Happy New Year...

I hope the year ahead is  happy and healthy one for you all....

All the best everyone..xxx

More Christmas stuff...it just goes on and on....

Still got a few to show so thought I'd put this on while I have a few moments to spare..

This is an old stamp I won many, many moons ago in blogland actually, I pull it out each year, he is so festive and easy to use, I stamped him in versamark and embossed with bronze powder, i think he looks gorgeous..

Cut two oval stitch frames and some lovely ivy corners, covered in super fine glitter and done..

Another old stamp for the inside sentiment, from FunStamps..

If I get time I will enter a challenge or two...

Before I go, can I just show you this, I have been wanting to have ago for ages, well i finally did, glad i did it but never again and to be honest, I am more of a green ferns and branches that look all frosty, so it will go to a good home...haha...

It all started with a foam ring..which at first I covered in beads..!!!!

But then I started with the balls, let me tell you this, you will use more glue sticks than Bostick make...haha...omg, I got to a point where I just couldn't stand any more, but, I finished it, added a nice big wired ribbon and some gold popcorn and that's my lot pal....never ever ever again, I will stick to the things I love....aka pretty summer/spring type wreaths in future...but I can say I tried....if you got this far a massive Thankyou, see you all soon....xxxx

A little bit of Mo does you good....

I don't think I have ever posted so much in my blog history, but I have so much queued up and waiting to show itself off...haha...this one is an all time favourite for me, and funny enough he reminds me so very much of my beautiful Jacob...He is, of course, a Mo Manning image, coloured with the usually Flex and Pro markers...{I keep saying if ever I win the lotto I am buying Copic...but that's a dream...}

Let the image do its 'thing'...the sentiment is PC generated..

Is he not the cutest....

Thanks so much for putting up with me, if I don't run out of time I will find a challenge....xxx

Tags and more tags....

Hello all, oh its hotting up now, only a few days left and we are done for....anyways, I made these tags for family gift baskets, I hope you like..

They are all made using mountboard and then layered up from there, I did use berries and acorns and some cinnamon sticks plus chippies, little rustic bells which have been in my stash for so very long, the stamp is a small block one from east of India and the ribbon i bought last year on eBay, lots of spray and glitter to finish.

This one is slightly different but made in the same way.

Couldn't get a great photo of this one, the light kept bouncing off it...

I have made about half a dozen of these for my lot, but I enjoyed doing it so much and I know they will keep them...daft as I am...

Once again I am done for today, I hope to enter a challenge if I can find one, thank you again for your interest...xxx

Hi All, sorry I am late with my post but a bit poorly this last week, lovely Doctor came yesterday and gave me a whole new lot of meds, so fingers crossed all will be well, I am still up and down in my bed, but thought I'd best get crackin'...And, a big thank you to AuntySue who not only did the challenge post for me, {my week to host...HA..}sorry flower, I'm a big mess right now....xxx

***************************************

This week for the optional twist, I thought I'd just keep to the 'please yourself' attitude, I mean how much glitter can one crafter stand, so nice non Christmas for us, but you lot can suit yourselves...

The fabulous Bugaboo are sponsoring us and gave us our image....Thankyou so much...

I chose Cute Puppy Pile

I coloured with Flex markers, the sky is done with Distress inks, the die I think is Joy crafts, a gift from a friend and I cut two of the butterfly so it could lift away....

That's it I think I've said enough, I am sorry if I have missed comments on your blogs, but like I say I am pretty weird at the minute, will try though I miss seeing all of your gorgeous creations.....have a wonderful { possibly shopping filled }weekend...stay safe friends...xxxx
