This is where it all happens.....

Ok, so im not so lucky as many of you, that have your own craft rooms, i have a corner of my back room, but its MY corner and MY haven!

Good Morning Bloggypeeps, hope you are all well! It is a horrid day here, sooo rainy! Went out on a little shopping trip with my mum yesterday, to a little drapery shop not far from where I live, had never been there before but it was quite a find, brought some ribbon and loads of buttons. Am using some of the buttons on the cards i'm uploading today.....

This weeks Docrafts Tilda challenge

Tracy's Challenge is to make a Weather themed Tilda card, i've gone for a sunny day theme - anyone remember them!!!

I had an inkling i was going to enjoy this blogging lark, but what i didnt bargin for was how much i'd enjoy drooling over the masses of yummy backgrounds........i am on my 3rd one in less than a week!!

heigh-ho, heigh ho......

its back to work i go!! Kids are back to school tomorrow, and i am back to work, shame, i've had such a lovely week off! Not sure what is worse - the early mornings or the being able to play with my new blog or do crafting whenever i fancy.

Hope you've all had a lovely weekend. xx

This is my card for this weeks Penny Black challenge, over on the Docrafts site, which is being hosted by the lovely Julie, and the challenge is to make a card using a PB stamp, bright colours (well mine are bright-ish!), and spotty paper. These lush papers are a download from Zoe Pearn (thanks for the info, Pickle), also used MS border punch, the ribbon, flower and button from stash and the "Friend" wording is cut from a section of a c'bug embossing folder.

three for the boyzzzzz!!

Good Afternoon Bloggypeeps!

Hope you are all having an ok Thursday, it is a cold, wet and miserable day here. Took the kids to town this morning (undies shopping, although a couple of packs of white card did fall into my basket in Tesco, hehehe) We had planned to take the dog for a good long run in the woods today, but the lousy weather knocked that one on the head, so stayed in the warm and dry to play with my new blog! Dont know what im going to do when i go back to work next week.....

Friendship swap card

This is my card for this months Friendship swap over on Docrafts

woohooo, getting the hang of this now

.......and isnt it addictive, i've been sitting here for the last 45mins saying to myself, "oh i'll have 5 more mins then i'd better go and wash up" and guess what - i'm still here, lol! Will have a quick tidy round then a bit of crafting time, the kids are busy doing there own things today!

Tilda Stitched Up challenge card

I am hosting this weeks Tilda challenge, over on the Docraft site, and the idea is to make a Tilda card, featuring some form of stitching. My stitching was created on the page plus program, by drawing a box, and then changing it from a solid line to look like a running stitch.

oh heck, i hope im doing this right! Well after months of uuhming and aaaring i've finally taken the plunge into blogland, all hints tips and suggestions will be very welcome!!
