A Trio Of Treats

Hi Folks
Hope everyone's enjoying the long weekend. Just a few little cards to sell at work, love all these cute little images, only got them the other day and just had to ink them up. We're off to the Cotswolds for a few days on Tuesday, so if I don't see you tomorrow, have a great week!

Two-Part Harmony

Hi Peeps
Ok admit it, who's been watching Eurovision? I've sort of been watching/listening to it! It is quite funny though :) I think this little mousie and birdie could probably sing alot better than most of 'em! Love this sweet image and it was a joy to colour in too. Shall pop it into these challenges:
ILovePromarkers 'A sketch'
SimonSaysStamp 'Pink OR Blue WITH Green & Brown'
Thank you for looking and back to Eurovision to confirm that hardly anybody's voted for us :)

Hope everyone is enjoying this fabulous sunshine! It's made me make a card with this sweet image I bought yesterday, the first of a few Sarah Kay's me thinks. Although, I'm not entirely happy with this card, I think it's the flowers, mmm don't know, maybe they're not too bad. Anyway, I'll try and squeeze this into a couple of challenges and then go and make the most of the evening sun!

A Spring Tulip Jungle

Hi Folks
Well I really enjoyed doing an easel card yesterday so I've done another one and have spent a marvellous afternoon mucking about with me Promarkers. This is after having watched a couple of fabulous tutorials on the new LOTVIdeasToInspire blog, I was indeed all inspired and got out one of me favourite stamps and had a play, actually this was a practice image, but was quite pleased with it and thought it would be a waste to just chuck him in the bin! So I'm going to put him into a challenge too, which is the PassionForPromarkers 'Strawberries & Cream' theme, so I've gone with the lovely colour scheme! :)
Have a lovely evening folks and thank you for looking.

Country Garden Cat

Hi Folks
No stamping!! But I couldn't resist this CD from Joanna Sheen! It's called 'Ivory Cats' and it's full of absolutely stunning artwork by Lesley Anne Ivory. If you're a fan of kitties you must have a look! This is actually a card for my Aunty from my Nan! Aunty Sandra loves cats so should be happy with this me thinks, then I've got one to do for my cousin who's also a fan so you'll probably be seeing another soon! Oh and I found a challenge blog for CD's too so will squeeze it into that one. Will do some mega quick hopping before bed, early start tomorrow, hubby has to take me into work cos me car's poorly, had to call the very nice man from the AA when I was round at Mum's earlier and we don't know what's wrong with it! Aaaaargh!

A Spring Tail

Hi Peeps
Gosh I really struggled with this card, kept changing my mind about which papers to use, then I wasn't happy with how I'd coloured the flowers so stamped it out again and decoupaged them! Think Miss Mojo has gone a day trip, in fact I started this yesterday and wanted to get it finished last night but had to go to bed at some point last night! If you know what I mean! Anyway, after all that I hope MIL likes it cos it's for her birthday! I think I can squeeze it into a few challenges too:

Gosh it seems like ages since I was last on here! Now then, how can anyone resist this gorgeous new Magnolia collection? I finally got to play with a couple today and just had to have the fab castle background when I saw it. I was abit scared to colour it though, but it was a pleasure to colour in the end. Got abit carried away with the flowers though, there is some stitching on there, honest! Right I've got abit of catching up to do, so will get blog hopping now!
