Tishy's birthday card - she does love her blues

A little easel card for daughter number two.  Used some papermania blue card base, some prima flowers, my flower xcut border punch, some wee flower gems from my stash and some pretty papermania designer papers again from my stash. The gorgeous butterfly is Anitas.

 
Haven't been around much, we have been slating the roof, and have half done now, the two dormers went in this last week on the front of the house just the last velux to go now, me and Will will tackle that this weekend and then we can slate the front. hmm, it all takes time and in my case oodles of energy (ZZZZZ) sorry not really that tired but you know where I'm coming from if you have ever done any major diy 'yourself'' hehe.
Kiddies have pretty much found all sorts of fun things to do, the caravan has been a hotspot for mini tea parties (too many sweeties lol) but they have been great.
Hope you have all been keeping well, I will pop round during this week to see everyone. xx

Delicious Doodles zebras, so so delicious

Beautiful image this by Delicious Doodles. I have made this card using some of my new papermania papers and some black bazill card. The black and white checked ribbon is from my stash as are the pretty butterflies. The gorgeous large flowers are also papermania, as is the wee black one under the buttons.
The buttons have been attached using some hemp.

The sentiment is from Stampin Up and the die is also from SU. I used a scrap of organza ribbon to make a bow as I felt it needed something as it floated around in the black space.

Simply layered the inside area.

Took an extra photo when the sun briefly came out. xx

Pollycraft for someone special

Coloured in with my promarkers and layered onto some black card and some pretty papers my friend eva gave me. I have punched out some colour co-ordinated circles from some designer Stampin up papers and added a metal sentiment with a wee gem on it.

The lower part of the easel card has been made in similar papers and I have echoed the three circle punches and topped with three large flower gems.

Pollycraft Jessy Drummer and a bit of a panic

Well for a while there I thought I wasn't going to get my blog back. This morning I got told blogger had disabled my blog etc etc. The only trouble was that I had not done anything naughty in any way to make them do this. So what was happening, guess what? I still have no idea why they did it, but they did. A quick email from the blogger guys and gals would be great to explain why they had to put me into a panic.  Blogging has become my outlet, not just to share my creations but also as a way to let off steam, well have a natter really with like minded crafters.
Well thats my grumble for the day, and I have probably missed a couple of the challenges that I made this card for but never mind eh, there's always the next challenge.
This is pollycrafts Jessy Drummer, the image was brilliant to colour and I used my promarkers.  The papers are all from my stash, some are snippets, including one snippet that I pinched from my friend Jenny's snippet box hehe. My Nephew will be 16 this week and this is for him. He used to play the drums at all hours but I think if I'm honest his ps3 is now his passion!!
I am hopefully entering this into the following challenges if I catch them in time.

Creative inspirations - use only your fave colour plus white
Joanna Sheens - Celebrations
Crafty Ann's Ch #57 - what's new pussycat?
