What do you think of when someone mentions Spring??

 Warmer days, lambs, daffodils, crocuses, tulips and the Easter Bunny!!!

My card today I have used an image from Digistamp Boutique

 and made a card blank from two different coloured Pink Petticoat DP - simples!!!

Hope you've had a lovely Easter weekend!

Two more sleeps ;0)

Today's card was made for my beautician's father to send to his wife - the poor man has been in hospital since July with vascular problems...fingers crossed he will be allowed home for Christmas dinner.

The image is from Digi stamp Boutique and perfect for this card.

Again I have matted it onto a piece of Anna Marie Designs card.

Thank you for stopping by

Happy Sunday !!

We had a lovely wander around our local Christmas market today ~ 'it's beginning to feel alot like Christmas'

Today's card is for a friend who lives in California and her parents live here in UK - she always sends me a scan of her greeting which I print and put inside and 

she doesn't need to worry about the card being late and any excessive postal charges....excellent idea ;0)

I have used a Digi-stamp Boutique image and Anna Marie Designs dotty card - coloured in with Pro-markers and 'sparkled' with my Wink of Stella pens which you can't really see in the photo.

Thank you for stopping by......

delighted with the card for her Mum.

Snow Penguin

Today's card is one of my first batch of Christmas orders and you won't believe this lady has already started wrapping her presents - how wrong is that ??

The image is a Digistamp Boutique one and is so cute and easy to colour.

I embossed the whole piece of card with a Sizzix embossing folder and flittered the snow and snowflakes.

Thank you for stopping by - hope you are having a good weekend.

One today.....

Good Evening All !!

Today I went out to lunch with a couple of girlfriends - we were deciding whether we book a lunch for Christmas or do something completely different - in the end we have decided to book a treatment each at a local beauticians which is located in a renovated farm and you get home made cakes, cups of tea etc all served in vintage crockery - it's just so cute and now have something to look forward to :0)

My card today was a request for a friend - I used Baby Rosie from Digistamp Boutique.

Pretty in Pink.

Morning!  A really quick card for you today using my favourite colour pink !! I am really loving using my embossing folders direct on my blank card instead of using DP !!

A little bit of glamour....and a cutie...

I've had a lovely weekend down in Kent with my new baby nephew - and although the journey was miserable both ways it was more than worth it.

 

Here's the gorgeous little man.......how cute is he ??!!

 

My card today is for a lady who loves clothes - I've had this image for sometime and decided to put it to use !!

I paper pieced the dress with a digital paper from Pink Petticoat and I was very pleased with the result......the sentiment was computer generated.

 

 a sneaky peak at the inside....

 

 

 

 

Hope you've had a lovely weekend - and take care this week, I believe more snow has been predicted for some parts of UK. :0(

 

Hugs
