Sugar Nellie

This little girl is called Lola and she loves to gather flowers, what a lovely way to spend a day, I'd be up for that! I have really enjoyed stamping this week and using my Whispers markers to colour. Great!

on a roll today!

Have really enjoyed myself today, I had an unexpected day off work and was motivated enough to get the dreaded housie stuff out of the way early so I would have some playtime! I have been busy since early afternoon playing with my bits of paper and stamps, it was wonderful and guilt free! This little image is Maggie, would you like to meet her? She is from Sugar Nellie designs and i think she is so sweet!

Little Gem!

Recently purchased this little guy from http://pinkgemdesigns.blogspot.com/, isn't he just adorable in his little bumble-bee suit! I really enjoyed making this little card, the colours all just seem to come together and it felt so easy. Nice one!

Pink Petticoat thank you.

I had another one of those episodes this week when you realise that your child is growing up way too fast and is tip toeing into the big world! My daughter, who is almost 17, is on work experience this week. I know, I'm sad! She has been lucky enough to be able to obtain a great insight into the legal system as she is "working" in the courthouse. She has an interest in criminal psychology of all things! I watched her get out of the car and make her way up the steps, unsure of what lay ahead, but hey! she did really great, and loved it! So, I thought I would make this little card to say thank you to the ladies in the office for looking after my baby so well! I used the black flourishes from Pink Petticoat Sweet Sundaes range, the little lady is also from Pink Petticoat, she is of course Lola, coloured with my Faber Castell pencils mounted up on some pink card from my stash. The black ribbon is from Papermania as is the flower and button. The die cut flower was cut using my trusty cuttlebug and a sizzix die, finished off with some Stickles glue and a little sparkly heart. Nice, I think!

sugar nellie lurve!

A little card I made for my husband Gary, today is our wedding anniversary, 18 years, wow, where did all that time go, scary! I'm a romantic at heart, don't get me wrong, I look at modern cards and think "aren't they beautiful", but I am always drawn to more romantic looking things. This little stamp I just love, its from Sugar Nellie and show little Lola and Simon having a cuddle, I think it's so sweet! I coloured this using my Faber Castell watercolour pencils. Gary liked his card, even though it is a bit girlie, ah well hard to break the habit of a lifetime! About to head to bed, I have a horrible cold, sniff, so I will update the other materials I used tomorrow! Apologies for the quality of the picture, a bit blurry, but you get the drift!

Sweet Wishes!

This little number has been made using the Sweet Sundaes range of papers from Pink Petticoat, I am such a fan of these convenient little downloads, I'm not on commission or anything I just love them! The backing paper is the flourishes from the pack and the little ice cream has been chosen from the sundae selection. I used some sticky ribbon from Anita's crafts and a little fabric flower from Prima, finished off with a little flowers shaped brad from Papermania, I couldn't help myself and thought this was a prime candidate for some Stickles glitter! Mmmmmmmmmm!
