Oh Baubles!

 I have a friend who, when frustrated, says 'Oh Baubles' instead of swearing.  She's the inspiration for my choice of theme for this month's Sparkles Christmas Challenge.  Somewhere on you project I would love to see some baubles please.

I need to add a greeting  but my desk is a mess and I couldn't find my Christmas dies before I took a picture.

Please pop over and join in the fun.

Simply Moovalous

 Morning all.  We are going all CAS over at  Make My Monday this week.  I bought a fun set of clip art over on Etsy and had a ball creating these.  I'm going to do more when I get the chance as I think they are so cute.  

I'm not very good at CAS but I'm so chuffed with these.  The sentiments are from a set by Dr Digi and it was so easy to print them out along side the adorable Cows.

Thanks for reading.

A Corrugated Card

 Still catching up with this weeks posts.  This time we have 'T for Texture' over at The Alphabet Challenge.  I was lucky to have a couple of scraps of ridged card in colours that looked good together.  I used gold for my matting and die cutting and kept it very simple.

I turned out better than I expected.  I love those colours together.  Please pop over and join in the fun.

Pink Posey Club

 Morning all.  Sorry this is late.  Over at Cardz4galz this week we would like some 'pink flowers' on your projects please.  I'd seen a lovely card on Pinterest a while ago that was very dark but had pink flowers on so this is my interpretation of it.

I used deep purples and blue for my background and gold for the accents.  I think the the pink looks stunning against the deeper colours. I'm so please with this one and I hope it will inspire you to join our challenge.

Let's go on an Adventure

 Morning all.  I hope you are all well and looking forward to a new 'Cardz4guyz theme.  We couldn't get more perfect for the men this month with 'Epic Adventure' for a subject.  I have some more fabulous paper scavenged by Howard from the recycling shed.  I couldn't believe my luck with this set as I knew this challenge was coming up.

I won't be short of ideas for the fellas for a while.  I think the papers are Stamperia.  They are certainly fun and full of ideas for adventures.

Please pop over and join the fun.

Is it still snowing where you are.

 Well, we've had some very seasonal weather this week.  The water in the marina is frozen and the ducks are walking.  We've also had some snow - much to the delight of our dog, Ava.  She loves it and reverts to a puppy.  I'm not so keen.  I prefer paper snowflakes, which is good as that's just the theme of this months challenge over at Sparkles Monthly.

I'm so pleased with how this one turned out.  The pink and silver glitter card looks lovely layered together.  

Please pop over and join in the fun.

Patterned Paper - You mean I have to break into my stash!

 Morning all.  Today we have the 1st Make My Monday challenge of the year.  We have the challenge 'Use Patterned Paper'.  If you are anything like me you will have more paper than you can use in a lifetime.  I chose to use some of the paper that Howard brought for me from the re-cycling shed. It's a Heartfelt Creations pad and has some lovely toppers too.

I did use scraps from my previous card but I broke into a new sheet as well.  I may have to go for a lie down now.  Breaking into a new sheet! I must be mad.

Thanks for reading.
