Celebration In A Box!

Hi Crafters

Last week it was my twin grandsons 16th birthday! Wow where does time go, so I decided to send them a celebration in a box. I love making boxes and to do it for someone you love is even better! So here are the two different boxes I made, as I always try to do them each a different theme.

Here is Box 1:

That tiny little remote control took some patience, those little colours are just a dot of colour!

I thoroughly enjoyed making this and I used so much stuff, I didn’t keep track of everything I used but I hope you get some inspiration from them.

Stay safe and well

Hello Again!

Hi Crafters

Well long time no see!

Since I last blogged life has been very fast, very furious and very very busy! So much so I got married, only a few weeks ago too! Still designing the album and getting the wedding photos perfected, but it won’t be long until I can share…….only the one or two mind!

Another really exciting thing is that I have been learning to colour and I would like to share with you today one of the latest digital images I have coloured.

She is called Summer Dreams and is from Conie Fong and she is a digital stamp and you can find her here.

Another beautiful creation from Conie Fong is Fairy Princess and this required a steady hand as she was only 3″ high and felt she deserved her very own miniature Princess garden.

Thank you for joining me today, and hope to see you very soon.

A Little Post

Hello Crafters

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and that you were given lots of lovely crafty things, I was thoroughly spoilt.

I wanted to say sorry for not being around, but time goes so quickly, and work keeps me from doing an awful lot of things, but if we didn’t work, we couldn’t buy all those crafty wants, so work we must!

I also have something else that has come into my life and taking a bit of my time, and her name is Frankie, a beautiful little Cavahuahua to keep my Chi-Apso company, but boy has she got energy!

 

I know what you are thinking, those ears are certainly a showstopper, but she is a very clever girl and likes a lot of attention. She is settling in very well, and we found her at a rescue centre on Facebook – dedictated to saving dogs – Silver Fox Dog Rescue.

Will is slowly getting use to sharing his space and toys too

Well coupled with all these new events, I am finding it very hard to find time to dedicate to my blog, so it is with much regret that I have decided that this will be my last post. I will still be visiting blogs and looking at all the wonderful creations, but just not posting my own, but wanted to say thank you very much for all your support over the few years I have been blogging. I will return once this annoyance called work finally comes to an end!

Here’s wishing you a stupendous 2019 and look forward to viewing your makes in the New Year.

Hello Crafters

What have you been creating this week or has life just got in the way? Well I just come across this little chap who just can’t help but make you smile as soon as you look at him….how sweet is he!

These stamps flew out the door when they first come out and I had to beg, steal and borrow just to get them, but so glad I did. So versatile for adults and children and any occasion you can think of, and you smile while you colour too 🙂

Just a quick pop in to share a card I made recently. Where does time go? It doesn’t fly anymore, it’s definitely supersonic!

It was a family members birthday and I wasn’t sure what to make until we found out that he enjoyed fishing, and well a massive light bulb switched on in my head. I remembered a scenic stamp set I had and bought a fisherman casting stamp, and it came out pretty much as my flash of inspiration depicted, so for once, I was pleased with the ‘mind’s eye’ to card transformation!

Ingredients:

• SERENDIPITY – Stampscene Nature Set 6 Lakeside Cabin
• MFT – Stitched Tags
• MEMORY BOX – Stitched Rectangle Layer
• CIRCA DESIGN – Celebration Numbers
• WOODWARE – Casting The Bait

Enjoy the rest of your evening, and while you are relaxing, have a look at my best little buddy, who has been incredibly patient as I am learning to groom him – good ol’ You Tube!
