Sketch Saturday 87

This is my entry for Sketch Saturday #87. The papers are all SEI and the image is from Digistamp Boutique, coloured with PMs. I'm thinking of sending this one to Hubby for Valentines Day so I hope he doesn't look at my blog! I intend to add the sentiment down the right when I make a definate decision.

Cats Whiskers


Inconsistent that's me! No posts for weeks and then two in one day.

I've done this card for 2 challenges - for the sketch (which I've rotated) Friday Sketchers #86 and with the theme of 'Love' Crafty Catz #15 . All the papers are K&Co and the stamps are Woodware coloured with PMs.

Best Friends


Wow has it really been 2 weeks since my last post! I've not done a great deal of card making as we are in the middle of doing up the living/dining room and all my craft stuff is stuffed into the conservatory which means every time I need something I have to locate it and drag it out (its also cold in there most of the time) so I've not felt very inspired. But I was mssing it so I made the effort to make this card for 2 challenges PFP #35 who have a theme of 'girls, girls, girls' and Carols Sketch Fun #18.

Just to prove I'm not making excuses here's a photo of my craft area - other wise know as the dining room! You can also see the very full conservatory at the back.

Thank You


This is my first challenge card of the year and its for Sketch Saturday.

BUT I mainly made this card to say a really big thank you to Kath and her furry friend Buddy for the wonderful box of goodies that I won in one of her blog candy draws just before Christmas. It was a real treat to open the parcel yesterday and have a rummage through all the lovely stuff and this card is mostly made from it - so once again 'Thank You'.

I'm sure most of you have seen Kath's blog but if you haven't it's really worth a look, she makes the most wonderful cards, Buddy is just adorable and her posts are always entertaining.

Happy New Year

Hi there, I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and are looking forward to the New Year. I can't wait to get back into entering all the challenges when they start again, although I will really have to plan my time well as we are decorating the lounge in the new year!
Enjoy your evening everyone and I'll see you in 2010.

Nearly there!

At last I'm nearly finished for christmas. All my cards are finished and delivered, all the presents are bought and wrapped, decorations are up and I've made my starter for Christmas lunch. Only things left to do are collect my turkey from M&S and wait in for my food delivery from Tesco on Weds (who will hopefully have everything I ordered - I have a fear that they will run out of sprouts or something else thats essential).

Now a bit of the pressure is off I may have a bit of time to do some cards and I've got a few scrapbook pages I've been wanting to do for a while so hopefully I should be posting more than once a month again!

If I don't manage to post again before the big day I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and New Year and Santa is good to you too!
