Thanks to everyone who commented on my last post. I am fine just be glad when the crutches have gone. On a happier not here is a card I made for one of my lovely craftswap.co.uk forum pals, where I am a member of a birthday card list. That I have been doing for years and have met some lovely talented ladies.

The image is another lovely one from whiffofjoy.com and coloured in with copic markers,

The flower and little bitty butterfly are Angel Crafts and of course the flowers are blinged up with a wee bit of sparkle  using stickles.

Thank You card

This is a card I made for the lovely people from the caravan Park where I keep my caravan for all the help they have given me with choosing and setting up. I love the place. I made the card using a lovely Whiff of Joy stamp. and coloured her in with my pro markers. The flowers and ribbons are all from Angel Crafts. The gorgeous papers are from K & Co and I have blinged this all up with extra pearls and diamond stickles. I am going to enter this card into the challenge set by I love Pro Markers which is to do a card using pearls

It was Gary's Dad's Birthday Pete,the other day he is now in a home as he is unsafe to be left on his own after falling and breaking his shoulder then a week later falling and breaking the other. He is too old to operate but he is doing fine. Gary sees him every day but with his Birthday the whole family were there and the home had decorated his room with decorations and a balloon so nice of them.

This is the card I made for him with a Whiff of  Joy image and coloured with copic markers, the flowers and ribbons I used were from Angel Crafts,

Not to forget our little Susie dog who just had to get in on the action too, sitting with our youngest niece Natasha don't they look cute together. 

It was also our other nieces Birthday Nattalie on the same day so they always celebrate together every year.

Whiff Of Joy First Challenge

Well it is only fitting that the first rubber stamp challenge that I take part in is Whiff of Joy as these are the stamps that I first started using when I became addicted to stamping. The challenge is to use the colours yellow and green and a whiff of joy stamped image.I have used the 2009 Fall collection, and have coloured the stamped image in with my copic pens, and used K & Co papers. The flowers are from craft supplies I already have.

Need more hours in the day

Do you ever feel that you need more hours in the day. At this precise moment in time I do it is nearly Christmas already and I still have so much to do. I have lists for everything I could not function without them. I am getting through them but their is still so much to complete. How are you all getting on? tell me what you use to keep track of your festive preparations. I have completed my atc swap for the girls over at Craftswap. I used the Whiff of Joy stamps which I absolutely love, go and have a look they have a 20% sale on at the moment. I coloured with my copic markers another favourite of mine.
