Wedding Card

Afternoon all, yet again!
3 posts in one day, what is this world coming too...lol

Ok, here is a piccie of the card I managed to make for the wedding I am off to tomorrow.



The picture was kindly sent to me from Caz, Foxcraft which i mounted twice nto reddie/burgady card and once onto silvery paper.

I printed out Mr & Mrs onto the reddie card again and cut out using my oval nesties and covered in glossy accents. I added 4 little love heart gems to the card to add a bit of bling, and also a piece of ribbon across the bottom which matches the ribbon i used on the box.

Thanks for looking.

Roadside sign - spelling mistake!

Morning all,

Whilst I was on my way to Romford yesterday I got stuck in traffic. Whilst nosing out of the car window, as you do, i was reading the different road signs. When i see this one I know i had to take a picture to put it on my blog, maybe i should submit it to failblog??



Can you spot the mistake?

Thanks for looking.

Daily Doggie pictures for Val - Wheres Scrappy?

Morning all,

Yesterday mum tells me she has got a couple of good piccies of our second youngest shih tzu, scrappy. She said she found the other 3 chilling out in the kitchen but scrappy was no where to be seen. That is until she entered the bathroom:-



Scrappy is mad about baths, she said that when she walked in scrappy looked at mum then at the taps and back at mum again. As if to say, come on woman turn the water on...lol
We cant even have a shower without him thinking its an invitation for him to get in.

She then got this piccie as he was preparing to jump out.



Hope you like the piccies today Val

Thanks for looking.

Another attempt at pro-markers

Afternoon all,

Over the weekend i managed to get quite a bit of crafting done. I had to make a card for a wallet swap over on docrafts.
I had this image that was kindly sent to me by the lovely Sall and decided to colour it using my pro-markers. I am sort of happy with it, but i think that i am better with pencils and sansador.




Sorry the close up piccie is poo, I am still in need of some serious help re photo taking i think.
Anyone know of any websites that do online tutorials?

Thanks for looking.

Duck update

Afternoon again...lol
Our ducks are the fussiest ducks in the world i think, basically they wont go in the pool if the water is dirty. We have been managing with a small 3 ring kiddies pool for a while now but thought maybe a bigger pool would be better for them now, to try and swim. I managed to get a video of them in there.

I also took some piccies:


Thanks for looking.

Wedding Accordian book in a box

Afternon all,

Well i have been very busy crafting this weekend, and trust me I have loved every second of it. Just need to keep the ideas coming and who knows i may even get some more done. First though I thought I better update my blog being that I have been such a bad blogger.

Here are the piccies of the box:








The plan is that i will go to the wedding on saturday, take piccies of the wedding, pick the best 6 and go to the shop and have the best 6 printed small, stick them in the album then give it to them as a gift at the evening receiption. Mmm, lets just hope i remember my camera. Feel free to leave me messages friday to remind me...lol

Tattoo Cover up

Afternoon all,

Been a naughty blogger again i know. Its just I havent had anytime for crafting recently so its not good. Hopefully I canmake some me time tonight and over the weekend, we will see. :)

Ok, I had this tattoo done 12 years ago, and for some strange reason it has distorted, you cant really make out what thetattoo is of or what it says. It is like it is a blur.



So i booked an appointment to go to Chameleons and have Adam do a cover up for me.
This is how it came out:



I am over the moon with the tattoo, I love the colouring and the fact you would never know there was a rose there originally.

So thank you Adam.

Thanks for looking.

Star Book

Morning all,

here are the piccies of the star book i made in the final class at sugar and spice.
I have made a few of these before so i had the idea already. I was a bit dubious about folding the piccies to go in the middle, but i can honestly say i love the outcome.

I would like to thank Nina for showing us how to make all these books, and for running the class for us.

I would also like to wish Janet a fab holiday back home in Aus.











Thanks for looking.
