Pink Gem Designs Baby Boy


Hello!! Lucky last card for tonight.  A baby card :-)  I don't know about everyone else, but when I buy digi's, I cant just buy one from the store I need to spend at least over $5 to make it worth my while LOL!!!! So I got this cutie from Pink Gem Designs with my other baby images (One more to come) This one is called Baby Boy Bundle.  The papers are from My Mind's Eye called Portobello Road "Buddies" and Forever Friends "Kraft Notes".  The new baby sentiment is a clear stamp from unknown set.  The banner die is a My Favorite Things die.  Flowers are WOC.  The feet brads are sooo old and crying to be used (I'm talking 8 years old when my twins were born!!!) and the lace is from my stash.  I have also glued on some dew drops.  

I would like to enter into the Creative Inspirations Challenge for a baby card.

Elisabeth Bell Cupcake


Hello! Long time no see!!! I have been super busy just with life, nothing really exciting happening, I just haven't had time to craft.  So today I locked myself in my craft room and whipped up this card :0).  It is sad news that the Belles and Whistles stamp store is closing :0(  They are selling off what is left of their stamps at 35% off... so I HAD to go shopping lol!!!  This cutie is called "cupcake".  Of course by the divine Elisabeth Bell, luckily, Elisabeth designs for other companies like Whimsy.   So I guess, one's loss is anothers gain... go get yourself a bargain!.  I have coloured her with copics, and used paper from my prima pad called "sun kiss"  and the circle paper is really glittery- not picked up well by my camera.  It is from My Mind's Eye called "Portobella Road- buddies". The sentiment is from a clear Kaiser Craft set.


I have used flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts and Prima.  I flattened out a metal bead cap and pushed a moonstone brad through it.  the flourish is from My Favourite things die.

I made this little dangle angel from beads and crystals.


The middle of the card finished like the front :0)

OK... so .... I bought this card stander (below) on the internet thanks to a friend sharing the link.  I have been searching forever for one of these- I didnt know what they were called..... WELL they are an Illuma-Lid candle accessory.  I couldnt resist and bought two one for me, one for my blog :0)

SOOOOO.... when I get to 50 followers, I have been gathering some candy and will be adding one of these to the pack!  spread the word, when I get to 50, I will put up some pics of the candy :0)

If you cant wait til I get 50 followers (it may be a while lol!!!) this is the link to where I got mine from.... For Ausie buyers, I recieved it in two days of purchase- so I can recommend their service!!

Penny Black Toadily birthday card


Good morning! thanks for stopping by.  phew work has been so busy and with the flu thats going around at the moment, I have done some extra shifts, which means my craft room has been neglected and so has my blog :0( I have had today off, which gave the chance to do some crafting YAY!!!  I am not normally a lover of green or frogs, but a friend of the family has a birthday today and she loves frogs, so thought I would get out of my comfort zone with this card.  Also if you pop over to Southern Girls Challenge this fortnight they want to see projects relating to water...and well...frogs LOVE water!!!  I have followed a sketch set by Dawny over at Papertake Weekly.  The cute little image is from a Penny Black clear set called "toadily". It is such a perfect size and is super cute with the lily flower.  I have added a square ribbon slider, moonstone brads from WOC, ribbon and a large daisy from stash.  The papers are: "Dancing Jewel" from KaiserCraft, "Market street happy birthday dictionary paper" from My Minds Eye, and "Vintage Market" from Adorn It.


I would like to enter into the following challenges:

She was a challenge to colour- I am trying hard to work on my frills, and this image had plenty of them!!!

Krista Smith.... Thank You


hello! thanks for stopping by today.  this little cutie is another from Krista Smith over at Saturated Canary called "Thankyou".  I have coloured her up with copics.  The bottom DP is from a Prima pad called "Fairy Belle", the flower DP is a My Minds Eye card called "Fiddlesticks You & Me Bloom paper".  I wasn't sure about putting purple and yellow together, but it kinda works and I am growing to like it! I have followed an awesome sketch from Creative Inspirations.  Flowers are from WOC with a litle colour added to cream flowers to match my design.  Ribbon and slider are from my stash. the cute little sentiment on the front is from a My Sentiments Exactly clear set called "a little birdie"- I cut the bird off the swirl part of the stamp.  The inside sentiment is from a set of stampin' up stamps (not sure of the name of the set).  The flourish die cut is called "Leafy Flourish" by My Favourite Things.  I have thrown around some pearls, stickles and dimension magic.

some boys cards at last!




I always struggle with boys cards, but found this awesome sheet of robot chipboard from "My Mind's Eye" I added boggly eyes 'cause its not like you can add flowers or bows to boys cards! I'm happy with how they turned out!
