Just watched the Peter Kay special so Im off to get my Peter Kay DVD's out as it has put me in the mood to watch him some more.

A Few Challenges together!


Evening Everyone!

Hope you've all had a good day, I had to take today off as the heater in my kitchen is broken, & having it working really comes in handy for drying clothes in the winter, keeps the kitchen lovely & warm & stuff dries much quicker! He came about 4pm - glad I waited in ALL day then lol!

Whilst I waited I deceided I would make a card t join in with a challenge, this one actually fits into two challenges so I didn't do too bad now did I??

First challenge is Three Clovers - this week it's a sketch to follow, I LOVE this sketch & will use again & again!! Next up is Color Create their colors this fortnight are blue, silver & white!

All card stock is from the paper mill, cuttlebug snowflakes embossing folder, snowflake charm from the works, Max & Snowman stamped in memento & colored with pro markers & Cuttlebug snowflake cut & glittered, sentiment printed from PC.

I am thinking I LOVE using charms & may get more as I got a pack of 6 from the works for only £1, the chain was from Fenwicks at £1.50 a metre & jump rings at 99p - I think it was all quite good prices or am I wrong??

Creative Inspirations Brown Bag



Good Morning!

I can't believe that's it over, that I've had 4 days off and I have to go back to work. I HATE having cold as you never get to do anything but sneeze!

I am working 9am-9pm today so I thought I would post my DT entry for Creative Inspirations nice and early! I've also made this to fit in with the Winter Wonderland challenge.

Our theme this week is to decorate a brown bag, now I nearly had trouble when my bag nearly didn't turn up but phew just in the knick of time it was in someone elses mailbox!

I went for a Christmassy theme as I thought it would be nice to give someone a lil Christmas treat of a box of candy canes & this 'lil Tilda would be ideal!
Card stock from paper mill, paper K&Co, ribbon from my stash, Magnolia Tilda colored with Pro Markers & Martha Stewart doily lace border Punch.
