Easel Bunny

Thought I would show you a card that we made yesterday in my MS card class. Another oldish stamp just having it's first airing, not sure if this is Candyfloss or Marshmallow.

Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Easter Pansy

Thought I would share with you a quick card I recently made, another stamp that has never seen the light of day but I love it and think it will now get a little over-exposed for the foreseeable future.

Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Blowing in the wind

I am determined this year to use stamps that I have bought over the years and that have never seen the light of day. This is one in particular, I thought at the time that it would be good for backgrounds, not sure now, might be good for a beach scene. Anyway, it's by Great Impressions.

Thanks for looking.

New Home

I recently made a new home card using my cricut and thought I would show you what I made with the negative lettering. I was quite pleased with the result and I thought ideal for a young trendy couple moving of even a fella. I never throw anything away.

Have a great week and thanks for looking.

Something Sweet

"Sweet for my sweet, sugar for my honey"

Hi there, now who remembers that song? It just sprang to mind when I saw the Penny Black challenge and now I can get it out of my head. Anyway, here's my entry for that challenge. I have used my ever faithful cat and this time he is holding a bar of chocolate, made from fimo, my 'something sweet' touch.

Have a great weekend and thanks for looking

Sketch and Stash No. 26

Hi everyone, Happy New Year to you all.

Like many of you I have made various crafty new year's resolutions, one being that I buy no more patterned/designer papers, and I'm doing well, we are four days into 2010 and I haven't bought any.....lol, and there have been a couple of opportunities I might add. Anyway enough waffle, here's my entry into the Sketch and Stash challenge no. 26. The main image is one of my oldies and its by Penny Black, the sentiments are from Imagine That and Hobby Art.

Thanks for looking and have a great week.
