Soggy Sunday!!

Well, we survived the high winds and rain yesterday. Today started off well....sunshine and no winds....however, it's now started raining again!! Guess the Summer is over! Tony has popped up his Mum's with the boys so thought I would make the most of the time and post this card which I made yesterday morning. Must apologise for the poor picture, however, it is so dark here at the moment, found it difficult to find enough light to take the photo.




The image is H & S and was a RAK and I've coloured her with Promarkers. Did a bit of paper pricking around the edges before mounting her onto blue card. The plain and patterned card are both Pink Petticoat. The sentiment is a digital download and again, has been mounted onto the same blue card. Finally I added a little embellishment I made myself. Not sure what you call it but got the idea from Jose who gave me the pins and some of the beads - the blue beads are from Craft Central. Oops, nearly forgot, sticky gems are from Papermania!


Really hope to get back to blogging properly, however, got to catch up on my college work first. Thanks for stopping by.

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...
