One For The Fellas! (or maybe two!)

Good morning all! Got a busy day again today so this will be a very quick posting.

The challenge on PTW this week is to make a male card. Think I've just got in by the skin of my teeth!! Decided to keep the card very simple and ended up doing two because they were so quick!







For this one I used a Bella image I had received in a RAK and coloured him with Brushables, he was then mounted onto Bazzill c.s. and rounded the corners. The base of the card was covered in a blue Bazzill Bling c.s. with some Doodlebug ribbon stuck to the bottom. I rounded the bottom corners of the card, used a circular sentiment from Craftwork Cards which I layered onto red Bazzill c.s. and added a couple of brads from my stash.




With this card, I again used a Bella image from a RAK and coloured it with Brushables, then added the Woodware sentiment "Cheers" to the bottom corner and mounted onto Bazzill c.s. I covered half of the base card with blue Bazzill Bling c.s. run through the Cuttlebug with the Spots & Dots embossing folder, rounded the bottom corners of the card, fixed some ribbon from my stash across the join and finally, added a couple of Bazzill brads.

Must dash now and hope you have a good day!

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

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.

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
