OUR LITTLE LAMB


Hello! So sorry I have'nt been in blogland for a good while but I have taken up an old hobby and will share pics soon :) but until then I thought I'd share the card that got me a runners up prize of $25 worth of Nitwit collections downloads in issue 96 of Simply Cards & Papercraft(I'm on page 23). I was chuffed to bits when I got the email saying I was a runner up and had my youngest sons help deciding which collections to choose because I loved them all lol. The paper's are LUSH!

Paper's,Image's and sentiments are all Nitwits which were free with a mag and just added my Handstitching to finish :)

Well eventhough I have'nt blogged anything for a while, I have been busy making lots of cards and other things ;) which I will share with you all shortly...

Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving a comment.I love to hear from you :) xx

JUST WHEN I THOUGHT I WAS FINISHED...


Making christmas cards, my sis asks me to make some for her lol... so I have'nt had time to join in with any challenges. So I thought I'd share another christmas card I made a couple of weeks ago to send to one of my other half's nephew's. I was in a Kraft phase when making some of my christmas card's and I really liked how well it went with the Papermania 'At Christmas Time' collection which is what I used for this card along with some ribbon from my stash, a Papermania sentiment,Anita's peel-offs and Handstitching.
Well I hope you all have a fab weekend whatever you have planned, we're taking the boy's ice-skating which will be fun ( I just hope I don't fall flat on my bum like the last time lol) :)
