Hi all does time go too quick at times. I have been enjoying the summer holidays with my Marc and Chloe as John have no holidays this year we have just been going out here and there. A little holiday at Berwick caravan park. John has been getting on with the loft conversion which is coming along quite well once we make a start on the stairs most the of heavy work will be complete. I cannot wait and then start to try and sort out the house and my crafting area. Well I have been asked to make a couple of Ruby Anniversary cards. I have made these using LOTV stamps. (the person picked the stamps herself). Both cards are size 6 by 6 backing papers and embellishements are from stash. I have coloured my stamped images using pro-markers.

LOTV - Teacher's Thank you Card

Hi all we have made some good progress this weekend at clearing out so now John can finally get on with doing the loft. Hopefully this time next year everything is all sorted and I have a little craft room. It is also that time of year cannot believe another school year is nearly over. My little boy goes into year 3 (which is Junior school) so frightening how time is going so quick.

Then finished card with ribbon and gems.

Ice Skate Tilda - card

Hi all, hope you are all keeping well. I cannot believe how stupid I can sometimes be. I have been watching and buying a couple of Tilda stamps of ebay I have about 8 now but could have had aload more if I remembered about Sir Stampalot and I would have saved a bit money. After watching this stamp for absolutely ages and seeing it sell for stupid monies even starting price in some cases was £25.00 I have finally bought the same from Sir Stampalot for a lot lot less. Well needless to say I be buying all my Tilda stamps of this site from now on. Guess so of us learn the hard way but never late than ever haha. This is the card I have made size is 6 by 6 backing papers from stash (blue with glitter is from Forever Friends baby collection). Tilda image coloured in with pro-markers and then finished with glitter, ribbon and snowflakes (sizzix die cuts) and gems. pro-markers used:- skin ivory, blush, dusky pink, and soft peach hair: cinammon, coco, henna and putty Jeans:- China Blue, Powder blue and pastel blue Top, hat and Scarf: cocktail pink and pastel pink ice skates:- ice gray, 4, 3, and 1
