Lots to Show!

Still struggling I'm afraid, but have managed to make a couple of cards and here's one of them.....



This is for the Tilda & Co challenge.....I know, I know....I'm late with this one but thought I would have a go anyway as one of my nephews' birthday is coming up soon so thought it would kill two birds with one stone!! The challenge was to use just black and white and I really enjoyed making this. Used William the Goblin and coloured him with Prismas and Sansodor. Paper is from Pink Petticoat printed onto lightweight cardstock, c.s. is Bazzill and ribbon is from Doodlebug. Also used the Magnolia snail and left him white but added some Glamour Dust to his shell. Sentiment is from Autumn Leaves and sticky gems are Papermania.

I'm a member of the Tilda and Friends Forum and we recently did an ATC swap and I received these lovely ones back!

Annie's ATC









Shary's ATC







Sue's ATC



Aren't they gorgeous?!! Thanks Ladies!


I've also received two awards. This one was from Denise, my blogging buddy and fellow DT Member for Stamp Something....



.....and this one from Fran, my Supplies Manager and Advisor!!! She'll know exactly what I mean!!


Thank you so much....I do appreciate you thinking of me when handing out these awards...it really is a great compliment. I'm going to give the Kreativ Blogger Award to Denise because I love her designs and ideas and because it was her birthday last Friday!!!! Hope you had a great day Denise :)

The Blogging with a Purpose award I am giving to Fran because she definitely has a purpose in the blogging world.......to advise me on different makes of stamps and when they become available so that I can spend far too much money!!!! I also think her creations are fabulous!

Last but by no means least, I am giving both awards to Vanessa because I think she needs cheering up at the moment (and I love your cards too!!).

One final thing for this post (sorry it's going on a bit!). All SBS-13 Sisters - me and Vanessa have now handed over the card swap to Jo and Angie so you will be hearing from them with details of a new swap. Please show your support by joining in.

Must get the boys their lunch now.....enjoy the rest of your weekend!

It's Blog Candy Time!

I'VE EDITED THIS MESSAGE SO (HOPEFULLY!) IT WILL REMAIN AT THE TOP OF MY BLOG UNTIL THE COMPETITION IS OVER. PLEASE SCROLL DOWN FOR NEWER POSTS! 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

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

A Quick Magnolia!

This is going to be a very quick posting as I've been suffering from toothache on and off since Friday evening and it is now unbearable. I do have an appointment with the Dentist tomorrow so if I can just get through tonight I'll be OK! Don't really feel like listing all the details for this one, so if you have any questions, just ask.
