All The Trimmings!

OMG do you know there are only 69 days to Christmas?! Well, I am not good at doing things in advance, I always have the best intentions, but usually they never work out and it's a last minute MAD dash before they close the shops on Xmas Eve! Trouble is I NEVER know what to buy folks! So, for my cards (last year I sent bought ones shock horror), I have made my very first Xmas card of the year...and I loved it!

Yesterday I went to a new shop that's just opened not too far from me, it's called ACTION. Anyway...WOW is all I can say, they had some fab crafty stuff including these gorgeous papers I bought! So that inspired me to do a Christmas card for today's inspiration post on Little Miss Muffet Stamps Facebook Group. This is Swings 'n Slides All the Trimmings (LOVE HER) by Pollycraft, you can buy her in the Little Miss Muffet Stamps Store!

I coloured her with Copics (note to self...or hubby...ask Santa for more Copics), papers are from 6x6 Xmas Pad from Action, Twine is from The Ribbon Girl...finished with pearls and doodles and that's it...all the trimmings!

Reminder...dig out the Xmas CD!

Feeling a bit "pensive"...

Hey peeps!

I've not been feeling well over the last week...so my crafting has taken a back seat. Also, little Darcie hasn't been too grand either, so the worry of that has taken it's toll on my creative abilities too. I am behind with my DT duties, so this card is a double whammy...inspiration for the Little Miss Muffet Stamps Facebook Group and also for this week's Passion for Promarkers Challenge...DOODLE.

This is Celeste Amberglow Waiting...she's just like how I feel at the moment, "pensive".  Lots to think about I suppose. I'm a worrier so I do a lot of thinking! She's available as a digital stamp at Little Miss Muffet Stamps...how can you resist?!

Autumn Apples

Hiya peeps! Just sharing my card today using Polka Dot Pals Peggy and Feline Sleeping from Little Miss Muffet Stamps...

I've been inspired by my apple tree for this card...it has apples on it at the moment! I love apples! Shes' coloured with Copics. Thanks for your visit today :)

Patchwork and Promarkers

Good morning all!

I have been AWOL for a few weeks...actually I've been visiting friends and family back in the UK. Sooooo no crafting or blogging...BUT now I'm back and kicking off with a new challenge at Passion for Promarkers. This week it's my choice of theme and I've gone for PATCHWORK! Interpret this how you will, but you must include some kind of patchwork design and of course use your Promarkers, Flexmarkers etc. Here's my card...

The sweet stamp is from Lili of the Valley...I don't know if they still do this one as I've had it a while. She's coloured with Promarkers. I've used some scraps of old Dovecraft papers to make my patchwork, and added a few pearls, raffia mesh and flower to finish it all off. 

We're kindly sponsored by Little Claire Designs who are offering a "quirky quilts" paper pack to the lucky winner! Why not give it a try...we'd love to see your creations!

Monster Birthday!

Hey folks, hope you're all doing ok!

It was my birthday today...was as the day is almost over! I've been out for a yummy meal tonight, AND I had a huge ice cream for dessert! YUM! So my card for the Little Miss Muffet Facebook Group inspiration is a little late, the ice cream won I'm afraid! Better late than never, here it is...

Obviously it had to be a birthday card! This is a Pollycraft image! For all the super stamp range from Pollycraft and lots more pop by Little Miss Muffet Stamps! Monsters are coloured with Copics and the background is doodled and coloured with Copics. Thanks for popping by xx

Happy Hat!

Hello folks!

I'm sharing this little cutie today...he's called Swings 'n Slides Winner by Pollycraft, available in rubber from Little Miss Muffet Stamps...

Very cute, and a joy to colour! I just love his hat! I've used Copics on him, and added cute doodles too, of course! The papers are from my scrap box. Raised words are done using Cuttlebug embossing folder.

We have some festivities going on at Little Miss Muffet Stamps today, to celebrate the new DoveArt release! Check it out on the blog HERE!

Planes, trains and automobiles!

Hello folks! Thanks for all the well wishes from my last post...everyone is fine...thankfully it's just the bricks and mortar that took a beating! I have a feeling that the repairs will take some time though...

Ok, today we have a fab new challenge at Passion for Promarkers... TRAVEL/TRANSPORT is the theme chosen by our lovely Marie! Here's my card...

I've used a cute little image from Lili of the Valley...do you know it's been ages since I actually used a rubber stamp...coloured of course with my Promarkers! Anyway, this one was hiding amongst my stash and was perfect for the challenge! I've gone CAS as usual...just a bit of doodling and handmade star! Hope you like...

Our challenge this week is sponsored by Letraset who are kindly giving away a pack of 12 promarkers to the lucky winner! Join in using your Letraset markers and you could win them for yourself!!!
