For my card I have used this pre~coloured digi from Pink Gem Designs called Butterfly Chloe. The papers are from my scraps box.....I think they are First Edition Papers called 'Bird Song'.

Cute Christmas....

Good morning everyone.
I hope you are all well and looking forward to the weekend.
Today is the start of a new challenge over at
Winter Wonderland 
Our theme this week is
Cute Christmas
And here is my DT card

Our sponsor this week is 
Lili Of The Valley

who are offering our lucky winner a £10 voucher.
Please pop over to the main challenge blog and take a look at all the 'Cute' creations the rest of the DT have made for your inspiration.
I made my card using a pre~coloured card topper that I bought from Craftwork Cards a long time ago..... I think the bunny is called Warren Rabbit but I can't quite remember. The papers were also from Craftwork Cards. The border punch is from Martha Stewart and the pearls as always are from The Hobby House. The sentiment is computer generated. I completed my card by adding some Stickles and some Liquid Pearls.

Thank you for taking the time to drop by.
Have a great day.

Just A Note.....

Good morning everyone.
I hope you are all well.
Today I would like to share another of my giant peg note holders with you......but this time I'm keeping this one.......
I have chosen to use blues and these gorgeous LOTV papers particularly as these are the colours I have picked to decorate my new craft room when we move house......eventually!!!!!
From The Side

From The Front

The papers are from LOTV and I just love them, they are called 'Petal Fresh' and they are so pretty.  I have added some blue chalk around the edges of the peg  and the flowers are from various different places mainly The Hobby House and Wild Orchid Crafts. The pins are from my stash and I finished off by spraying some Glimmer Mist over the flowers although you can't really see it in these photographs.

I would like to enter my peg into the following challenges:~
Ruby's Rainbow ~ # 60 ~ Vintage Papertake Weekly  ~ Anything Goes Creative Creations ~ # 16 ~ Monochromatic Challenges 4 Everybody ~ # 26 ~ Anything Goes That Craft Place ~ Monochrome Ladybug Crafts ~ Something Floral

Best Friends.....

Good morning everyone.
I hope you are all well.
Today I have another card to share.

The image is from a decoupage sheet by Sarah Kay....I have loads of these sheets and they always come in handy when I haven't got time to colour an image and I need a quick card.
The papers and the sentiment are from LOTV and the ribbon and pearls are from The Hobby House.
I think these are my new favourite colours and I just love these beautiful LOTV papers.

All Grown Up!!!!

Good afternoon everyone.
I hope you are all well.
Today it is my daughter Brogan's 18th Birthday.

I can't believe where the years have gone.
Here is the card that I made for her.

I attended a Copics class with the fabulous Kate last Saturday and this is the card we made and I just knew this would be perfect for Brogan.
My colouring isn't brilliant but I'm getting there.
She didn't want a large cake but opted for cupcakes and here is a photo of one of the boxes......there are 36 cupcakes all together.

There is definitely a theme as you can see......shoes, shoes and more shoes.
One of her presents was a pair of Jimmy Choos and yes they do fit me!!!!!! (this was instead of a party I might add)
Tonight we are going out for a meal at one of our favourite restaurants and I'm sure the shoes will be having an outing.   Here is a final photo of my birthday girl.

Happy Birthday Brogie.
We all love you very much.
xxxxx
Have a lovely evening.
Thank you for stopping by.
