Exciting news!!!

Helllooooo
Wow ......so I can't quite believe that I have been chosen to be on the Teddy Bo DT... but I have! I am so excited to be showcasing some fabulous images created by the super talented Gayle Cook.

It was a last minute decision to enter, but so glad that I did now :)

I coloured this image up at the weekend. I was going through a load of files from my old laptop and found my Teddy Bo folder with some very cute and adorable bears....
A very CAS card from me as usual but Teddy Bea looks so sweet I wanted to showcase her :)

When you wish upon a star

Good afternoon to you all,
How are you all doing?....... I am not getting much spare time to come and visit you all so apologies for that :(

I am so happy that the super talented Gayle is back with the very cute and adorable bears at Teddy Bo.......I have missed these cute lil characters but it looks like they are back and even better than before.  Gayle is re drawing some of the original characters and they are available now as digital images here 

Here is a quick card that I put together using Teddy Bea...isn't she sweet :)

September Challenge over at Spectrum Noir - Friendships

Morning to you all,
Wow hasn't the weather been fantastic here in the UK for the last few days :)  Summer hasn't left us just yet.

Today is 36 years since my eldest brother was killed in a road accident.....It just doesn't seem possible and so long ago that I can bearly remember him....I was only 8 (given my age away now!)....nearly turning 9 so it almost feels like I never had an older brother.  I do miss him though, probably more in later years as I always wonder what he would have ended up doing...something practical...I think probably a Joiner as he loved woodwork :)...... Miss you Lee xx


Ok so I am here to share a card.....

As you know I am now on the Spectrum Noir DT so this is my first month of creating cards for the monthly challenges.....This month is Friendships
I was fortunate enough to be given some CC images to play with, so todays card is using a super cute image from Rachel Anne Miller called - Squeeze

Another Ladybug Crafts Ink favourite........


Good morning to you all,

So I managed to survive week one of the new term!  It wasn't as bad as previous years :)

I have a card to share using another of my favourite images from Ladybug Crafts Ink as you will have seen in my previous post Kerry is closing the doors and so we are having a final challenge and the theme is "use your favourite image"  I have so many favourites it is always hard to choose.

Magnum is another much loved character from Ladybug Crafts Ink ...for this card I have used Tiptoeing Lily......it is available to buy for just £1.00
Make sure you head over to the shop and see all the other great images that are on sale.




The image was coloured with Spectrum Noir pencils

87,110,8,114, 12

Ribbon and twine from stash.

Hope you have a great weekend whatever you get up to .........another crochet class for me :)

Thanks for popping over.

Last Challenge at LCI......

Hello, I am back again today to share my card for the very last challenge over at Ladybug Crafts Ink......after 5 years  Kerry has decided to call it a day so she can spend more time with her adorable Grandson.
I will be very sad to see the challenge end, it has been a great to be part of the DT but all good things must come to an end to make way for a new chapter to start.
Big thanks to Kerry for having me on the team :) 

For this last challenge some of the retired Ladybugs are joining us so I hope you will pop over to see what they have created......
I have used Cupcake Cutie - Cherry on Top.  It was a difficult choice as to know which image to choose for this challenge as it could have been any number of my favourites but this image was the very first one that I purchased from Ladybug Crafts Ink so thought it was the most apt.


I have coloured the image with Spectrum Noir pencils....
Face: 4,5,88
Cherry: 26,27
Top, Skirt,shoes and tights: 34,35,26
Hair:88,110
Ladder,87,88,110
Cupcake Case 16,88,87

Fluffy stuff for the cupcake frosting
Flat back pearls - The Hobby House
Die- Namics - Alphabet die 
Scallop die 
Bakers twine
Sentiment - Craftwork Cards


There is also a big sale starting today over at the shop here

ALL cling stamps will be on sale for £1 and all ribbon, felt, buttons and nailheads are 30% off. The Swarovski crystals will NOT be in the sale. 




Hope you can join us for this last challenge - the theme is choose your favourite image, it doesn't have to be a LCI image but it would be great if it was.

Thanks for popping over today.
