Green Gorjuss Girl

Evening peeps, back again with my 2nd post of today.  I am trying so hard to make as many quickie stock cards as I can for our charity stall next week but there are so many fabby challenges on at the moment I have had to take some time out just so I can have a wee play.

This image is one of my favourites out of the Gorjuss Girl range from Sugar Nellie.  I have coloured her with my  bargain paints (£2.99 from The Works - and I have had them for at least 5/6 years ...lol)  Backing papers are from the Clare Curd Range from docrafts.  Flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.  Pearls, card candi and ribbon are from stash.  Tools used are Oval Nesties and Leaf Punch.  The challenges covers are:-

• Fab 'n' Funky Challenge  -  Go Green
• Ooh La La Challenges  -  Make it Girly
• My Mum's Craft Shop Challenges  -  Bingo (Flowers, Pearls & Diecuts)

Morning Madness

Good morning, good morning, good morning to everyone.  Hope you all are enjoying the weekend - especially if you are off for the Bank Holiday Monday.  Sorry I have not been on as of late, I don't know if it is me or Mr Blogger but I am having great difficulty in loading up sites, so slow and they keep not responding  (I am starting to get paranoid - hehehe).  So hopefully in a couple of hours time I would have actually posted this!!!

This easel card is a commissioned card for someone at work.  The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.  Embossing folder, I think is from Craft Too.  Diecut swirls are from Marieanne Creations.  Also used was my oval Nesties.  Ribbon and pearls are from stash.  The challenges covered today are:-

Happy Easter Weekend

Afternoon peeps... hoping for a wee crafting this afternoon, Barry is away to the Footie, so peace perfect peace for a few hours.  Blogger/Internet Explorer is starting to really annoy me now, so apologies for not getting around to visiting everyone.   It either freezes or throws me out of sites before they are uploaded ...grrrr.   I thought it has been my computer for the pass few weeks, but it seems there quite a few of you experiencing the same so don't feel so guilty now ...lol..

We are starting to see more and mores lambs in the fields now, I don't know about the rest of you but they seem later this year than usual.  They are so cute and love watching them frolick about in their wee gangs and it is a definate sign that Spring has arrived and Summer is on it's way (fingers crossed soon as I have had to pop the heating back on!).

This card was made using some freebie papers and images from a crafting magazine whish I have tried to 3D up.  Green velvet ribbon, card candys and peeloffs are from stash.  Tools used is an embossing folder and oval & circle Nesties.  The challenges covered are:-

• Creative Card Crew  -  Spring
• Fab 'n' Funky Challenges  -  Emboss It
• My Mums Craft Shop Challenge  -  Animals

Hope you have a good weekend and hopefully I plan a few more posts before the weekend is out.
