My card I have used one of the 'new' Nikki digi stamps - well not truly new but new to the digi world...Slobbing Nikki

I followed the middle line : Pink Ribbon, Stitching and Pink Buttons

The backing paper is from Nitwits collections, the ribbon and buttons from LCI, a gorgeous Spellbinders nestie, computer generated sentiment punched with my SU punch.....and it's a shame you can't see the stitching clearly it is a new one I found on eBay - Gutermann Sulky - totally stunnalicious.



Nikki was coloured in using my Promarkers, paper pieced the sofa, her turban was 'fun flocked' to give it a fluffy towel look.....and her slippers were glitzed and glamoured with Glamour Dust.

Feeding Missy....

My good friend Jane has gone to London for a girly weekend (where was my invite ???!!!)  and I have been left with cat duties. Missy is insulin dependant so it's quite important she gets fed and injected at the right time-ish - so Saturday morning and I'm up and out by 9.00 - totally unheard of for me.....but this morning I feel like I've had a full day already !!

My card today is very clean and simple - a friend asked for a understated birthday card for a new neighbour's daughter.....my card fit the bill and she was extremely pleased with it.

The balloons were punched out on scrap paper I had left over......joined together with a tiny bit of jute twine and diamantes between each . I thought the green and lilac looked lovely together......

'Fore' you

 
How cold is it outside ......absolutely freezing.
 
John returned home this afternoon from Kentucky and said how warm it was - and he's off to San Francisco on Monday for the week.....so not fair.
 
Today's card was for a friend's husband who is a keen golfer - love this simple image from Digistamp Boutique, coloured in with my promarkers.,the backing paper is from Nitwits.

Mojo on it's way back :0)

 
I think I left my mojo in Australia but it's finally come back.....made so many cards today catching up on orders, requests and my own cards that I need to send - I'm really chuffed.
 
I also managed a cuddle with a neighbours 6 month old baby.....;)
 
I played a little bit with this card and am quite happy with the outcome....
 
The papers are Nitwits and the Star nesties are Spellbinders
I think the star circle doily thingymajig is Nellie Snellen but I've had it for ages and never used it.....
