Some more Comic Relief!

Just back from picking up the kids from nursery and took some pics of the little kids with their red noses, they are lovely so thought I would share them with you gorgeous girlies to ooh and aah over lol

the little darling insisted on me wearing Jay Jay's wig and nose so they could take a photo of me..........................hmmm why do we love kids again????

Comic Relief

Happy Red Nose Day all you gorgeous girlies!!! Nothing cardy to share today as I spent last night starting one of the cross stitch kits I got at the SECC last week, but I thought I would share some pics of Lily that I took this morning. For school they were to make themselves look different so she is wearing here pyjamas to school and has 8 ponytails in her hair!! She was so excited to be wearing her pyjamas out of the house lol

And now for an arty farty shot to try and get the effect of all the ponytails lol

Hope you're all having a fabbylicious red nose day!

First mothers day card of the year lol

Second card of the day is for the challenges at Lili of the Valley (mothers day card) and Papertake Weekly (sketch by DawnyP)

The image is a Sugar Nellie coloured with PMs (haha surprise!), paper is from stash don't know where its from, ribbon is certainly celery by StampinUp! The flowers are a mix of makes and the brad is from my stash. The wee envelope charm is one I bought at the craft fair last week, it has a wee heart on one side and sent with love on the other (aww cute) The sentiment is a peel off which I don't use much these days but I have a full sheet of mothers days ones so I thought I might as well use them!

Mojo Monday #77

Hello gorgeous girlies! Found some time today for some crafting at last, seems like ages since I had any time to do anything!!

What a lovely simple sketch at Mojo Monday, I did enjoy making this card. Tilda is coloured with promarkers, papers are by Laura Ashley, ribbon and gems from stash, flowers are papermania with punched flowers in top, the centers are punched circles embossed on the back to make them rounded. I was going to put a sentiment on the top right hand corner but I have a feeling I would muck it up lol

sugar nellie challenge and blog candy winner

Good evening gorgeous girlies here I am finally getting round to actually announcing the winner of the blog candy lol Lily picked the winner at 6pm, bless her she was so excited to make the draw, we got a drum roll and everything! I wanted to take a picture but the batteries died on me......................typical lol




so without further adoooooo....................the winner is.....................................Enfys!!!!!

Now onto a card!! I think I am just squeezing in at the death to enter this card for the Sugar Bowl Challenge, the challenge this fortnight was to make a Christmas card, now I don't actually have any Xmas Sugar Nellies but I thought that Luvvie could be Christmassy with some festive colour :o) The papers are by Papermania, Luvvie is coloured with the PMs and paper pieced, ribbons from stash, sentiment is an old one and I have no idea where its from. And yep you've guessed it there's that border punch again!! And OMG surely not........is that a white space on the card?? it was hard but the papers stand out better against the white rather than another layer!

Well nighty night girlies, think I am heading off to bed with my book :o)

JCBC # 22

Morning girlies!! Well Monday morning is here again and of course that means DT time over at Just Christmas and Birthday Cards

This weeks sketch is by the fabulous Linda, if you haven't been to Linda's blog before, get yourself over there, she makes fantastic cards, I am really inspired every time I visit there!! My xmas card is made with a set of stamps from SeeD's, there are some really cute angels and fairies in it so I had to have them lol. The papers were scraps so not sure where they came from, scalloped edge cut with Fiskars border punch. The ribbon was a loop in a t-shirt lol Ribbon slider cut with cuttlebug die. There are wee blobs of stickles on the tree and stars :o)

This weeks birthday card is made with a Sugar Nellie stamp called "Strawberry Tea" and is coloured with promarkers. The papers are from the new packs I got yesterday by Dovecraft, and lo and behold the border punch again (get used to it I think it's here to stay lmao). Setiment stamp is Lili of the Valley cut with new label nestie.

I must apologise for the really bad photo quality, I took the piccies at night and had to lighten them a bit as it is so dark and these energy saving lightbulbs are almost as bad as no bulb at all lol

Linda's sketch really was a joy to work with, I hope you will join us over at Just Christmas and Birthday Cards :o)

My blog candy closes at midnight tonight, please come and enter it while you can!
