Long time no blog :)

I seem to be getting good at this late posting :(
HUGE THANKS to everyone that left messages on my previous post about Dan's birthday xxx THANKYOU...it really does mean a lot xxx
The last few weeks have been quite hectic. I have decided to get married...lol (Obviously to me OH...lol)
I'm now 37..(Not getting any younger...lol) So figured that it was about time i got married! (A reason to have a party...hehe)  Me being the atheist that iam i have opted for a registry office wedding...WAS gonna have quite a large reception afterwards...but then MIL whinged about the date...blah blah...so i cancelled the lot, changed the date for the wedding to december 7th , and instead of paying out a fortune on the reception we are just having a reception in our local pub,... and then taking the kids to Euro disney for 5 days! Last few weeks i have been sorting out dresses, making invites ect...will post pics of invites tomoro!
I forgot to add my card on for last weeks Our creative Corner sketch, which was this one below.

A few weeks back i bought some lili of the Valley stamps , and at last i've had the chance to be able to join in with their challenge....which is 'Four seasons'  I have gone for spring...using this sooo cute image :)


There not even colours that i would normally use, but i acyually liked them together when i had finished.
The little shoes and glasses have been covered with glossy accents.

Just Magnolia Challenge

I decided to enter this weeks JUST MAGNOLIA challenge as i haven’t entered their challenge for a while.

This weeks the challenge is one of Bev’s sketches.

I used the same doodlebug papers  that i used for me last project as this will be given along with the drawer.

This card is very sparkly and blinging…lol

Image coloured with distress ink pads.

Our Creative Corner sketch # 24

It’s thursday which means a new sketch over at OUR CREATIVE CORNER

OCCSC24_-_Designed_by_Jennifer_Meyer_copy This is this weeks sketch!

OCCSC24_-_Designed_by_Jennifer_Meyer_copy I’ve turned the sketch this way for mine :)

I simply adore this image from Mo Manning, so i just had to use it again.

I’ve made lots of these drawer thingies before but usually i do them with 4 drawers,and i haven’t done one with an easel card on top either.This time however i have made this one as a gift so wanted it to be a decent size. The whole drawer is 8” x 8” in size and 2” deep.

 

The top ,base,sides and drawer front have all been ‘reinforced’ with chipboard so it’s actually quite sturdy.

I didn’t add on flowers ect as i wanted it to be able to lie quite flat as the purpose of it is to be used as a drawer. I guess i could have added flowers ect to the top, but i kinda liked it plain looking. I have added acetate over the image.

The papers are all doodlebug (Have had them years) I figured it was about time i started using some of me 12x12s…lol I never ever use me 12x12s for anything other than scrapbooking,but as i never seem to get the chance to scrap and me piles of 12 x 12s gets bigger all the time i figured that it was about time that i started using some .

Image has been coloured with prisma pencils.

Why not take a LOOKSIE at all the fab creations that have been made by the other girls! ….You could even join in with the challenge :)

Such a long time since i was here :)

Hi Everyone :)

Been MIA due to no internet plus going on holiday. But at long last iam back. Have been creating a few things and colouring loads of images. Bought myse;f a load more prismacolour pencils as i didn’t have a lot of shades, now that i have a wider range they are once again my fave colouring medium…haha! Will i ever just have one fave…..(Nah probably not…lol)

Thought i would join in with a couple of challenges:)

The first being Mo’s Challenge

I bought a few new images…they are so…so sweet, remind me of the Chloe monster on holiday…lol

This weeks challenge is beach/summer…2 of the new images that i bought fit this theme and i could’t decide which to use so i used both images and made 2 cards…haha

How cute are those images…Love them!

I also made another card with one of mo’s images…it isn’t for the challenge ,but thought i’d show it anyways.

 

I also decided to join in with the first ever challenge over at Kenny K’s Krafty Girlz

The challenge is pastels. I actually used me precious Pheobe paper…*Shock horror*

Not sure what was going when i coloured the right side of the hat…lol But figured i would leave it as it was,rather than colour another.

Another quick make with a new sarah kay stamp that i got :) So love me sarah kay stamps ,but just don’t use them nearly enough:(

…and that’s all for now…lol

Will post some holiday pics over next couple of days…and will hopefully have some more creations to show.
