Don't Look Heather!!!

If you're visiting my blog, then please avert your eyes Heather! This card is the one I've made for my SBS-13 swap.....I know I'm late but what with being ill etc., I just managed to finish it today so intend on posting it tomorrow.

And a closer view of the main picture......

I've used Tilda Butterfly and Tulip Grass stamps from Magnolia coloured with Prismas and Sansodor, with some Glamour Dust added to her wings and the butterfly. The background is coloured with some inks I bought from Create and Craft ages ago. Tilda has been fixed with foam pads to bring her forward a little. The whole image has been mounted onto Bazzill c.s. and the paper used is from Blonde Moments. Flowers are from Poppicrafts and the brads are Papermania. The sentiment is a Mini Message from Craftwork Cards.

Had a busy day today running here, there and everywhere but had some good news. Lewis got his school report which was excellent! Also had a Parents' Evening for Sam and was told by the Teacher that she had "high hopes for him"!! What a couple of clever lads I have!!!

Have also been working on a little Easter project for my boys which I should be able to share with you tomorrow......just got to get a few more sweeties to put in them and then photograph it. Hope you're having a great Wednesday and will be back again tomorrow :)

I've Been Busy!!!

It's funny what happens to me when I lose my internet connection so I can't do any blogging.........I end up doing some crafting!!!! Well that's what happened yesterday afternoon and evening....my internet connection kept flicking on and off probably due to all the bad weather we experienced. Not quite so windy today but the rain is continuous! I actually finished my Easter Egg bags yesterday whoo hoo!!! Well, I say finished, I've got three more to put together but I have coloured the label and everything but I need to go to Asda and buy some more creme eggs and I'm not going anywhere today because I'm due a parcel delivery....hopefully, my camera! I hope you're ready for these photos....I was just going to put one picture on but thought hey, I had to suffer making them, they should suffer looking at them!!! The photos aren't very good I'm afraid and I'm proud to say that not one chocolate egg was harmed during the making of these bags......in ot...

Last of the Whipper Snappers (for the moment!!)

Morning all......is it morning already?!! Had a very hectic night.....got woken up at 1.30 am with the sound of vomit bouncing off the landing carpet!! Sam wasn't very well and didn't quite make it to the bathroom so spent most of the early hours of this morning trying to clean the landing carpet, the carpet in his bedroom, washing bedclothes and cleaning him up!!! Eventually got to bed at 4.30 am then was woken at 9.15 this morning by Sam asking me if I was getting up because his tummy was empty and he was hungry!!! Got to love 'em!! Anyway, at least he's feeling better. Got to try and phone the Carpet Cleaner in a minute and order Sam a new mattress as his is ruined....oh the fun of being a Mother!! Back to business now, here's a card I made during the week with one of my new Whipper Snapper arrivals. I don't know how often I will use this stamp but it was a case of "ooh, it's so sweet, I've just got to have it!!" I've coloured the snai...
