I'm trying to build up my card stock at the moment and its taken a while because I lost my crafting inspiration for a while! I think that I've got it back now though! I would really appriciate any feedback! Thanks xx

I think that this is my favourite one! The image is from a Laura Ashley paper that I decoupaged! I just love the Laura Ashley stuff! I'm not really sure where I got the background paper from but I thought that it really went well with the image!

Christmas Cards!!!

Yeah I know what your thinking but I came accross my Christmas craft stuff when doing a bit of a tidy up and thought why not! I do love making Christmas Cards! Seeing as its exactly 6 months until Christmas I thought that instead of rushing about at the last minute as usual I would start early! All feedback greatly received! (there are more to come!)

Florries ATC Challenge

Florries ATC challenge this week was set by Shazzapat and the theme is "Mellow Yellow." I just love yellow so I knew that I had to enter! I thought that I would make it a bit of a summertime theme too with the bugs and butterflies on it!

Buttons and Beads

The theme on Funky Fairy Challenge blog is 'Buttons and Brads," which as usual is a great theme. I know loads of people that are pregnant at the moment so I thought I would make a baby card this week. The papers and stickers are from my local poundland, the buttons are papermania. I'm not sure where I got the image from but I think that it really suits this card. I hope that you like it!

Eyelets and Brads

The challenge on My Time To Craft Challenge blog this week is "Eyelets and Brads." Well seeing as I am still playing with my crop a dile and everything has eyelets in it at the moment! I am trying to build up my card stock at the monent and this is a card I made yesterday. I made the topper a while ago and the backround paper is from Lakeland and it is finished off with some ribbon and a greeting from Redicut. Thanks for looking :)

This is my first go at the front cover for our envelope book! Other members of 7th Heaven (and anyone else!!) I would love to know what you think!

3 Challenges

First of all I would like to thank you all for all of your lovely comments. It really is nice to get some feedback from fellow crafters. Todays entry is all about challenge blogs - I have entered 3! I am really loving having to do something different and thinking outside my normal crafting abilities.


This card was made for the Scrummy Stash Cafe challenge blog. The challenge this week was "Something Different." No normal shaped cards or scrapbook layouts allowed!!!! So seeing as I had a 40th birthday card to make for someone on Crafting Corner Forum I thought that I would incorporate this. The picture doesnt really show the card vary well though.

This is my very first go at a scrapbook page. I love this photo of my mum and stapdad at their wedding with all of mum's side of the family. I wanted to keep it really simple because really the photo and the title say it all. Eventually I am going to make mum a scrapbook of the family (hopefully before she decides to move to Crete!) As I have used just a small bit of ribbon on this (I usually use more!) I thought that I would enter it into the "My Time To Craft Challenge" which is ribbons this week.
Finally (for today anyway!) the "Funky Fairys Challenge Blog" this week the challenge is "going Dotty." I ordered a crop a dile and recieved it yesterday (I know I'm probably the last crafter in the country to get one!) so I used it on this ATC. I think that the paper is from Papermania and so is the paper flower.
