We have a very exciting new sponsor this month - Little Miss Muffet Stamps who kindly gave the DT some images to play with. And so excited was I about using LMMS I used them all!!

OK I Was Wrong

Hello.

Yes, I was wrong about the sun yesterday, although it's sunny today which is nice. Not the tropical, warmer than Ibiza that was predicted - although I think that may have been meant for the south of England.

I was also wrong about not being able to do girly...... 

Tada.....

This is the card I made for the wee girl next door who had her 6th birthday last week. I've used a very old Sugar Nellie image - Strawberry Tea. I think it might have been one of the first stamps I ever bought and do you know what.... I think this is the first time I have used it!

Fabulous Birthday

Morning!

Breaking news.....there's a round ball in the sky, I'm not sure what it is. Should I phone Sky News?

As you know I recently celebrated my 29th birthday so lots of friends will also be celebrating a milestone this year, and this is one of the cards I've made so far!

I've used the LOTV big sentiments and teamed it with some glittery diecuts and gems. Nuff said really!

Wedding Buttons!

Hello.

Just a quick post tonight, but with a couple of things to show you. 

I was asked recently if I could do a wedding gift but my friend wasn't sure what she wanted, so a quick trawl of Pinterest gave me some ideas to share with me and she plumped for the button frame below. She also asked me to make a wedding card for the couple so I went with WOW for that.

Words - Tim Holtz for Sizzix

As far as the buttons go, I drew round a heart die and stuck the buttons in the outline (having first printed the page with the writing on it!).

A Marvellous Adventure

Hello.

It's been a bank holiday here today so I'm a bit out of sorts as I thought for a minute this was Sunday! 

This is a birthday card I made for Scott's friend. I've used Sassy Cheryl's Gilbert's Marvellous Adventure and some Tim Holtz stamps to add to the comic book effect.

Celebrate!

Hello.

Goodness, what has happened to the evening? I was full of plans but somehow the night has disappeared.

Today's card was one I made as an order for a 70th birthday. I struggled to think of what I was going to do and then I remembered I had this Saturated Canary image, perfect for a celebratory occasion.

Monster Birthday

Hello.

Just a quick post tonight as I wanted to share this card as I'm starting to fall behind in the old sharing department and I'll end up blogging cards that are months old just after Christmas....

This is a card for a friend at work who's birthday it is today. He loves cake! And biscuits and sweets.

Just before I go, it seemed like an appropriate point to share some birthday photos - Donny's wife made my birthday cake. Isn't it awesome?! I've also sneaked in a photo of the four of us. Sorry about that ;) 

Thanks for dropping by today.

18th Birthday Beers

Morning all.

Hope you're well. 

Today I'm sharing a card I made for one of the guys at work. Guess how old he was ;) I used this fab Mayzy Art image which I got just before Mayzy closed her shop. I kept the design fairly simple and not too fussy - I printed the barmaid a bit bigger than I would normally as I only wanted to use the top half of her!
