Stripey!

 Afternoon all.  It's my choice of theme today over at Cardz4galz and I would love to see Stripes on your creations please.  I used washi tape to create the stripes on my panel and rose gold mirri card to enhance the design.  I kept everything else white so as not to detract from the background.

I did cut my square panel a little wonky so I stuck it on the card base wonky to compensate.  I'm really pleased with the result.

Please pop over to join my theme so I can comment on your lovely creations.

Thanks for reading.

It's all fun and games

 Morning all.  We are having lots of 'fun and games' over at Cardz4guyz this week as that is our new theme.  I had just the card idea as I'd just bought a download from Debbie Moore in order to create a card for my son's birthday.  I'd not used all the layers so I created this one from the bits left over.

I'm really pleased with how this turned out.  I think it makes a perfect 'Guyz' card.

Please pop over and join in the fun.

Going Green

 Hello all. Over at Make My Monday we would love to see 'green' on your projects please.  It's lovely and green around here.  I'm lucky enough to live on the water and we have lovely fields to walk in. The whole place is alive with wildlife and I'm lucky enough to have a kingfisher for a neighbour.  He sits on one of the jetty bollards further down from our mooring and I've used him as inspiration for my card today.

I'm so very blessed to live here with all the bird life around.

Thanks for reading.

Yummy Scrummy

 Morning all.  Over at The Alphabet Challenge Blog we are at 'Y for Yummy'.  I have a whole set of food dies and couldn't decide what sort of food to go for.  In the end I went for luscious doughnuts as I've used most of the savoury choices before.  And, if you are going to have doughnuts, you really need icing and sprinkles on them.

I just kept it simple and added a greeting.  I was tempted to through some sprinkles at the background but decided less is more.

Thanks for reading.

Spring into Spring

 Tomorrow is the first day of spring in the UK.  It would have been my grandma's birthday.  We always had spring flowers out for her birthday.  For this week's challenge over at Cardz4galz we would love to see your 'spring' cards and projects.

I've gone all cute with mine.

I got this adorable clipart from Auroracraftery on Etsy.  I didn't even realise how similar it was to my blog name until I came to publish it.  It must have been meant to be.

Thanks for reading.

Sweet 16

 I'm sorry that my posts this week are late.  I've been ill for about 3 weeks now and haven't been on the computer much.  Over at Cardz4guyz we have the challenge of 'S for ...'.  I've gone crackers with this one (a card I made for my nephew Charlie) - stars, stripes and 16.

Please pop over and join in the fun.

Thanks for reading.

Easter Blessings

 Morning all.  I know Easter is late this year but it's this month's challenge over at Sparkles Monthly. The colours for Easter Sunday are Gold and White and that's what I've used for my inspiration.  I've kept it very simple and, when I can find my Easter stamps I will add a greeting.  I've tipped the boat upside down but I can't find them at the moment.

Please pop over and show us your Easter creations.

Thanks for reading.
