthday (he doesnt look 50 at all) i thought id make him a really awesome card this year cos hese half a centry old now lol.

bright rainbow card

2008-09-11T13:51:00.000-07:00

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!

:(

2008-09-11T13:42:00.000-07:00

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

2008-08-11T04:37:00.000-07:00

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

2008-08-05T07:59:00.000-07:00

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

2008-08-05T07:52:00.000-07:00

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.

fairy card!

2008-07-28T23:56:00.001-07:00

I made this using 8 x 8 dovecraft paper, sizzix frosting numbers set decorative die strip, poppicrafts paperflowers and a stamper that i found at a carboot for just £1.50

I made this for my mums friend ... i made a card like this a while ago but i decided to do it again but much neater.

Mum to be

2008-07-23T06:44:00.001-07:00

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

2008-07-23T06:42:00.000-07:00

flutterby

2008-07-23T06:37:00.000-07:00

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

2008-07-23T06:34:00.000-07:00

sunflower

2008-07-18T05:39:00.001-07:00

This is based on the colours of flowers in one of my mums planters. i loved the paper when i found it in my local crafts shop so i had to buy it. My mum loved it because shes into orange these days haha.

hoppy birthday

2008-07-18T05:16:00.000-07:00

The image on the card isnt a stamped image it is from the internet ... i think its a rachel anne niller picture :s either way its cute. i love how the carrot is way larger than the bunny! hope you like it!

blooms and butterflys

2008-07-14T05:05:00.000-07:00

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

2008-07-14T04:59:00.000-07:00

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!

2008-07-14T04:51:00.000-07:00

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

2008-07-14T04:44:00.000-07:00

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 :)

TINS!

2008-07-12T02:19:00.000-07:00

These are what i made very late last night from getting in from shopping with my dad. the tin is from a fruit salad. i ate the fruity goodness first lol. i liked the tin because it wasnt your bog standard riged tin it was all smooth and cute! i based it on a corset and the harliquin design. (you much know it goes with the colours of my shed XD)

On my wishlist

2008-07-10T07:25:00.000-07:00

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!

2008-07-09T15:20:00.000-07:00

HAHA! 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!

ikkle custom baby shoes

2008-06-27T15:33:00.000-07:00

These are the little cute things that i have been making for the past week. i even took the template up to my grans to show her how to make them because they are way cuter than a simple card. you can get the template from google images. These were made for my dads friends relations. hope you like them and thanks for looking!

lola with flowers

2008-06-16T04:43:00.000-07:00

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

2008-06-16T04:39:00.000-07:00

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!

2008-06-16T04:35:00.000-07:00

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

2008-06-16T04:29:00.000-07:00

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 :(

2008-05-31T06:22:00.001-07:00

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

simon and lola

2008-05-31T06:00:00.001-07:00

i made this the other night. ive made a simon and lola before but i didnt reallt finish it :( i used retro floral 6x6 papers and sugar nellies stamp (simon and lola) i loved this stamp because it reminded me of me and the other half :) ( before we had our hair cut though) hope you like it. leave me comments!

Lola with present

2008-05-29T01:50:00.000-07:00

This is what i made when i had nothing to do on monday. my dad came in the house at 4ish and i was sat in the living room with all my clutter around me with several made cards and me still in my jim jams :/ yes it was a very lazy day but i had nothing to due apart from feel sorry for myself because joe was on holiday, mum dad & simon were all at work and my friends went to a gig in newcastle. (i wasnt very keen on the bands playing) sooo.... tell me what you think... bye! xxx

Sweet pea!

2008-05-25T02:24:00.000-07:00

i bought this stamper yesterday with the die cutter. i thought it was cute because of the little bird and i had to but the die cutter because thats what my mum calls me (when shes in a good mood with me of course) yes ... i know the obsession for sugar nellies is growing and growing. Ive only got two more to buy from my local craft shop hehe. i think ill get joe to buy them for me when he comes off his hols! hehe cheeky!

You can recycle everything ...

2008-04-26T02:18:00.000-07:00

EVEN YOUR CAT :)

He was in the wronge place at the wronge time. I was sorting out my silk flwers whilst sat on my bed looking at all the new stuff ive recently got and my cat (fudge) looked so cute i thought i'd re-decorate him a little. soooo ... i put silk flowers all over him and added little button centers to them. Haha i rather liked the outcome! [NO CATS WERE HARMED IN THE MAKING OF THIS PHOTO]

My plant pot is healthy!

2008-04-26T02:14:00.000-07:00

Ive recently started growing my own veg. and my re-vamped plant pot got a healthy friend growing in him :) The cress has grown alot lot more since i took this picture. i had to make the little pirate themed sign to go with the anchor :) i think it looks quite cute.

Recycled motor bike cog

2008-04-26T02:09:00.000-07:00

Me and the other half went for a long walk down the woods near my house and when we got to the cross bikes practice area i found a cog hooked on a tree branch and put it in my back pocket :) Joe looked at my strangely when i said i'd make it into a necklace. so heres the start to finish pics.

new card.

2008-04-09T04:30:00.001-07:00

This is a card i made today. i used dovecraft 6x6 glamour paper and one fo the die cuts from the last "lets make cards" magazine. I also added a little twinkle with some stickles dimond glitter. I just thought i'd experiment with a different shaped card. I saw some lovely triangle shaped cards in a "crafts beautiful" magazine a while ago, so i decided to make one. I think im going to keep on using the trianle shape because i love the out come. Might experiment with a oval card next??? hmmm...

Yay!

2008-04-08T11:35:00.001-07:00

I recieved this lovely card from susie ( http://whiteribboncards.blogspot.com/ ) with some great stampers and a wonderful a.t.c. They are all being displayed on my notice board in my room :) When i received this i had a great big beamer on my face :D

Heres the things i sent her in return :) Its the first time ive sent something to someone and its also my first a.t.c swap.

Just thought i'd let you in on the most ugly card i have ever made. i was sat in my grans house with nothing to do while the rest of the family were gossiping (as they do) so i thought ... I'll get my crafty things out and have a play around! DISASTER!

This is my blog so far. Not so much :P

2008-01-12T14:29:00.000-08:00
