more vintage...

I am fast running out of this gorgeous paper series...

one of the free gifts....

circles from my newly acquired pennant die for the Big Shot,

and that cute cute cute ruffled ribbon....

Create....

A couple more to inspire......

love the soft colours of this one,

the trick of tying thread to make the butterfly antenna,

and a lush pearl to finish.....

I still can't believe the amazing sale-a-bration deal with SU at the moment,

and this is part of the free designer series paper set.....

using the lovely new velvet ribbon, that you sadly can't feel on the pic!,

one of the die-cut labels, layered with another that I cut around, and the top layer is the small oval punch,

and of course the little butterfly, and some of those adorable pearls add the finishing touch.

Flooring is being laid in the new extension tomorrow yipee!!!!!

Hoping to start "moving- in" at the weekend...

so watch this space, because......

new craft room, here I come!

(might take me a while.....what with all those zillions of boxes to sort, 

but I will try and keep you posted with the progress!)

Can you sense my excitement!

Hi there!

I've been a bit side-tracked as usual!

Builders are still on the job, but we're nearly there.....

so meantime a few card pics to inspire......hopefully!

spice cake papers, gorgeous ruffled and crochet ribbon, and a few pearls....

simple layout, and enjoyed using the neutrals cardstock too...edible colours!

Number ONE!

Here's to the first Birthday

of my second GREAT Nephew!

Not anywhere near as good as the cake his Mum made!

Snow blue...

I can't believe how many birthdays there are in January and February!

I'm struggling to keep up!, 

and I'm now worried I've posted some pics before the recipients have opened their cards!

I know I'm safe with this one......

Got the idea for this at Training, but was eager to use a fave background stamp...

it's such an elegant french script, "En Francais",

and "Charming", in crumbcake and pool party.

choc ice

Well, I got up at 3am as usual,........ to feed the cat (!!! ),

and all was quiet....all was WHITE eeek,

6 inches of snow!

So I thought I'd show you this card for a nephew who's favourite pudding,

is .........anything with chocolate!

devotiontothedream blog, has a much better example of this novel way of using the "cupcakes"!

Hope you are all keeping warm!
