To Love

Hi Everyone, I been having a play with my Maggies, may just be because I just got 2 new Magnolia Magazines, Chocolate Dreams and Sweet Christmas Dreams!!!!.
Tilda holding Egg Basket is this lil Maggies name and she came from Bizzy Becs Online Store,  if you cant find her I'm sure Bec can help you out.
 She did have eggs in her basket but I put in some little hearts instead, they come as pearl white hearts and I  coloured  them with copics. The little pearl hearts are also available from Bizzy Becs.
I also had a bit of a play with some grass for the grounding, lots of copic markers used here along with a White gel pen..

Sweets for my Sweet



Isn't this girl from Bizzy Becs Blue Butterfly Birthday Digi Collection  HERE  just so retro looking  that I  just had to have her standing in a kitchen looking so pleased as punch with her baking! 
I have used Cupcake Anyone along with Kaiser papers and Magnolia kitchen stamp. I cut out the mix master, scales and plates from the paper and placed them onto the  recipe background paper to create my tag. The quote is also from the paper pad but I added a red heart to it.The dots on her dress are from a white gel pen.
There is some fabulous digi images in store and most of them are only $2.00 each ... so head on over HERE  and pick yourself up some while they are sooo cheap.

Play


Its challenge time for Group B over at The Emerald Faerie Challenge Blog and we would love to see your creations using  "Flowers,Flowers, Flowers" on your creation.
I have used the gorgeous little faeire EBONY" without her mushroom and placed her in/on the birdcage along with leaf  and butterfly punch, lace and a leafy swirl flourish along with the crochet flower handmade from lovely Sally.
 I actually don't have or use a lot of flowers on my cards, they just never seem to look right when I use them, I look at others cards and think WOW when I see all the flowers they use and how fabulous their cards look .... so I took myself off to my local Scap shop that also happens to be closing this week to get some., Lucky for me everything in the shop was 30% off so I stocked up on "lots" of readymade flowers along with some flower punches in case I ever need to use lots of  flowers again.!!!!

Beauty of the Soul

Girls and Pearls is the new monthly challenge over at Bizzy Becs Challenge Blog and I have used one of my favourite girly image " all that" from Kenny K and is available HERE at Bizzy Becs Online Store.
I went for a little different look this time and printed her out on paper with text and just coloured her skin plus I did add some white gel pen on her shoes, belt and hat.
The background paper is torn strips from a scrap piece of  computer paper under something else I was working on when spraying Red Pepper Colour Wash - made for a fabulous BG paper as its quite splotchy in places.
I then added lots of sewing and some left over other scraps strips of paper plus do you see those gorgeous little PEARL HEARTS in the top corner, they are also from Bizzy Becs.
The hearts were hand drawn by yours truly and  sprayed with colour wash.
The quote was computer generated and then I ran a black fine pen roughly around the edge.
My other lovely Dt gals have some fab inspiration for you and as always Bec will be offering  a wonderful prize.

Goodbye Madde


Hi Friends, no card today but I just wanted to share this picture of my beautiful wonderful dog
" MADDE"
 of just under 14 years who died  this morning , very unexpected and I was just not ready, but her poor old heart gave out on her.
When we get these dogs they become such a part of your family that their leaving has so much impact.
 She was the most loyal, friendliest, lovable, remarkable dog who always sat under my feet when I was crafting/creating that it will seem strange her not being there.
 Miss you Madde girl, crafting will not be the same without you.

Who's been.....


Hi Everyone, sometimes its nice just to have a creative play and that's what I did with this.
I found these digi images called "Dilly Beans Images" and I love em!!! in fact recently I have found a few digi image sites with some real quirky images that I have just had to have..... must be that other strange side coming out in me!!!
 As you have read a few times lately I have decided to get back to making my own papers and generally just getting  a little messy and dirty with inks, paints and other mediums as I want to have a try at creating an "art journal" as well as being able to add lots of interesting textures to my cards.
These Alice in wonderland images were great to colour and I added a few extra elements as in tree and leaves stamped and inked onto book pages, taking B/W paper and changing the colour and adding other stamps, plus I even  did some doodling around the edge just  for some fun.
