Told ya...

As I said in my last post...there will be a few cards with my new stamps lol...
I am having so much fun....
I have tried to do different colour combos and use different embellishments....but I always end up comming back to buttons...craft ones or Caburys I really don't mind (as long as i don't mix them up!! lol)

What do you think?











Thanks for looking...have a wonderful xmas!!!

I love having new stamps lol!!!

I really do!!!!
Well I have had 2 deliveries of The Greeting Farm stamps so expect to see a few cards from them over the next few weeks lol!!
Today I made one for the Sketch Saturday Challenge ...and quixotic challenge
I am sorry but I don't have any circles so I had to use a square (don't worry I have some Nestabilities on order now lol!!) however I have stayed to the sketch apart from that!! I have used some lace ribbon and it's anything but christams which means I can enter it into the charisma cardz challenge! 

Hope you like it!!






As I said, the image is from The Greeting farm and the sentiment too..
The card is Stampin' up!
I have also used some pink dew drops to look like bubbles!!

Let me know what you think!!!

What a day!!

Well boys n girls...are you ready for Christmas??
I was until the events of yesterday... Went to visit the parents and ended up in quite a smash...some idiot (I do have stronger words but not for blogging lol!!!) didn't keep his eye on the road at took us off it...after LOT'S of waiting around a very nice RAC man brought us home...
We are ok... doc said it's whiplash and I have bruised my chest and Sam has bruised the muscles in her shoulders!!! So other than feeling like we have done 10 rounds with Mike Tyson we will survive!!

Anyway it did give me some time to finish off this card for Sweet Stamping Challenge and Pollycraft Challenge. I love this image...I think I will be using it a lot lol!!





I brought the image from quixotic 
The papers and cards are all from Stampin'up!
Ribbon is stampin up too!!
I have added a butterfly charm and punched some flowers

Thanks for looking xx
