Happy 70th Birthday Mum ...

My final guest spot over at Cute Card Thursday and this week 'Anything Goes'

Thank you so very much Caroline for having me this month along with the rest of your fabby team.

I hope you have all been good this year and Father Christmas gave you plenty of crafty goodies to play with.

Today I want to share this simple make which I cut out on my Silhouette, threaded with ribbon,

some little butterflies, gems & pearls.

The doily is a download from the fabulous Birds Cards, thank you so much.

Thank you for all your support this year and thank you to all

the challenges that I craft for including the guest spots, my pleasure.

Well I hope to see you all again next year!

Wishing you a Very Crafty New Year

Congratulations ...

This week at Cute Card Thursday we want to Celebrate with our new challenge.

I made this card back in the Summer which was requested by my hairdresser for her best friend

whom are my neighbours and we have known them since I was at school.  

Clean and simple with names & dates was the request, I don't normally do requests but

 I just couldn't refuse.

Matting & layering on my good old Silhouette.  I also used the Silhouette to write the words

using the metallic markers.

The stamp is a favourite of mine from Indigo Blu. Heat embossed with silver.

Finished off with some butterflies, gems & a gorgeous bit of sparkle.

I would like to enter this into the following challenge -

Wednesday Creative Inspiration - Anything Goes (I Won)!

(Sorry the photo doesn't really show the gorgeous embossing & bling, good old British weather)!

Thank you for visiting my blog today, take care love

Happy Christmas ...

Another Guest spot for Cute Card Thursday and this time I want to share this little cutie.

The challenge this week is Christmas so nice & easy.

I have used the gorgeous House Mouse Christmas project book & cd rom for this one.

The image, papers & sentiment are all included just added some red card for layering with some 

snowflakes too.  Completely hand stitched and another large card blank.

It doesn't show too well on the photographs but all the trees sparkle along with the falling snow.

A picture of the inside and another image from the cd rom.

Why not come and play along with us this week.

Little Holly ...

Good morning crafters, today & for the rest of this year (wow) I am the Guest Designer at 

Cute Card Thursday and the challenge today is titled 'Eternal Flame'

so I have dug out this little cutie as I hadn't inked her since last year.

I have used once again the beautiful papers from the gorgeous 

Nitwit Collections kit 'Holiday Bouquet' sooo pretty.

Also corners, pearls, ribbon, button, charm, flowers & distressing.

I have mat & layered on my Silhouette & hand stitched.
