Soft Stencilling

Whilst my computer is in a good mood I will also publish my Cardz4galz  card.  We are looking for 'Stencils' on your project please.  I've gone with an old Funky Fossil stencil and just added it softly to one corner. I'm really pleased with this as I think it's a perfect backdrop to my new coffee cup die.  Can you tell I've had some birthday money to use.


Sorry about the poor photo.  I can't wait for lighter nights so I can get some shots in daylight.

Thanks for reading.

Hello Foxy

 Sorry this is late but my computer has been playing me up. Over at Cardz4guyz this week we have a Tic Tac Toe challenge for you.

I have some new animal dies so I was always going to start from the top corner.  Going down, I've added texture and brown.


Isn't he adorable.  Please pop over and join in the fun.

Thanks for reading.

Warm and Cosy

 Afternoon all and a Happy New Year.  Starting the new year with a 'warm and cosy' theme over at Sparkles Christmas Challenge.  It's been lovely and cosy on the boat this Christmas and Santa did manage to get down our little chimney (the trick is to leave the stove door open so he can get out).  Here's a little Tatty Ted by a much wider fire place waiting for Santa.


Take the opportunity to join in and get ahead for next years Christmas cards.

Thanks for reading.

What's your favourite?

 Morning all.  I was very impressed with all the brilliant cards for my stitching theme over at Make My Monday. It was so hard to choose the winners.  As it's the last challenge of the year we are allowing you to pick your favourite theme from 2024.  I chose the fun fold theme and here's my card. 


Thank you for joining us in 2024 and we wish you all a peaceful, happy and crafty 2025.

Thanks for reading.

A stitch in time

 Afternoon all.  It's my choice of theme over at Make My Monday this time.  I would like to see some stitching on your projects please.  It can be real or faux.  I used to do stitched cards a lot.  It's nice to get back to it occasionally.


I've kept it simple in order to show off the stitches.

Thanks for reading.

Silent Night

 Hello all.  With all the hustle and bustle coming up to Christmas don't you just wish for a little bit of peace and some silence.  Today, over at The Alphabet Challenge we are up to 'S for Silent Night'.  I'm going back to the very first Christmas for my silent night.  


I all looks very serene doesn't it. 

Please pop over and join in the fun.

Thanks for reading.

Christmas for the Galz

 Afternoon all.  It's time for the new challenge over at Cardz4galz and, just like Tuesday's Guyz challenge, we are looking for 'Christmas' projects.  It makes no odds how many cards I make throughout the year, I still end up rushing about making more come December.  I'm using my very old stash for this one.


I need to do all my Winter cards in July so I can get a decent picture before the dark days.

Thanks for reading.
