Shout from ye hilltops!

I have done a card... OK its only been a few days but its felt like forever ago!! LOL I got three lovely stamps from Wild Rose Studio .co.uk today. Beautiful pink packaging, lovely clear crisp
images ;0) Too cute designs.







The first one I opened was the doggy one, whilst I love both dogs and cats Milo is such a character that I felt compelled to do a dog card first. Teamed with some lovely Daisy Bucket Papers which I got from Sir Stampalot and the much loved Polkda Dot Punches stamps from SU and yes I know I have been using them to death but I want you all to love them and you only have 19 more days in which you can get these *I am talking about the polka dot punches only for 19 days and NOT the Wild Rose ... AND I only have 19 more days that I can promote them and enjoy them myself ;0).. so anyway I digress.....





Dont those punched flower look lovely embossed in white ? ** Note to self.... emboss more, its fun and looks beautiful ** the little with love is from the "yummy" saleabration set and is fantastic for the front of cards... but also for the back with your signature.

Edited to add one of my fav stores The Glitter Pot now have these WIld Rose in stock!

Picture of the punch

A lady asked what I was looking for so here it is.

More Punch fun

Here is another video. Enjoy

Fancy Hat Tilda

Tilda is all dressed up to the nines and looks all posh in her pritty hat, perhaps she is going out for dinner, I would suggest the Pigeon and chips! (LOL Joanne, Shaz and Nat!)





I got this lovely Tilda and the lovely bow she is sitting on from http://www.sirstampalot.co.uk/

The flowers were made with a embossing tool and the Stampin' Up! boho blossoms punch, you get all three of these lovely flowers on one punch! and the best thing is they have a stamp to match too ;0) - made the same way as on my video tutorial.



BTW do you want more of these videos?

Wild Rose Studio

On my blog travels I came across a new stamp company called "Wild Rose Studio" and immediately recognised the name of one half of the venture as a lady I have worked with whilst working with Origin Publishing (the magazines I do a little bit of work for). Her designs are toooo cute, she has some adorable dogs, cats, bird, borders and flowers and it is well worth a look! They are clear stamps and priced accordingly so it wont dent the bank balance too much.





I hope Dulcie doesnt mind but I have taken a card off her gallery to show you as I have not got any of these designs (YET)





This cute kitty is soooooo sweet! The flowers on the image are screaming for jewels or glitter to be added. This could sooo be one of my mad cats who are always dashing up a tree.

Here is her website and from there you can shop, be inspired and read her blog too.

Single Colour cards & a little challenge

I havent made one of these for a while and decided to ink up my new Magnolia stamp and make a single colour card. I used the cute tilda blowing hearts and stamped it with Stampin' Up! ink Ruby Red and then used my waterbrush to gently use the ink outline to colour the image in, just in parts. A little paper pricking, punching and flower making and I am done.

This is a really quick and effective way to colour. Why not try it... if you have made a single colour card leave me a message with a link and you can win some stamped images (of this Tilda)

I will close this little challenge in one week.

A little bag I made last night

I made this last night and coloured with my SU inkpads. This is one of the lovely Pollycraft Sharing Sherbert stamps. ADORABLE or what? Look at those eyes! those little wings are cute as can be.

The background paper was the last piece that I made the other day with the Polka Dot Punches set. Wording circle is Craftwork Cards and I made the flower on my flower punches tutorial on yesterdays post.

Very simple, but very cute!

Scallop Punch Video

You tube scallop flower video

Embedding wont work so here is the link above - hated my voice so we have a rather annoying tune over the top and some funny and informative pop ups.

This has taken ages to upload, now I remember why I dont do more! hassle..

Stamp Heaven

WOW talk about good mail day today. I got so much to share.. so much to ink up! Remember a while back I sold a few stamps for my huggabugg fund, well I got those today!! YIPEEEEE lots of lovely bugs ;0)

Then I got the ADORABLE Pollycrafts stamp. OMG these images are to die for.... beautiful! They are out now and I cant wait to have a good play with these... and keep your eyes open for these in Quick Cards Made Easy AND Cardmaking and Papercraft too as I have got a few things lined up with them soon ;0)

I also, last but by no means least, some adorable Magnolia Love Collection from www.sirstampalot.co.uk and I cant wait to ink those up too.

So if I am not back soon you know why, I am playing with all my lovely goodies ;0)

Seems as well as rubber lovers I have twitchers too and you all guessed the bird was a Thrush and I intially thought that too so I think we must all be right. Been racking my brains all afternoon for a name for my new birdie.. He seems to be looking after a certain berry bush in our garden and this is about right for a thrush as I was wikapediaing about them yesterday. The are very teritorial over things like this.

I am currently uploading a punch tutorial to you tube, taking forever and I need to rough edit before I upload. I have another coming but it will have to wait until tomorrow as its taking too long.

Me again

Here is Mr Milo in the snow! He loves it... we took him over the park yesterday and he really enjoyed it.

Here is a card I made using one of the lovely new Penny Black stamps from The Glitter Pot. They have these in stock NOW! I coloured this in with my SU Inkpads.

Any bird lovers out there? Tell us what this bird is? He was outside on our fence for a lot of the day yesterday and believe it or not its very spooky, I have been looking for him all morning and just as I started typing about him he is there now! He is a beautiful bird. Bigger than a starling, he has a real fat chest.

and lastly here is a card I made with a Penny Black Hedgehog. One of the new designs ;0)

More snow photos

Their faces say it all really... FUN!

The S Word

And for once I dont mean Stamps!!

Look what we have.....

We have approx 10 - 12 cm and there is no sign of it stopping. School has been closed YIPEE so Harvey is well pleased. I am too to be truthful as I havent got my car and I wasnt about to walk there especially as there is a lot more forecast.

My New Penny Black stamps have been eased in gently and I have coloured a few in, just need to make some cards so maybe between the snow fun I might get something made with them. remember a while back I sold a load of stamps so I could get my Bellas? Well they havent come yet, whats the betting that they will come today, or I will be carded today so I cant collect them!!

Also anyone a knitter of doggy jumpers? I think Milo needs one!! LOL His poor little tummy is buried in the snow and in Harveys words..

*** WARNING kids one liner ABOUT A DOGS PRIVATE PARTS ***

"Milos poor little nuts are frozen" !!! Kids eh?

Beavers is cancelled and TicTac forsaw the snow warnings and has arranged a meeting just by his house with 10 sledges so if we feel brave at 5pm we're go out for sledging for 1/2 hour this really is the best snow we have had since Harvey has been around so we need to get out and take advantage of it. I am sure I will be updating with lots more pictures.

Take care and wrap up everyone
