My first day

My first day off work when the kids haven't been around.  I spent most of the morning pottering around the house, resisting the urge to drive to work to get some new Penny Black stamps and talking with the lovely Dorothy the DT head for Woodware.  Lunch then after lunch a short spot in my Palace for a cardmaking session.

I made this card.  Its another 8 x 8.

I played with lots of things on here.

The striped paper and the light blue are from a Paper stack called LOST IN PARADISE from

GCS Studios and it comes from WOODWARE - ask your local stockist to order it in :)

The Stamp of course is Penny Black

The cloud shame is a cute punch from Fiskars via Crafts U Love

The fence is Magnolia, grass is Martha

The cloud stamp is a stamp I have had for a billion years from All Night Media

Now all i need is the missing sun stamp I tore my shed apart looking for :(  I cant find

it I don't know who made it.  I have googled too to see if I can buy it again. Alas its lost.

I might save this card for Caidens 5th Birthday next month.

Hope you like

Rain Rain go away

What a horrible day it has been.  Raining most of the day and kids climbing the walls.  Anyway, I watched Avatar today, we brought it last week but hadnt had a chance to watch it.  WOW it was fantastic.  Amazing graphics and a good story too.  So pleased it ended how I wanted it too ;)

I made a card today, I used my new Lilli of the Valley stamp and also a few flower stamps from a Stampendous set.  I thought the cute bear would look cute with some large flowers behind him.  I used my Stampin Up! ink pads to colour this in and also used my Glimmer Paint to make my own shimmer spray.  The beautiful flower is Prima.  The words are from the same Stampendous set and the punch is the Word Window punch from SU.  Oh and I cant forget the edge punch that is the Martha Flourish punch which took my a few months to track down!

Also here are some quick boxes that I made using the Vintage Vogue stamp set from Stampin' Up! and the matching wheel.  Not at all my usual style, however it was so easy to make and I LOVE LOVE LOVE the wheel now and I can see this being used a lot, along with the set too when I am feeling more "grown up".

I have entered the above into the Lili of the valley challenge blog http://liliofthevalleythursdaychallenge.blogspot.com/

Have a great bank holiday weekend!

A cute bear

I couldnt resist this adorable Penny Black rubber stamp. Teamed it up with some retired Stampin Up! papers and the Martha punch I think it has turned out cute. I really like the bashful blue with the red, makes a nice team doesnt it.





Coloured with the watercolour wonder crayons, I love using these to colour :)
