A Note of Thanks - Craft Mojo DT

Happy Saturday everyone :o)

I'm here with my DT card for Craft Mojo, and I've been playing with goodies from my latest order and DT package... and Sally has so many lovely new products arriving all the time, there's another package on its way to me now - can't wait to get my hands on it lol!

I'm not completely happy with this card, but I did have lots of fun playing with inks and stamps and sometimes that's all that matters.  The enamel sprinkles started out white, and I altered them with silver Alcohol Ink that I've had for ages and never used.

I'll be back with another Craft Mojo card tomorrow... Hope you all have a lovely evening :o)

Jasmine - Sugar Nellie DT

Hello everyone :o)

I've had my Sugar Nellie card ready to post all day, but haven't been able to get the photos off the camera... not sure whether it's a camera or laptop issue, but luckily hubby managed to sort it for me when he got back.  The laptop has also started randomly switching itself off, which is quite irritating too!

Anyway, here's today's card...

This is Jasmine, and I had a bit of an oops moment when I was colouring her - I coloured all the skin, then realised the top of her legs is actually leggings, not skin!  I've coloured her before so I'm not sure why I did it wrong this time... I gave her socks, and hopefully she looks ok lol!  Her wings look odd too, but are actually painted over with Wink of Stella and look lovely and shimmery in real life.

BBQ Chester - Little Miss Muffet DT

Hello everyone :o)

I'm doing a very happy dance today, because the head teacher at Morgan's first choice school got the ok to add an extra class... so he's in... yay!!!  So I now have a very happy boy, just about bouncing off the walls with excitement... hope he likes it there after all this fuss to get in lol.

Onto my make for today, and it's my DT card for Little Miss Muffet using a super cute Chester image.

I've been playing with my Cameo again - the apron shaped card is a Lori Whitlock cut file, and I also tried out the Print & Cut feature for the first time to cut Chester out... one Chester was severely harmed while I was trying to get it to work though, poor thing.

Thanks to everyone who commented on Morgan's school place yesterday... things are looking a teeny bit more positive today, fingers crossed.  There are 35 children on the waiting list for Morgan's first choice school (he's number 19 on the list apparently), and the headteacher wants to create an extra class... it's what they did last year, and they did manage to take all the extra ones last year.  The headteacher's had a meeting with the governors, and we just have to wait for the decision now... eek!

Off to scoff some pancakes now lol... Hope you all have a lovely evening :o)

Without Words - hobbies & leisure

Hello everyone :o)

It's time for a new challenge at Without Words, and this month our theme is 'hobbies & leisure'... so I used the lovely James on his laptop, a bit like me at the moment (except I'm not cute and furry...)

Items Used

(not many, as this is about as simple as it gets!)

Kraft card blank - Anna Marie Designs

Stamp - James Laptop - LOTV

Colouring - copics

Sentiment stamp - Penny Black

I'm entering my card for the following challenges
Delightful - keep it simple
Chocolate, Coffee & Cards - teddy bears
Sweet Stampin' - cute
CAS on Sunday - colour me pretty

I'm very fed up today, as we found out that Morgan hasn't got into his first choice secondary school... he was completely set on going there and wouldn't even visit any other schools.  He's got his second choice, which is a good school and most of his friends are going there, but really we only filled in the other two choices so that he didn't end up with our catchment school which is in special measures at the moment, it's that bad!  He's been in tears this morning, but he's calmed down and more or less accepted it now.... very disappointed though.  Apparently 90% of children got their first choice school, which is about typical for us.

I'll be around for a catch up with your blogs later... Hope you have a lovely evening :o)

Bubbles Loves Bubbly - Craft Mojo DT

Happy Saturday everyone :o)

I'm here with my DT card for Craft Mojo, and for today's card I've been playing with one of the gorgeous Stamping Bella Uptown Girls... ooh I just love these stamps, I'd have them all if I could lol.

I cut an aperture for the image to sit behind, and raised the green spotty layer up with foam pads - not sure whether you can really tell from the photo though!

I'm entering my card for the following challenges
Divas by Design - make it sparkle
Totally Gorjuss - happy birthday
Stampin for the Weekend - sparkle & shine
As You Like It - favourite 3d item
(until recently this would have been pearls, but I'm in love with Enamel Sprinkles at the moment - they come in lots of lovely colours & different sizes, and they're flatter than pearls, so easier/ cheaper to post!)

Off for a little catch up with your blogs... Hope you all have a lovely evening :o)
