Welcome to the Blog

Didn't they do well!!! I've worked with our nursery children over the last 3 weeks to make thier costumes. We have been tie dying, sewing and painting. we were really lucky today as the weather held out for us showers in the morning and thunderstorms early evening...

This again was made using my stamps from The Angel Company and I love the sentiments that go with this set.

This is a card that I've made for a colour challenge with one of my new stamp sets that I got from The Angel Company. I think she's fab! I've used Sakuara and Whisper pens to colour the image and highlighted the flower centre's with cotton candy stickles, which I have also put around the edge of the card before matting it on the orange cardstock. I used an Anita's sentiment stamped in orange.

Wow was really pleased with my 1st crop today, I managed to complete 3 whole pages and have 2 left to embellish!These first 2 pages were from our visit in May up to see Angy and Gwen (Minimaker/Mum). We had a fabulous time although the weather wasn't all that great. The day we went to Bridgenorth it was very windy. Here you can see Frank my darling hubby, playing the joker and pretending his got muscles....LOL

This picture of Heidi was taken last year when she went to stay with her Godmother Philly in Ireland. I thought is was a gorgeous photo and managed to find some papers that complemented it. I even used my cricut to cut out some flowers... and my latest toy the BIG BITE to set the eyelets.

Here I've used an adriondack dabber to colour the canvas and double mounted a lovely picture of my daughters (Lucy, Heidi and Amy) on a piece of bazzil bling and patterned paper. Then at the bottom I've added some ribbon over a strip of the patterned paper.

Here I've used one of my favourite stamps at the moment with my Alcohol inks..these are really to use.You apply your chosen colours to the applicator, adding the blending solution if you want the colours less subtle.. and then stamp away! I like it as you never now how the colours will turn out..every time you stamp you get a different effect.

This is the latest stamp that i have purchased...I think he's so cute, i've used him here as a tag for a swap that i'm taking part in.
