Happy Birthday Mum

My mum has always warned us she plans to get old disgracefully, We tell her she best pick her home now then so I thought this would be the perfect card. 

A perfect Time To Craft

Well another month gone. When this goes live, I will officially be on my holidays and that means we are in the second half of yet another year...

desert island

Very nearly time for my holidays, I wont exactly be relaxing in the sun in a hammock but at least it is a different 4 walls to look at in the beautiful Yorkshire Dales

Long Summer Day

Oh what a thought a huge pool in the back garden to keep the kids entertained while I relax under a palm tree and sip a cocktail

A freebie from Sweet November Stamps and it really is pushing my comfort here, You may not have noticed but I avoid mermaids like the plaque as I really struggle with under water scenes but it is time to bite the bullet and stop been a baby. So I pulled on my big girls pants and went for it, It didn't actually turn out as totally underwater, but is definitely a sea scene

Mermaid

I totally forgot I had got this stamp free last month until the Sweet November Stamps Newsletter dropped into my inbox and I got his months freebie. I think I felt a little intimidated as I am not very confident with under water scenes but I do love how it turned out

A new month so time for a new challenge over at A Perfect Time To Craft Challenge Blog. As always this is anything goes and this month our sponsors are Dr Digi's and a new sponsor Stampers Delight.

This image is Deirdre's day off by Dr Digi, I love the humour in Dr Digi's images and so felt it would be appropriate to put Deirdre in a comical place which her sunbed and cocktail.

Be a mermaid

Another month over and hopefully we are finally getting back to some form of normal. Here in England we have not been allowed to mix for months but that is starting to ease and I have finally had a cuppa with my mum. Yes we were sat in the garden under a brolly but a step forward is a step forward right. Anyway a new month means a new challenge over at Perfect Time To Craft Challenge Blog and as always the theme is anything goes.

Our sponsor this month is Fred She Said and here is the card I made 

Wizardy Magic

A bit of DT inspiration for you today. Do not forget that there is a new Digi-Choosday Challenge post opened this morning and as always there is a discount code available until midnight GMT today.

The DT brief was to use an image or technique that you have used a lot.

Well it had to be my colouring and a wizardy magic image

Flower Stall

 As a kid I loved watching Bedknobs and Broomstick as was amazed and in awe of the market where they are looking for the spell book. This card was inspired by that market, obviously I have brought it up to the 21st century with the imported plants and the travel mug but you get the general inspirational idea

Sweet November Release

So I woke up to a message asking if I would like to guest design for Sweet November Stamps. Of course I said yes!!! There are 4 vault releases and 1 new release. I literally could not decide which image to use so made a card for each one. So as not to bore you I will only blog one but will share the photos of the others.

This is the one I am blogging

Bashful bun

 

So I can not decide if Peter here is in the bad books and trying to win his lady around with a bunch of carrots, or if if he is trying to romance her, either way she is looking rather bashful about the situation. I am sure you would agree

Polkadoodles Eli

Tuesday so that can only mean one thing. A new Digi-Choosday challenge and discount code is available now. Pop over and claim yours here

The DT brief was to use a critter image and to make a flap for something.

I decided to create this cute slot for a gift card
