Oh I Do Like To Be Beside The Seaside!!!

Excuse my singing....good job you can't hear it!! The challenge on Tilda and Friends ATC this week is Beside the Sea and as I received a new beach scene stamp this week, couldn't wait to ink it up!



Used my cute little Tilda in her bathing costume and hat and used Brushables to colour her. Added some Glamour Dust to her wings and some Glossy Accents to her rubber ring. She has been cut out and fixed to the beach scene with foam pads. The background stamp is from High Hopes and again, I have coloured this with Brushables and added some Liquid Applique to the clouds to make them appear fluffy....you might get a better view in this picture.....

....and basically, that was it, very quick and simple!

There are a couple more things I would like to share with you. One is a gorgeous card I received from Heather.





I'm afraid my photo doesn't do it justice as it's even more gorgeous IRL. It was packed full of wonderful stamped images.....sorry forgot to photograph them......so thank you so much Heather!


The other thing I wanted to share is this......






Sam had a birthday party to go to yesterday and you'll never guess what the theme was!!! Anyway he let me take a quick photo of him before he left......what a cool dude!! Sorry about the state of the garden behind him but I'm leaving that job for Tony when he gets home lol!!


Off to get some lunch now and then off to get a bit of shopping. Enjoy your Sunday

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...

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...
