Hellooooo!
I hope you are all well on this VERY cold Morning! I am once again waiting on the electrician 1 o my heaters still isn't working.....it's in the kitchen so not needed desperatly but it should still work if I need it to! A good excuse for a day indoors h?!?!?!

As it's Wednesday we have a new challenge at Creative Inspirations!! Woooooooo I LOVE this theme!!! We want you to use only white design papers!!!

For my DT card I have used a white scalloped card blank & mounted white card which I have embossed with a cuttlebug snowflakes embossing folder, the image is a cute cupcake (I orginally thought it was a winter's Hot Chocolate but either way it looks delish!!) from Mel Jen Design's.......I have colored this with Pro Markers & printed the greeting off've my PC, to finish the card I went round e edges of the scallop & snowflake card & all over the image with stardust stickles!! Well no card is complete without them!!!

Please pop over to our blog & join in with our challenge as we have a FAB Prize....

See you all laters!!! x x x x

Honest Santa I've been good.....

Evening Folks,

I hope you're all well....I have been kept busy with this card today. Honest I feel like I'v been making it for about 2 years lol! I hate being blonde & getting distracted by the littlest thing...anyone else struggle with this??

Anyway back to my card......I've made it for the challenge on the Truly Scrumptious blog their challenge is a sketch with the added twist of an easel card...now I didn't really need an excuse to make an easel card as I do love them but I saw the sketch & didn't really love it at first but after looking at the DT work I thought this is one challenge I must do....so well done DT!! Lol

My card is 6x6 bigger than I normally make...but seens as it's Christmas why not.....card is from the Paper Mill the vintage christmas box, paper is Forever Friends cosy christmas, brads are dovecraft, corners have been embossed with cuttlebug swiss dots, & plain & scalloped ovals cut with nestabilities on cuttlebug, Magnolia Tila & Santa Edwin colored with pro markers.

When I first saw this Tilda I knew I wanted to have a greeting with something about being good.....and measuring it with the size of your arms as I used to do this for everything when I was little!!! I hope you all like my little card for today& can pop back to see me soon!

I'm off to see what else I can come up with.....TTFN X x X

...Jemma 'cos I'm gonna miss you! Booo Hoooo I'm sad in this blog post today as I have been making a card for my work mate Jemma, she has left to go to a new job so whilst I am happy she is moing onto bigger & better thigns I will miss her. So I have made this card for her. I took my inspiration from Jane as soon as I saw her Just Magnolia DT card this week I knew thats what I wanted to make a card like for Jemma.

My card stock is from the paper mill, paper is Summer Bloom by Papermania, Magnolia Farewell Tilda has been colored with pro markers & some star dust stickles has been added to her dress & hanky, greeting was printed from my PC & embossed with swiss dots cuttlebug embossing folder & x-cut distressing tool to distress all edges.

I'm having a stressful Sunday I woke very early went to put a washer full on to wash & the blinkin' thing wouldn't work.....so what did I do then what any girl would do who lives on her own, I called my Daddy!!! He talked me through a few things none of which worked so Mam & Dad said they'd come washer shopping with me, before we did I thought "Oooh try it once more" & thats when the blinking thing sprang to life!!!!! No idea what was wrong but at least I dont have to fork out on a new one (I can save for the NEC in Nov) & I don't have to hand wash!!!! Now I'm relaxing got my Sunday dinner cooking & I'm off to look for a DVD to watch as the TV is pants right now.....wish X Factor was on Saturday & Sunday!! LOL See you soon x x x
