Hi, here a couple of my Valentine makes,again used some inspiration from Uniko and Bevs stamps too. I like this one so I am going to give it to hubby.


This was my second make, I offered it to my son for his girl friend but he said it wasn't BIG enough!

This weekend I did intend to start sorting out for my week away with the girls in March but that hasn't happened because every time I look at all my stuff I despair…..I think I might need a van.
Hope Jules approves of my hearts??
Oh well maybe next weekend. Hope you have all had a good one now its nearly over xx

Relaxed Saturday



 I am having a very lazy day today, a bit of crafting an maybe some baking. I made this card this morning using my newly arrived stamps from Uniko, and some inspiration from Bevs blog. Not as good as hers but I am quite please with it.




This card I started a couple weeks ago when I used my embossing paste. Finished off this morning and have also started to make a valentine card for hubby so post that one later or tomorrow. We are out to dinner tonight rounds some friends so looking forward to that. Have a good weekend one and all x

Karting Sunday



 My son got a go-kart for christmas so I went to watch him have a go today, this picture is actually Dad as he of course had to have a go too.



 This one is Ben, he done very well as his first time out in Kart only a few seconds behind the fastest. Had a small problem with kart half way through but luckily the workshop fixed it. So he was off again, loving it.




And of course I had my day scrapping yesterday this page was from the class kit. I managed a few more pages in an album my daughter bought me for Christmas but plenty of chatting to all the lovely ladies and some cake.

Christmas Pudding Cake



 No I didn't make it, Heston did, and its very yummy but I am not counting the calories.



 Here are a couple of cards I made, followed an idea from google images. The stamps are clearly besotted, oh and yes I did order some new ones from the new releases yesterday.




I am having a scrapping day Saturday so hopefully will have a page to show on Sunday. Have a good week everyone xx

Second Post of The Day



Well here is two cards I made today using my embossing paste. I firstly coloured the paste with my shimmer powder stuff! This spotty one I used a plastic stencil quite pleased with the result the card is for a very special friend who had a mastectomy just before christmas and I am hoping to go and see her on Tuesday for a catch up. She has been brilliant.


This one I used a metal Stencil, last time I tried I messed up, but this one seems to have worked ok. The backing paper idea and sewing inspiration came from my lovely blogging friend Jules 'Always With a heart'. She is fab.

More Cards





Some more cards I made over the holidays for some friends birthdays.
















This One I copied an idea from google images, its ok but I thought it was a bit bare on the inside its try folded, I put a sentiment on the inner fold. so it didn't look quite as bare.

Well I am going to play with embossing paste today I think, although I also need to have a sort out for next Saturdays Scrap bags crop. Back Later maybe x

Finally Managed some Me time



Happy New Year to you all.

I managed at last today to do some crafting . Here are some thank you cards I made, all along the same design with some slight changes on each one.




I firstly embossed some white card using my new big shot pro, slowly working out what plates I need. Then used some glimmer mist to spritz them. Lastly I used my new leave CBS stamps and dies my daughter brought me for Xmas.





Oh and some wash tape on some of them.

I have got some more to show so will be back soon x
