Penny Black Bears are Back :)

It's our friends' little girl's First Birthday in just over a week (I think - best check that lol) I'd meant to use my Penny Black Bear Blank Stamps for her new baby card but I couldn't find them at the time so I made sure that I found them in time for her first birthday card. I was just going to put the number '1' in one of the squares but that meant only using one of the bears and he would have been lonely so I spelt the word instead so he could have a friend on the card lol. 

I found all the free papers that have come with my craft magazines over the years - I had a folder full of them so I've been trying to use some of them up, the colours of this paper was perfect for a girly card, reminds me of raspberry ripple ice cream lol.

Supplies: 'Bear Blank 2' & 'Bear Blank 3' Stamps by Penny Black, 'Simple Pleasures' Paper by Kay Miller Designs (free with Scrapbook Magazine), Promarkers, Paint Marker, Raspberry Ink Pad, White Ribbon

Anyways the theme for this month at the Happy Scrappers is Birthday celebrations - so I've got 2 layouts - they've been half finished for a while and the other one needed reworking a little bit but they're all stuck together now...this is me celebrating my 26th birthday a few years ago (I really need to get up to date with my scrapbooking)

Got another layout to put on too so gonna do 2 in one day cos otherwise I'll end up putting it off and won't get round to posting again for ages... XOX

Oh Joy Football AGAIN

Well there's been football on - yawn - and now rugby - yawn - and then more football - yawn. Really not fair that all the schedules get re-arranged for sports. Ah well will just have to start working my way through the DVD collection lol. So far have watched some Gossip Girl, then Music and Lyrics, onto the The Wedding Date now... but of course the plus side of the sport (and the rainy days) is that I've managed to get some crafting done, 2 cards and 1 and a half scrapbook pages. Couldn't get the title right on the second one so I've left that one for now - hoping that inspiration will strike by tomorrow when the football is back on lol.

Anyways here is the first of today's cards - 30th Birthday Card for One of our friends, it was his party last weekend and we took him to see John Bishop in Chester (brilliant if anyone is thinking of going to see him) and get him a pinata full of sweeties but his birthday isn't till next week so he's had to wait for his card. I'm not overly happy with the card (just when it doesn't match the picture you have in your head) but Ian likes it so I will resist the urge to pull it apart lol.

January Birthdays

Just a quick post cos I need to go and get a shower - been a good girl and been on the wii fit and then had a first go of the Zumba - and am knackered (just need to cool down before get in the shower). And have just ordered another wii fit game, got to lose the 1 stone 13lb I've put on since I was last on it. Managed to lose a stone last time so lets hope I can do 2 this time.

Anyways have ordered a set of stamps and die, can't wait for them to arrive, hoping their going to come in useful for scrapbooking as well as cards :) will show you when they arrive.

Well have only had to do one birthday card this week so here it is... looks very christmassy lol but I love that paper - pretty blues and whites. And got to finally ink up my Me to You stamp - stamped so clearly that doesn't look like I've done it lol. I added lots of glitter to the star and some shimmery blue ribbon to the image and then some of my favourite satin-y ribbon (next project is to get some of onto scrapbook pages otherwise I won't have any to 'keep' lol).

Supplies: Stamp by Me to You, Paper from Stash (sorry can't remember the brand), Ribbons from Stash, Blue Ink Pad, Promarkers, Sugar-Coating by Doodlebug

Back again as promised, are you proud of me for not getting distracted in those few mins between posts lol.

Anyways a break from the Christmas cards as one of my friends had a big birthday - yep she turned 30 (obviously when I get there next year it won't be a big birthday - though I think I will be having a 20-10th birthday instead lol. In my head I don't think I've even got to 20 yet lol. Anyways I used the mo manning image perfect for big birthdays with the message inside reading - 'it's no good sulking' lol. I then used the balloon from LCI Magnum Add-ons set and the masking technique to add some balloons to the image. Lots of glitter too - well it is one of my cards lol. The colours were picked by Ian cos Sarah is from Norwich - hope she likes it :)

Quickie

Just a quick post, had a busy weekend of card making but can't post those cards yet because I need to find my camera to take pictures - but I've made an engagement card for 2 of our friends (Matt FINALLY proposed to Emma - so congratulations to them), I've also made a get better soon card for Neil, who had his leg broken days before their first baby was due, and a New Baby card for Neil and Steph who had a little girl this morning. So congratulations (and get well soon) to them all - I'll get their cards on this week :)

Thank you for all the welcome back messages - it's lovely to be back on here, showing off the crafty stuff I've been up to :) XOX

PS does anyone know of any scrapbook challenges blogs? have just been picking my own challenges out - which is cheating a bit cos I can pick them with my own photos in mind lol XOX

Favourite Stamp

Ooops wasn't meant to take me this long to do another post, I'm not working at the moment and still can't seem to find time to do anything lol, shouldn't complain really but the job hunting is really getting me down at the moment especially as the longer it takes to find something the longer it'll be before we can get a house, but any how am sure the right job is out there somewhere... lol.

Anyways I've managed to get a few cards done the last few weeks and have also been getting stuck into my scrapbook - still got thousands of australia pictures to scrap so I'm starting with them (spent about 4 hours sorting them into order last night (yawn) lol. But anyway onto today's card - this was for one of Ian's mate's birthdays he's in the police and think he was made up with the image - it's one of my favourites and the challenge over at Ladybug Crafts Ink Challenge Blog is to use your favourite stamp :)

Supplies: Stamp and Sentiment Stamp by Ladybug Crafts Ink, 'Little Boy' Paper by Echo Park, Nail Heads by Ladybug Crafts Ink, Card by DCWV, Sugar-Coating by Doodlebug, Ink Pads, Copics, Promarkers, Glossy Accents, Gems

Right I'm off to get all my scrapbook stuff out... wish me luck xox

And at Long-last a post :)

Wow I can't believe it's been so long, computer problems, then when the computer had had a reinstall it seemed to have taken a dislike to blogger and wouldn't let me do anything, hopefully this is now finally sorted (the photos are on the draft so fingers crossed), then had a mad busy month and a bit in work. Work has finished so I'm back to job hunting but hopefully I'll have time to get some cards and scrapping done too, but I'm also trying to teach myself double entry bookkeeping :S not got my head quite round the basics yet but i'm finding it interesting (yep I'm that sad lol), and trying to get a list together of everything we're going to need for our first house so I can get as much together before we move and have no money lol. I think that's all I'm up to at the moment lol.

Anyways I've got a few cards and things to post that I've done the last few weeks so I'll be posting them as and when I can, first up is my entry in the Ladybug Crafts Ink July Challenge, which Kerry kindly posted on the site for me. This was Kate's 30th Card, she is a marine biologist (I think lol) unfortunately I didn't have any dolphin stamps and couldn't find any that I liked but then I remembered Mermaid Nikki by Ladybug Crafts Ink. She was pertfect and fitted into the marine theme that I wanted.

I coloured Nikki and the numbers up with my promarkers and copics, added about a ton of glitter (doodlebug sugar-coating) then added 2 layers of glossy accents (the first layer still looked really bumpy cos of the glitter). The seaweed was cut out from coordinates card and then decorated with glitter and glossy accents, based on a scrapbook page I made years ago :)

 

I also decided to make a canvas to go with the card, but didn't have a picture to go in it so decided to make a picture frame instead. I added a little drawing to fill in the gap where the photo will go so it looked a bit better when I sent it. I painted the canvas with acrylic paint (I had a bit of a mix up with the paint and added a load of pearly pain by mistake, but it added a nice pearly sheen to the canvas - I painted it in wavy lines so in reallife there's a wavy pattern on it). I added more seaweed to match the card.

 

I added glitter and glossy accents to the seaweed and added more glossy accents and gems to the canvas. I also stamped an extra couple of fish from the mermaid stamp and cut them out to add to the canvas. I added another fish to the seaweed.

Supplies: 'Mermaid Nikki' and Sentimental Numbers Stamps by Ladybug Crafts Ink, Coordinates Card, Glossy Accents, Doodlebug Sugar-Coating, Gems, Glimmer mist, Acrylic Paints

Right I think that's enough waffle for me - don't want to over-do it on my first day back lol XOX

Sorry for the delay - Blogger wasn't working last night when I tried to post last night and has been playing up today (will try and swap for a better pic later but this one will do for now). It's been a busy week, I've had an interview, been to the theatre (to see mamma mia - it was fab) been to the Trafford Centre and bought all kinds, and been for a really yummy meal and had a catch up with my cousin's wife, who I used to work with.

Anyways it's Friday AGAIN lol can't believe how quick the week has gone. And now it's time for another challenge over at Alphabet Challenge Blog - this week it's B for Brads and Bling - perfect excuse for lots of glitter and sparkle :) yay.

XOX

PS don't forget to head on over to the Challenge blog and see what the rest of the team have been up to XOX

Getting a Head Start

Hello, how nice have the last 2 weekends been!?! Makes such a nice change to have some good weather at the weekend instead of when I'm stuck in work lol. Missed most of last weekend in bed with a migraine but was out yesterday as my Dad was moving his boat down from up by widnes to Liverpool and he wanted us to take pictures. So we went up to take pictures of them going through the lock onto the river, then we headed to Riverside Drive and sat by the river and waited for them to come past, then went and met them at the marina. Was such a nice day for it.

Anyways got chance to get a couple of cards done today, so here is the first one (the second is my design team card for this week so you'll have to wait for Friday for that one lol) but it means that I've got a couple of the birthday cards for the next few weeks done (still a couple to get done - hopefully will have some time over the next few long weekends). Anyways this card is for my Mum's cousin who is going to be 40 in a few weeks lol. Kerry of Ladybug Crafts Ink had made a card using the numbers sitting on Magnum's hand and it gave me the idea of using them as balloons - I stamped the string and knot of the balloon stamp and then added the numbers and a few fineliner lines. His other hand looked a bit empty so I added the cake - after all what's a birthday without cake lol :)

Cheeky Monkey

No don't worry I haven't disappeared - really don't know where the time is going have lists and lists of things to get done and of course spend more time making the lists than actually getting things done off them lol. On the plus side I'm finally feeling almost back to normal :)

We went to see James Blunt in Manchester last night, was really really good, loved the stage with all the light screens too. But I have to say I didn't like the shakey floor when everyone was stood up (we were on the upstairs bit) - really didn't like it - yes from the person that goes on all the rollar coasters and has done a sky dive lol. Knackered today though, really looking forward to a lazy weekend :)

Anyways just a little card today cos I've been busy making alot of mess for this week's Alphabet Challenge Design Team Project - but you'll have to wait till tomorrow to see that.

Alphabet Challenge Blog DT - O for Orange

Yep it's Friday again and that means that it's time for the new challenge at Alphabet Challenge Blog - this week is O for Orange (as the main colour of your card).

I loved this challenge, I knew straight away which paper I was going to use and which stamp which always makes things come together quicker :) I was looking for some ribbon when I came across this reversible one that I'd bought ages ago so I had to add in a bit of pink.

Alphabet Challenge Blog DT - N for Numbers

I really don't know where this week has gone, I can't remember the last time that I went a whole week without a post. Well hopefully football will finally come in useful and give me some time to get some cards finished.

But now onto this week's Alphabet Challenge Blog Challenge - N for Numbers - What a perfect challenge, I was torn whether to do a kids' card or an 18th/21st card, as it was I needed to make a 21st card so that decided that lol. I decided that I wanted to keep the card quite simple with no patterned paper instead I stamped the '21' all over the base of the card using grey ink and then cooloured in pastel ink and then covered in glitter. I stamped the image and sentiment on one piece of card to help avoid clutter, and rather than mounting on card or paper I used a pink ink pad to edge the card. I added some more glitter to Nikki's party gress (I so want that dress lol) and added the ribbon and a big bow for added girly-ness

And trying to show off the glitter, all of the numbers were coloured and glittered.

Supplies: 'Winestool Nikki' and Sentiment and Numbers Stamps by Ladybug Crafts Ink, Ribbon by Anna Griffin (yes Pami I got them too lol), Sugar-Coating by Doodlebug
Extras: Grey Ink Pad, White Card, Pink Ink Pad, Copics, Promarkers

Well that's it for me for today, but there's football on the telly this weekend so that'll give me a couple of hours on Saturday and Sunday to get some cards done so I'll actually have something to post next week lol - hope you enjoyed your break from me lol XOX

Come over all girly

Not really done much this weekend, went down to Ian's on Friday so he could go and sort his friend's computer - but yay they have 2 pugs so I got to play with them while he was busy - awwww they're so cute I want one lol. We were meant to go for a meal last night but neither of us were feeling great still so we decided to postpone till next week. So been a bit of a lazy weekend but it was much needed. Though means I've fallen a bit behind with my cards, so going to playing catch up as much as I can this week.

Anyways onto today's this is a 21st card for my cousin's girlfriend, very girly card for me lol and yay lots and lots of pink. I also got to use some of the flowers that were in the candy that I won from Debby woop - not used this style flower before but I really like them - did have to invest in some expanding envelopes lol.

I can't believe how quick this week has gone, and wow it's time for my second design team card.

This week the theme at Alphabet Challenge Blog is L for Ladies, I knew straight away I would have to use my Shopping Nikki Stamp and some girly girl colours, I also managed to get some ribbon in there and got to have another go with my new rolled flower die. Definitely been one of my favourite new buys.

As well as glitter and glossy accents for the shopping bags - if only they were like that in real-life (although having said that maybe glittery bags wouldn't be that practical if it was anything like the glittery paper that Ian wrapped my Christmas presents in - everything is still covered in glitter (and for once I'm not responsible lol)

The stamp was in the Candy that I won on Debby's blog woop woop so made up still, how perfect is it as it arrived the day I was planning my mum's cards lol. Lots of new things on this card as the circle was cut with my first set of Nesties :) and the flowers were made using my new rolled flowers die. I really don't know how I lasted this long without a die-cutting machine it just makes life so much easier, still working at getting the placement right but still made up with the results. I can't wait to get some more nesties.
