Lolly break.




Here's my beautiful Grandaughter we were rubber stamping outside and playing bubbles. Just managed to keep her still for about three minutes, while she had a lolly break.


Here's the card I made the other night its Gorjuss meets Sheena Douglas. I masked and used Sheena's stamp for the background. Used water colour pencils added flowers and a piece of tulle.


It's the first time I have played with this stamp. Hope you like it.

Wow its weekend again. Hasn't it been nice to have some sun all week. Haven't managed to get much crafting done this week, have been doing alot of the dreaded housework. Plus we have had our little Grandaughter five days this week.


She has worn her Nanna out playing bubbles and hide and seek. She as had a lovely day playing and rubber stamping outside. Lovely paint covered hands and a big smile. She's only just turned two but she's getting the hang of it.


I thought I would show you another couple of quick cards I made while I was off line.

Spring is really on the way. The sun has been shining the bees are buzzing about and doesn't it make you feel great. I thought I'd share with you a couple of cards with you that I made while my internet was down.


The first one was made with a Penny Black stamp called Flying stars. I used a Circa blackground flower stamp to make the background Papers.


The second card was made using Joanna Sheens Blue Tit rubber stamp, a new Joy die cut stencil and a cuttlebug folder.

Special 60th Birthday







Hi I was asked a few weeks ago to make a special 60th Birthday card. It was for a professional fisherman. This was what I came up with, with thanks to my friend for the loan of the stamps. I am pleased to say that he was thrilled to bits with it. The photo doesn't really show how the fish were glazed on the inside of the card. I painted the fish with water colour pencils.

At Last thank goodness

At last thank goodness I'm back on line. It's been a bit of a struggle fingers crossed it carries on working. Will try to post some pictures later.
