Gotta love a pair of denim dungarees!

Hi all....its me again! Its the fourth post of the week, so you can really tell that I'm off work, lol! More decorating has been going on today too, and my stairs and hallway are no longer an unpleasant shade of yellow but now "Cosy" by Sanctuary which is a nice light, airy neutral shade.........and as well as my DIY tales I also have another card to share with you.

 

Fell in love with this little fella straight away, its his cheeky face and the dungarees. I have used the trusty promarkers to colour in. The papers are from Bo Bunny and Best Creation inc. all layered onto Kraft. The buttons were part of candy win from my lovely friend Sue, and the twine is from Homebase. The sentiment is my own work.

I would like to enter this card into these challenges:
here come the boys - buttons
simon says stamp - anything goes
cupcake craft - boys
qkr stampede - one for the boys

heading off  to bed very shortly, so thanks for popping by and i'll catch up with you all tomorrow xx

"Sew Special"....did you see what I did there!

Hello to you all, so how was your day? All good here as I'm having a few days off work this week for "Mummy-time"......however as the boy has spent every daylight hour since Saturday on the local football field and my wee girly is busy revising for the GCSE  exams she is taking next week, I have had just myself to entertain! The hubby and I are doing a bit of redecorating on our stairs and hallway, but he has been busy with other things too - so more craft time for me!!!

 

So for todays card its a very sweet Tilda image which is coloured with the promarkers. The papers are from Graphic 45 and Lucy Cromwell. The border bunch is from Martha Stewart. The pearls are from Meiflower, the ribbon from my local haberdashery and the thimble charm was found in my Mum's stash!! The sentiment is my own work too.

Hi all....its me back again, have managed a bit of crafting time this afternoon, so I thought I'd share a bit of what I've been up too.

 

This super-de-doper-de cute fairy is from Di's Digi designs and she has been with me for a while, so I thought it was time to dust her off again. She is coloured with promarkers and a bit of fairy sparklyness. The papers are from Helz Cuppleditch special delivery and a Me to you stack. The flowers are a Joycraft die and the pink bling and ribbon are from my stash. The layout is my take on a sketch, which i'll come to in a mo.

Apologies for the ropey quality of the photo - batteries in my camera are flat and I'm having trouble tracking down some decent lithium ones for it, so have had to rely on the camera on my phone...grrrr!

Recipe time with The Cutie Pies!

Hi to you all, hope your holiday weekend has gone well. After spending the best part of yesterday dragging everything out of our "big" shed, sorting out into a much more orderly fashion and then put back in such a way that whenever the hubby starts a sentence with "where's my......." it wont mean a lot of shuffling of boxes! Today has been a much more relaxed day!

 

Anyway, its time for a new challenge with The Cutie Pies, our theme is a

3,2,1 recipe challenge

that is 3 embellies, 2 papers and 1 super cute Image
