Morning..

.. hope you are all well, the sun is trying to get out here.  Been for a short walk this morning with oh - supposed to fill the morning in but he forgot he had to go and measure a job :-(.

So I'll take this opportunity to blog a recent make:


Now I'm not sure about this I got a bit carried away with trying a new hair colour - I sort of lost my way with the layout - I had an idea in my mind, but I'm not sure it came out as planned lol.

I'm going to make a note here of her hair colour, as I know I'll forget which colours I used and I really like it being a tad different from brown or blonde :-), so the hair colours were, walnut, burnt orange, pumpkin, ginger and apricot.

I would like to enter this into the Sugar Bowl challenge - anything goes.

Thanks for looking

Hi..

... hope you all had a lovely Easter weekend and havent overdosed on chocolate!!!  Hasnt the weather been fab - I've got loads of gardening done and I've even washed the car - shock!!!

The boys have nipped out to play, hubby is at work - so I can actually get on the computer - good grief I'm not sure what game he's playing on but he's more addicted to that than Candy Crush - I cant get a look in!!!!  So whilst I can I'm just going to blog this make:



The girl image has been coloured with promarkers and the dress has been paper pieced.  I then stamped the 21 onto a tag and again paper pieced it I'm not sure who the papers are?? and then I have added gems, ribbon and flowers from my stash.

I would like to enter this into:

Sweet Stampin - paper piecing.
Papertake weekly - anything goes.

Right, back out into the sunshine (its really weird, its like all the people in the close where I live have come out of hibernation - lol - I havent seen some of these people for months!!)

Thanks for looking

Happy Thursday...

...everyone, ooh its lovely and sunny here even a little bit warm!!  So the washing is hanging out and hoping to pop into the garden later :-), if only I could tempt the kids out - why they'd rather be in going stir crazy than going out is a mystery, aah joys of a teenager and a pre-teen!!

Anyhoo, here is a card I've recently made:


I have used a Tiddlyinks image, coloured with promarkers, with papers, card and lace from my stash.  I've finally used a memory box die, that I've had for ages and never used - naughty!!!

I would like to enter this into:

Tiddlyinks - anything goes with a tiddlyinks image
Papertake weekly - I've chosen the pastel option.

Thanks for looking

N.B - I noticed I've actually missed colouring one of her hands - that has now been rectified!!! oops
