Baby Blues

Afternoon peeps, popping on while I have the chance this weekend.  The house is all topsy-turvy at the moment as we are getting new heating in over the next few days -  I have about six jumpers and four pairs of socks at the ready to throw on just in case it gets a bit nippy!!.  I am having to move all my crafty stash out of the cupboard where the boiler is kept.  Me feels I am going to have great fun rummaging all through it and coming across things I didn't even realise I had! ...lol...


This is a cheeky wee quick card I had done using a Forever Friends 3D Element, in't he a cutie.  The  checked blue paper is from the bottom of my scrap drawer and the button brads, ribbon and gems are from stash..  The cute elephant charm is from Meiflower.  Tools used are my circle & scallop circle Nesties and a embossing folder.  The challenges covered are:-

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

Evening peeps, how you all doing.  Winter has definitely arrived, with all the leaves off the trees and the frosty mornings ....brrrrr .... thinking about it just wants me to snuggle up inside mu duvet.


This quick wee Christmas card was made using one of Lili of the Valley's pre-coloured diecuts, handy as my colouring-in mojo has left the building (another reason why I have not been on).  The gel stars and rik-rak ribbon are from stash.  The challenges covered today are:-

Baby Stepper Card

Afternoon peeps.  Just back from one of our Christmas Craft Fairs with The Brionni Trust, and we managed to raise £73, not to bad for a few hours work and that it wasn't very busy.  One down and one to go tomorrow.  Just posting this while having a well deserved cup of coffee and swithering whether or not to head up to my table for a wee play.

Had a great day yesterday at the Hobbycrafts Craft Show in Glasgow.  Stocked up in all my essential items and managed to grab a couple of bargain buys at the same time.  Surprised myself though - I never indulged in a must have purchase *note to self* must try harder the next time! .... lol.. 


Now, I warned you all I was into making Stepper cards - and there's another one, a boy's christening card.
The main image is a diecut image from Lili of the Valley.  The little teddy bears & ducks are cut from funky foam by Sizzix Paddle Punches and decorated by using Liquid Pearls and a black marker.  The challenges covered are:-

Golfer's Glory

Morning peeps.  How is everyone.  Sorry I have not been on as late, I have been up to my eyes in reindeer, snowman & ghost poo! ....lol.....  The Brionni Trust has two (yes two) craft stalls next weekend on Saturday & Sunday so I'm manicly trying to make items to help fill the table.  I had plans to make so many other gift items but have quickly ran out of time...... * Note to self * Start making gifts for next year in January ....lol...

Barry is doing really well after his operation last week to is going back to work tomorrow (Monday).  He had a quiet celebration for his 40th birthday as wasn't really up for a big bash.  This is the stepper card I made for him since he is a keen golfer.

Don't Mess with my Tu-tu

Afternoon peeps - Yay! - It's the weekend - Whoop Whoop! Hope you are all looking forward to it.  I am playing Nurse Nancy this weekend.  Barry had an operation on his nose yesterday (which was also his 40th Birthday) and has been discharged today so I am at his beck and call for the next few days until he is back on his feet.  I am hoping to get a few hours in for playing though - fingers crossed.

Hello.........

Morning!!!....................

Apologises for not being on Blogland for a while,  for a wee change I've had a diary full of night outs so not had much chance for a wee chance to play at my table.  I have also been doing a few commissioned cards for peeps which I can share with you all when I can get the chance...

Also we nipped away on a weeks holiday to Lanzarote which was great.  We needed a week to relax and enjoy some kind of sunshine.  Was a bit of a shock to the system though landing back in Glasgow to freezing weather ..... brrrrrr ... heating straight on...lol.

So this weekend I have been looking forward to getting all sticky and covered in glitter ...lol... easy pleased me! ....lol...  Last week was a week of 70th Birthdays with Barry's mum and my mum hitting this milestone. This is the Easel Card I made for Maisie, Barry's mum to mark her special birthday.  


The sentiment was printed off the computer, Flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts, Gems, peeloffs & ribbons are from stash.  Tools used are leaf punches, embossing folders & Oval Nesties.  The challenges covered are:-

It's a Whole New World

..... and to be somewhere exotic laying on a beach sipping a cocktail would be lovely with someone fanning me down, and peeling me a grape would be a Brucie Bonus. ...lol...  but back to reality, its Sunday already and back to work tomorrow.

We, The Brionni Trust, have a card stall next Sunday the 26th at Tilly Market Traders, Devonvale Hall, Tillicoultry and I have been busy trying to do some stock cards so unfortunately not had much time to play I have however done this card which I am entering into the following challenges:-


The digi image is from Kenny K, coloured by my whisper pens.  The backing paper is a scrap off a scrapbooking sheet.  The camera & suitcase brads are from stash.  Tools used are Nesties and an embossing folder.  

Have a great Sunday.

Sunshine!!!

Hooray!!  Summer is here at last - well, for a couple of days at least ...lol.. so hoping to make the most of it this weekend.  My friend Lesley (aka Pinkles Dreams) has hood-winked me into a shopping trip tomorrow (boohoo) -  to the new Hobbycraft shop that has opened in Falkirk, (Yeehaw, I can handle that type of shopping!!!) and maybe a wee bar lunch could be on the cards too ... hehehe.  


This stamp I have had for ages and I am afraid I don't know who it is from. I added some Stickles on the flower to glam it up a bit.  The papers are from Papermania.  Ribbon & charm are from stash.  The challenges covered today are:-

Sunday Already

Where goes the weekend go! .... I must admit it has been spent must of the time playing with new kitty Woody, he is a cheeky chap and definitely been here before ...lol..  He is also the reason I've not done must crafting this week either. Onyx and him are getting on great but Jazz still is still wary of him - doesn't help that Woody charges after him like an annoying little brother! ...lol..

Metal butterfly charm is from Meliflower Crafts with the peel-off sentiment and ribbon is from stash.  Tools used are Oval Nesties, embossing folder and MS zig-zag border punch.  The challenges covered are:-
