Lovely Barry...

Last month I won some Stamp Fairy images... nearly all the ones I chose were 'Barry' - he's SO cute!

Sweet Stampin' - through the window

Happy Saturday everyone :o)

I'm here with my DT card for Sweet Stampin', where this week's challenge is 'through the window'... so stamps featuring windows, or any other way you can come up with to use some sort of window.  We're sponsored by Sew Sweet who are offering our lucky winner a £10 voucher for their online store, and Joanna Sheen is our monthly sponsor with another £10 voucher.

I've had this lovely stamp for ages and have finally got round to using him.  I'm being quite good at using my un-inked stamps lately... there's still an enormous amount of digis and stamps I haven't used though... and I keep buying more, which doesn't help!

Without Words - things that go bump!

Ooh I'm a bit late posting this (sorry Squirrel!), I got carried away in the craft room and this is the first chance I've had to blog all day!

Our new challenge for this month at Without Words is 'Things that go bump!'... so Halloween, magic etc, but basically we'd like to see you colour using darker colours.  I wasn't at all sure what I was going to do for this challenge, but then I thought I'd do a bit of a Harry Potter theme for Morgan's birthday card.  It's probably not quite as CAS as it should be for Without Words, but would you believe my son isn't keen on CAS?!  The more fuss and bling the better... for both my boys actually lol.
