I know it's late



Ok, I know Easter has been and gone....I've made this card for my son to give to his eldest daughter (who doesn't live with him...sadly...he will be seeing her next week) Instead of an egg I am sending some money over which at 14 I think she will appreciate more.....I believe she had rather a lot of eggs anyway.

Tilda Challenge







Here is my latest Tilda Challenge, I made another of the treat holders and will pop some money inside for my grand daugher's holday. I enjoyed making these holders, so much so that I made 7 for easter and popped some mini eggs and a chicken inside the bag and gave them to my grand children and other ladies that were together over Easter. I have to say they all loved them, in fact I think the children were happier with them than the actual Easter eggs we gave them.

What a glorious Easter break we had with the lovely weather, certainly makes a change to have a bright and sunny bank holiday.

Treat holder Challenge





This month's challenge is to make a treat holder, and the theme.....can you guess....yes, black and white.

This started off as a plain piece of white card, I stamped it with the Tim Holtz butterfly stamp and floral flourish, as well as a spotty background and a scribbled stamp too...the scribbled stamp has some foil over it but it doesn't show up on the scan. Inside you had to put a bag with some flower 'treats' inside. All I have to do is get to the post office and post it off!!!

Not today though as one of my dogs, Bennie, (the dog made up of all the bits God had left over) is in the vets having his teeth cleaned and a dew claw removed, so I am bit lost today and waiting to hear from the vets as to when I can collect my baby......Monster dog (Chester) is being very quiet, so I guess he is missing his pal too.

Money'gift holder


I made this money/gift holder for a challenge, it had to be pink and grey and have at least three tags inside.

Tilda time again!


Running late again with this challenge, but managed to sit and craft for a while today, mainly because I got up at 2.30 this morning with a headache and neck ache and haven't been to sleep since, so decided it was a good day to take it easy ha ha ha. (good excuse anyway)

Little boy blue


Ok not quite the little boy blue in the nursery rhyme as this one is holding his toy sailing boat!!!!!

Not had much time to craft for what seems an age as we were away for a long weekend, and didn't we pick a fabulous time to go with all the gorgeous sunshine.

Still it's back to 'normal' again for the time being.

Seem to have had a busy day today and have done nothing I planned to, but I really had to get at least one card made to get in the post tomorrow, and I think it will arrive too late for the birthday boy (well man actually)I used my promarkers to colour the image and the sea and sky, not too sure about the sea and sky, but the best I could do!
