<br /><div>well its a QVC craft day and for the 1st time in ages managed to get a day off work to see it all!!! So I've been trying to make the most of it!! There probably will be loads of posts today. The first one is a Christmas card made from some Kanban toppers that I found in my stash and to be honest I don't know why I didn't use it last year. I've kept it really simple (like a lot of my cards are) as the robin topper is so good I didnt want to distract from it. I have glittered the berries on the topper and used some basic matting and layering. The greeting is from Kanban too. I'm going to enter it into "<a href="http://simplylessismoore.blogspot.com/2011/08/week-29-theme.html">Less Is More</a>" which this week is a theme of things that move. I hope you all like it :)<img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5644823892934399554" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUqBhBVgvJFInQIGTOaWANaZhu0Niou0hCzXuFfQwCY82vNVNjFX8GBA1qZ_7uUjrtbZLWSefNtt6scvGj5FDSqv-6PaP0QlVHshOMUG9V0AINVCNVVCWscjTcshpFMucva67SwLONszIb/s320/2011-08-25+14.59.38.jpg" /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5644823888076495778" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiADfOuRcGUDLpjkKyjAEuyf6wLwhyphenhyphenqPtSggvH7qHaefwNU-lsIJIiY5kCGG0FfPp-M8n1_qpdQbp2lISmpjQUa5zWssrVdHLNwT6BZilGjSMz2SCWPfYpm4eqa5r0HVpvHxMV2mt9NDze8/s320/2011-08-25+14.59.44.jpg" /></div></div>

The image is the first stamp that I have bought from Lily of the Valley and I love it. The stamp is so clear and easy to use and so easy to colour. I know that it is typically a birthday image but I have adapted it to make it more of a Christmas card for my niece Victoria. It is her 1st Christmas this year and I'm so pleased with the way that this has turned out. The background paper is again from Bo Bunny's Christmas papers from last year. I'm entering it into 2 different challenges -<a href="http://simplylessismoore.blogspot.com/2011/07/week-25-recipe.htm"> Less is More (Ribbon and/or buttons)</a> and<a href="http://thesecretcraftersaturdaychallenge.blogspot.com/2011/07/challenge-144.html"> Secret Saturday Crafter (Numbers)</a></div><br /><br /><br /><div></div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5632878189951512242" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsoWKZKaBQjQg8h2tzzQ26dkkZOh22OSXe2fzrA_pKyj72WNwpYPR07VdcGPbIbsxF8wNW0Xvv_ZV1ne3IZHaJj2DvtaG2hIOAa8cWLAS1vcYO6XQ3CmBax1VsL88ZfDrpZt0r-MsQLCzz/s320/2011-07-24+12.09.27.jpg" /><br /><br /><br /><div></div>tinkerbellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08441117706620386519noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-572460522283326428.post-70707366097306282782011-07-24T09:27:00.004+01:002011-07-24T09:40:19.293+01:00holly and the ivy<div>I've had this inkadinkadoo stamp for ages and never really found the correct paper or use for it and yesterday while sitting in the sunshine it came to me!! (I know a christmas card while I'm sitting enjoying the summer!!!!!) I think that it will be perfect for my grandmother, I need a greeting for it but I am not sure how to finish it off. The paper is last year's Bo Bunny's St Nick Sleigh (I love Bo Bunny papers and if you haven't checked out their blog and their website they are amazing!!) and the ribbon is one that I got from a set from Studio 24. I am going to enter it ito this weeks challenge at Winter Wonderland which is "<a href="http://christmasblogchallenge.blogspot.com/2011/07/holly-and-ivy.html">The Holly and the Ivy</a>"</div><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5632835756664818530" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhr0POUmbng72TMyG_zHKfUVAXdFY35_L3jWgJBX0ZueKA1HQe19CfDK7DByKtmmEw38-uX-x3xKtvvBAebYxl5jI9C-gNFD6e6px6RMLxu3wJGdUwT9wZMcrwx6fGsNvpsOkoVJ0NN6-Pb/s320/2011-07-24+09.22.43.jpg" /> <br /><div></div>tinkerbellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08441117706620386519noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-572460522283326428.post-65145608528129378732011-07-22T11:07:00.005+01:002011-07-23T13:36:36.678+01:00no pink or blue<div>Hi people I've had major camera issues recently so not been able to upload any pics until now (got a new phone !! seeing as I still cant find my camera charger!!) anyway I'm really pleased with this card that I made for one of my best friends 21st. My crafting mojo still isnt completlely back but I'm getting there. She is pregnant with her first baby at the moment so she couldnt enjoy it as much as she would have like too, Lol!!! I think that the black and red makes it a really dramatic card. The image is a Greeting Farm stamp and I die cut the numbers with my beloved cuttlebug. I'm entering it into this weeks theme at <a href="http://craftycatzweeklychallenge.blogspot.com/2011/07/challenge-92-no-pink-or-blue-allowed.html">Crafty Catz Weekly challenge </a>which is no blue or pink</div><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5632525564947946706" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKq-ElaNYehQfBaVyoP-itFkH47DaQEGtBkP9eQa2RDIHjzrqOA1ry1Cx18op7_NyzNiVfVTGVUPxX66VTWFieUKVaQxRNWF2HJ7hSx6Kl8p22FnpycpAaQwpdziRcp9Q5kkDhBkzY6Fqg/s320/2011-07-21+08.50.46.jpg" /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><div></div>tinkerbellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08441117706620386519noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-572460522283326428.post-34883274717666740442011-06-25T20:03:00.007+01:002011-06-25T20:35:14.343+01:00less is more<div>As I mentioned in me previous post I have done a bit of blog hopping today and I came across a great blog called "<a href="http://simplylessismoore.blogspot.com/2011/06/week-21-sketch.html">less is more</a>." I do like cards that are as simple as possible (as you can probably tell from my other cards on this blog) Well this week they have a sketch which I was really inspired by and thought that this would be a great chance to start on my Christmas cards for this year. I have layered 3 snowflake toppers (that I have had in my stash for ages so I'm not really sure where they have come from) over glittered paper (you can't do Christmas without a bit of glitter!!) and finished off with a peel off statement. I think that this is going to be an ongoing theme for my christmas cards this year as I'm really pleased with the end result. </div><br /><br /><br /><div></div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 241px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5622241032289081826" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVdDyibQcEHRvJQ6Nrw5jXyAZ8RHPh6hQxOLqGbijRGhdY3fr_NsP-oTz9WihlIZyPMcxtdlJsyqqpZPZ_Y0J_A7l8BnRXSa_YbKL7EvMkeUgQlGrRqw2e_cgO-9xfDgjeu7tYuK9FeNA8/s320/IMAG0066.jpg" />tinkerbellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08441117706620386519noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-572460522283326428.post-28609879104481103112011-06-25T19:20:00.009+01:002011-06-25T20:34:29.399+01:00something old and something new<div><br /><div><br /><div>As you already know my crafting mojo has not been around recently and I'm trying so hard to get it back so a lot of blog hopping has been helping. I have come accross a new one (to me anyway) is called sweet stamping. The challenge over there this week is <a href="http://sweetstampinchallengeblog.blogspot.com/2011/06/something-old-something-new.html">Something old, some thing new</a>, which means you need to use something that you have recently bought and something that has been in your stash for ages. Well my card is the first one I have been really proud of in ages and was for my friends wedding. The new item is the image stamps that I have used which were from the<a href="http://www.qvcuk.com/ukqic/qvcapp.aspx/view.2/app.detail/params.item.591115.cm_scid.ItemNumberSearch"> QVC Kanban TSV </a>a few weeks ago - which I wasnt sure about when I saw them - I really ordered it for the auto delivery Christmas one which I loved - but I love them now they give a really clear crisp image. The old item was the embossing powder,the base card and the wedding message. I hope you like it :)</div><br /><br /><div></div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 241px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5622229524674690498" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnazY4syHB59S-z5l1H-RPr9gUUllelHE4A22Ak7xX_9Is-qMRzQ7CWbZOPeYwbJXTS1EDSJnjxQ4EMY50DkPy2jJluF8MgM95OCEaSRi2s9_LTIrTC03rqdMtNtrFuD0Qn4XSAONwmp8B/s320/IMAG0040.jpg" /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div></div></div>tinkerbellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08441117706620386519noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-572460522283326428.post-2770517798905258872011-06-15T21:15:00.004+01:002011-06-15T21:34:30.878+01:00oh boy, oh boy<div><br /><div>well here starts the catch up with my blog! still can't believe that its been so long since I've been on it. Anyway seeing as its fathers day on Sunday <a href="http://cupcakecraftchallenges.blogspot.com/">cupcake blog challenge </a>is "boy oh boy" Well I always find my dads cards much more difficult than any other male cards (and I find them really difficult anyway!!) For this card I have made a typically girly image a bit more masculine with the colours. This is a fizzy moon stamp imaged coloured with my promarkers (which I am still loving) with an embossed dotty background with my amazing cuttlebug. I definately would not be without either my promarkers or my 'bug!! Hope you like it :)<img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 241px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5618546440121506450" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCbdUhbco3UG7BrOaYCSmzcwjhqo3Mg71d6xkILrRZuZxnuQQvKEPTfKsXPe8OUbZVQyy40ctPe6wZz2lk2b3uZ2Qc_kG3kRuFnwMpPTrHf1sp8AuPmO6ZXCY2oW_7cSnj3Ni_DVmPJZr_/s320/IMAG0061.jpg" /></div></div>tinkerbellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08441117706620386519noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-572460522283326428.post-21463178577365295512011-06-06T13:37:00.002+01:002011-06-06T13:41:52.249+01:00can't believe it!!my goodness its been ages since I've posted on here!! and so much has happened too!

I wasnt going to bother getting any but while doing a lot of blog hopping and everyone goes on about them so much I thought I would give them a go. Well I'm so glad that I did!!! I love them!!!! In fact I liked them so much I bought another pack lol!!!! I bought a Christmas pack and then the primary colours pack (with a few extras as well!!) Anyway todays card is the fairytale tilda made into a Christmas card, she is sitting on a bench that came in the Xmas patchwork pals set from QVC layered over my favourite cuttlebug Christmas tree and finished off with pink satin ribbon.

Anyway I made this card the other day and its a variation on the pastel christmas one that I ave already posted. The bakground is embossed dots from a cuttlebug embossing folder layered over pearlesant turquoise card with turquoise glitter and then a papermania felt snowflake with silver gems over the top. I love these simple cards at the moment, they are really elegant and effective. I'm going to enter this into <a href="http://movingalongwiththetimes.blogspot.com/">Moving along with the Times </a>challenge this week which is Christmas and <a href="http://cutecardthursday.blogspot.com/2010/08/challenge-124-whateva.html">Cute Card Thursday </a>which is Whateva.</div><br /><div></div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5502585205787884274" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0L7HuAn5tCXRZdCzaUO9FON7AyZGo_qGE50aU4rXohskHTwYKsaf3Q8MbvF-HGTiVOXTcXZ2enYz7fjBFGH1shNVyHUUsR9nyrdmttaEiZeXy84zq7yLRDQTFP2rAvoZYuzL_oXyXF03r/s320/CIMG2903.JPG" /><br /><div></div>tinkerbellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08441117706620386519noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-572460522283326428.post-81516070460496277372010-08-02T20:00:00.002+01:002010-08-02T20:04:41.916+01:00Blog Candy Winner :)I was having a wee look through the blogs that I follow today and found out that I won the blog candy on the very talented <a href="http://lolo612.blogspot.com/">lori's</a> blog.

I bought one of the new Papermania embossing folders for my Cuttlebug. I think that this image is so detailed so I didnt want to mess up the image so embossed on some glossy white card, added some pale turquoise glitter and layered over turquoise card and added a peel off. I am really happy with this card (for the first time in ages). I hope the DT team at <a href="http://cupcakecraftchallenges.blogspot.com/2010/07/challenge-101pastel-christmas.html">Cupcake Challenge </a>like it also because I'm going to enter it in their challenge this week which is pastel Christmas</div><br /><div></div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5498996638981624738" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUsdS_oU7DRQ73K5Qqslr83DXX3dhPVbTzItfZM-WMxJWSKDAhp6CpPIcpdwK4Yi2hsCEzugkVqT1aHDEB27J93U3TAqLdA2J33hIji-ReZj-1swdQbOFw5F_8Ap9FO0zX46i77qVy3g0Z/s320/CIMG2882.JPG" /><br /><div></div>tinkerbellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08441117706620386519noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-572460522283326428.post-57794831480689367322010-07-28T16:21:00.003+01:002010-07-28T17:26:38.573+01:00Vintage Christmas<div>Well my mojo still hasnt totally returned but it getting there, I have had a great day today blog hopping, found some new blog challenges and looking through some amazing talents out there! Well one of the challenge blog that I found today is the Crafty Pad. This week the challenge is vintage and you can see the DT samples <a href="http://thecraftypad.blogspot.com/2010/07/challenge-81and-our-newest-dt-members.html">here</a> I thought this would make an excellent chance to make another Christmas card because this is not my normal style. The image is from Joanna Sheen a few years ago (I found it in my stash), layered over gold satin card and some vintage style papers that I found in my stash (im not sure where they are from, sorry) and coloured the edges with a dark red ink. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5498994189489523426" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMBTXRxu45u2aNu2J_1MQzwTIeGEOIMPOrC1M3n1qnfs9ttezXWhv9waSKBmnWLEpT2iFohjXF71Vj6MwZpbE3TyoJM1sq_Sx7OvVuIpUyYoLoKIybFapqhmHhGd-wxKEJkQzSSI_nSHhv/s320/CIMG2883.JPG" /></div>tinkerbellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08441117706620386519noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-572460522283326428.post-6471475113314047942010-07-26T07:01:00.003+01:002010-07-26T07:15:51.159+01:00Christmas in July<div>As you can see from my blog you would think that its Christmas now!! (mind you I did see that some card shops in town are starting to get theirs in too!!)Any way I have found a new challenge blog called "the cuttlebug spot" and I just love my cuttlebug!! You can see the designs by the DT <a href="http://thecuttlebugspot.blogspot.com/2010/07/christmas-in-july.html">here</a>. Well this is a variation on a card that I made earlier in the week but I think that it looks better with the gold and red combination, its so subtle but effective. I do love this embossing folder!</div><br /><div></div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5498093883110940946" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh49F52MAoZ2cD-HzqBNE3PNzSQxHejxWfoEb-DNgnry5VpZWIlHK61XziM402SGdvDX1cQr7Dg35TU3LTSjJ4MKRJVoaBk4KRBjsw5e0B1Qbj1Mc0FiG1dIut0-Heo2CPUOk1YQ-RH5ctD/s320/CIMG2881.JPG" /><br /><div></div>tinkerbellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08441117706620386519noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-572460522283326428.post-31226656775151116982010-07-25T10:46:00.002+01:002010-07-25T10:58:15.444+01:00Christmas Scene<div>my card making mojo has totally gone this week (I spent yesterdays crafting shows on QVC trying to craft and made 1 card!!!) so my cards at the moment are not my usual quality! I'm getting really annoyed with myself about it! Anyway this is the one card that I made yesterday for the Bah Humbug blog challenge which this week is Christmas Scene, the DT samples (which are amazing as always) can be seen <a href="http://bah-humbug-christmas.blogspot.com/2010/07/challenge-28-christmas-scene.html">here</a> I have used the Percy and Penelope stamp that I just love, coloured with glitter gel pens and used tiny gems that I bought from ebay. The background card is part of the patchwork pals kit that I bought from QVC and then used snowflake brads in the background</div><div> </div><div> </div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5497780849615528306" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNi1SefGmmGvC9_iFIssT-gNWA4Xbgs9FP2Eqnx4Vi5k3DgYCVcjAlNzxRd5q5U_y3N1t5-5UXZ4XEs8gg2gBBnik6X8bVqp71o0XedSrmSl5qFs2SN5fNFIlaYqsOAlYbPD4T7uQpg8U-/s320/CIMG2880.JPG" /><br /><div></div><br /><div></div>tinkerbellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08441117706620386519noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-572460522283326428.post-25134185381519184862010-07-22T08:14:00.005+01:002010-10-11T09:40:29.138+01:00Candle Stamping!!This is the first time I have tried stamping onto candles and finally got it right! Its going to be a bit of a tight Christmas this year so thought that these would make great extra add in for pressies for friends and family (and cheaper than chocolates) I have been experimenting with colours and colouring mediums. (and still need to find the perfect stamp for them too but I'm sure I will get there!!) Let me know what you think.<br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5496644808163053282" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcezG59csuwSoJCnEk2W2p7AhRHKFTOZrdvCEEEdsoa-6ez-6KCtmlZxlziSLnhNob3zUz_2Kf5tqHiX6qvwwXeQY_kMgebNi8wMLy5TRvhIdf9HW9yxX0GSh7Vh5qk1m5nO2RFHxfYGTV/s320/CIMG2875.JPG" />tinkerbellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08441117706620386519noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-572460522283326428.post-53985639647575633712010-07-20T20:43:00.005+01:002010-07-20T21:04:05.783+01:00Die Cut Dreams DT call<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEga22eVo1VSPHMialMbZw0bAb6PVWkHt9GPNBxpGTtVC7kTqnSHQsAIvI9S8xjnY-jAvwerRNvkvOfU34_n3MmoFPhT_Wnu861-2z_5THPrmGO9hkNG73eE666BDAHAMitJvh2iV8SqHR1V/s1600/CIMG2873.JPG"></a><br /><div><div><div><div>Well over on the <a href="http://diecutdreams.blogspot.com/">Die Cut Dreams challenge </a>blog the design team are looking for another DT member. Well I thought I would give it a go!!!! The theme is Pink and Girly (which if any of you know me is just made for me!!) Well if you have been on my blog recently you will notice that I'm really into Christmas cards at the moment so I thought that I would give a really girly card. The image is my favourite Tilda image (at the moment) she is coloured using glittery gel pens and I have highlighted the crown with red glitter for the holly berries. I have layered her over an embossed Christmas tree from a Cuttlebug embossing folder with tiny gems (that I bought from ebay) for the lights. The background is stamped with this years Xmas set from Inkadinkado and the flowers are from Papermania. I hope that you like this :)</div><div></div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5496080636173347170" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2DnOaZtYYHGbuziP0OXM9iwRYOQS5L3dxfrvYPKVAmBf_QO2LmWeywDvNbZJ6tlQ27MvUD8JNLbHCOsB5tlz64gAXjfwhIy6EXtO9cPMxYPMNcYVNYl3IgwYczhn-ARDrk-K8kM8b2dqa/s320/CIMG2870.JPG" /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5496080627639893890" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQTdqY9xU2te1BATRZUkT0dagvfAboabpVy6k2YSoPi8spD5yPuW349knfGc_io8ZpUxxDUk8XzgtL6zf1YxNVSD3CwfUIFHWr5gUG8OUMM5WaAYf9ivqyTQHAde9CwhmUxtsnAnn0Bvd_/s320/CIMG2871.JPG" /><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div>tinkerbellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08441117706620386519noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-572460522283326428.post-53787132111854783692010-07-10T07:48:00.002+01:002010-07-10T07:53:52.087+01:00Pink Jem CandyJanet from Pink Jem has some great blog candy to give away by 31st July, just post a link on your blog linking to hers (and the candy) and you're in a chance of winning.
