New hair!

Finally went for the chop (big time!) after approx 14 years of long hair. Waist length to this is a big change, and I'm not sure if I like it yet. Still, it will grow on me (sorry, bad pun!) You only get a shot of the back - just out of the shower so the front is not presentable. And, yes, I am wearing pink kitty pyjamas - every girl should own a pair.

Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge - New Beginnings

For the challenge of 'New Beginnings' over at Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge I've made this New Home card. I used the stamp I bought last week, and cut off the cat & mouse part (mainly because I didn't stamp it properly, and they were a bit blurry!) After colouring in the dog, I realised he really needed a kennel, so I sketched on out and added a new home sign. Hope you like him!

Cute Card Thursday - For Jadie!

Suddenly realised that that time of year is approaching, when my nephew and my two neices have thier birthdays with three weeks of each other! Here's the card I've made for Jadie, and I've tied it in to the Cute Card Thursday challenge to add letters or numbers. I hope she likes it!

Papertake Weekly - animals

Went to a car boot sale this morning (there's a surprise!), and picked up a lovely lot of stuff. I got two 12x12 paper packs, 5 rubber stamps, and a huge bag of Fimo - for the grand total of £9! How chuffed am I?!
I've used some of the papers and one of the rubber stamps on this card for the Papertake Weekly theme of 'Animals'.

Sketch Saturday #50

I've used the sketch over at Sketch Saturday to make a card for Mum's birthday. I'm very tired, so my cutting isn't as straight as it should be!

Sneaky sneak!

It'll be a while before you see this in all it's glory, as it's a present for someone, but I couldn't resist giving a little sneak preview!

Cute Card Thursday Challenge

Decided on a Christmas card for the 'Mirror Mirror' challenge at Cute Card Thursday where you have to add something shiny to your card.
My card has a lovely shiny, glittery star and a piece of shiny ribbon. I'm not sure where the papers are from, but the lovely lady coloured in with shiny glittery gel pens is Mildred's Mamma, another character I have drawn today!

Sketch Saturday Card

Really love this sketch over at Sketch Saturday
The papers are from K&Company's La Boutique 6x6 pad, and the butterfly is from a lovely set I got in Tesco last week - only £1 for loads of lovely butterflies and flowers.
And if you're wondering where I got pretty little Mildred from, well (blows own trumpet) I drew her myself! I drew a little man for a card the other day, and now can't stop drawing! I've got loads of little people ready to go on cards now!

Secret Crafter Saturday challenge

Over at Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge" the theme for this week is 'Flowers'. So it's a lovely excuse to make another card with my fantastic '£2 at the car boot sale' stamp on some lovely flowery paper!

Sketch & Stash challenge

Sorted out my sock drawer yesterday and found an opened set of 6 Papermania ribbons - can't remember buying them, and have no idea how they got there!
Anyway, have used one of the ribbon on this card for the Sketch & Stash challenge. Hope you like it!
