Debbie's Blog Candy and a Sketch from Katharina

Another sunny day in Weymouth again today even though it did rain during the night. However, not so sunny inside the house(!)....plumbing is still not fixed as the ordered part didn't turn up - just wondering how long this is going to go on for as the Plumber goes on holiday in a couple of weeks!!


Anyway, back to the crafting......this card is one I made after seeing a sketch which Katharina put on her blog (it's not the PTW one....still working on that!) and when I'd finished it, thought it would be ideal for Debbie's birthday blog candy. Debbie's challenge is to make a girly card with ribbon on it and this is Katharina's sketch.....





Always have to think a bit if there's more than two layers! but ended up with this.....



I've used my new Penny Black stamp which arrived last week and coloured the hedgehog with Brushables, adding some Glamour Dust to the flowers. The sentiment is from the Just Hatched set at Papertrey Ink and the tiny hearts are from Papermania. Paper and ribbon is from Blonde Moments, c.s. is Bazzill and mirricard is from my stash. Slots were made using an SU punch.


Will be in and out all day today so hope to get some crafting time in later this evening. Hope the sun is shining where you are!

jo this is stunning.....I find it really difficult with all the layers, people seem do do the challenges so quick, and yet it can take me a week to think about it !!

WILL ALSO BE ADDING PHOTOS OF ENTRIES AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS POST FOR PEOPLE WHO DO NOT HAVE A BLOG. As promised, it's blog candy time. There are three reasons for me doing this. (1) My counter has passed 16,000 hits - wow! can't believe that! and I would like to say thank you to everyone who visits my blog.....would never have dreamed I would have so many visitors since I began blogging at the beginning of December last year! (2) It's my birthday in just over a week and (3) had some fantastic news - Tony (my husband) is coming home for good!! For those of you who don't know, Tony has been working in Australia for the past 15 months and we have only seen him twice in that time.....the last time being at the beginning of October last year! He should be home within a matter of weeks - he's given me the date of 10 June but

Happy Blogoversary To Me!!

Hope you all have a great day!

Fancy a Magnolia?

Firstly, I'd like to say thank you to everyone who has visited my blog over the last six weeks. It's amazing, I really didn't think I would get so many hits when I started out. It really is appreciated. Now to the blog candy......I've thought long and hard about this and decided to do something a little bit different. The reason being, I think even though we enjoy making cards, we're all so busy with birthdays, challenges, and everyday life, so I thought I'd make it simple. I admit to being a bit(?) of a nosey old moo!! so what I would like you to do is send a link to a photo of your craft space. Don't worry how tidy(?)/untidy, small, big, whatever, your space is. Could be a room (I'd kill for one!), a corner of a room (like mine!), a dining room table. It doesn't matter, just add a comment with a link to your blog and if you haven't got a blog, then e-mail me a photo (my e-mail link is in my Profile). Just to get you started, here's my space
