Evening everyone! Hope everyone has had a good weekend! It's all go here...my niece went back home yesterday after staying for a week and now my mother in law is here visiting! I'm sorry to have not been able to catch up with everyone yet...this week I'll be able to catch up and visit you all! Tonight I managed to finish a card I started on Friday evening using my new magnolia summer kit stamps...I love the fruits in these! I've also combined a few challenges (I am officially addicted to combining challenges!) which are Whimsy Stamps Challenge which was a fabby sketch(I hope I'm not too late...), Cute Card Thursday which is called Get Fruity, Three Clovers which is called tooty fruity and Just Magnolia which is distressing!

Stuff: Magnolia stamp coloured with copics, distress inks in broken china and shabby shutters, papers by magenta and hotp, prima flowers, buttons and raffia from stash, core'dinations card (blimey I get through this stuff), sentiment by magnolia

I think the sugarbabes are all coming home now after having a fantastic time it seems and I reckon they're coming home loaded with goodies too:) Ooo also if you've been waiting to get your hands on the new Manga kids from Sugarnellie they are now back in stock...hurry though they keep flying out! Night all...

Midnight Madness

Evening lovely bloggers. I've just recently found this new challenge blog, but I think I'm really going to love it, there is defo something different about it so I shall keep playing along. So this card is for the new blog Midnight Madness. The sketch supplied was fab, shall use again for sure and I decided I'd use one of my newer Tilda's-I love this one, I popped some glossy accents on areas of her hair and some roses too! I've also used some bits and bobs that have been hanging around in my off cut box which are from the Cloud9 kit I won-I love these papers so much, but there doesn't seem to be many places that do thus brand in packs of 12 x 12. Ah well I shall keep looking..

Materials: Magnolia Tilda stamp coloured with promarkers (spice, apricot, blue pearl, cornflower, marsh green, moss, ruby, poppy, cinnamon, cocoa, vanilla and blush), Cloud9 papers-Hannah's Story, Ranger Glossy Accents, Core-dinations cardstock, BoBunny ribbon, bling from stash, The Artistic Stamper sentiment.

Am off to catch up on the Apprentice! See ya tomorrows. Thanks for popping by and many comments you might leave.

C.R.A.F.T Challenge

Another new challenge blog started this week, the more the merrier I reckon, especially as they're all abit different aren't they?! The new challenge blog called C.R.A.F.T challenge wanted us to make a card for something 'new' so I've done a new baby card. There are a number of my family and friends who are preggers atm so this will come in handy soon, unless everyone has boys hehe. 

Materials: Magnolia Tilda stamp, Promarkers (pastel yellow, cinnamon, sandstone, lilac, amethyst, blossom, rose pink, pastel green and saffron), Blonde moments Sugar Dumpling paper, HOTP papers, nesties (circle, scalloped circle), Bazill bling cardstock, Prima flowers, brads and bling from stash, BoBunny ribbon, rub on sentiment from stash and paper lace also from stash.

Hope everyone has had a lovely day, am popping off now to catch up on Desperate Housewives and chill.

Truly Scrumptious Challenge

Todays card is for the Truly Scrumptious challenge-I only just realised that last week I forgot to do the theme and had just done the sketch-what a wally! This time I have definetly done both-which was a sketch with the extra theme of 'good enough to eat'. I just had to get the Magnolia Love Muffin out again for this-it's such a lush image! I used ccsr big one, bazill swiss dots cardstock, dcwv teen stack, k and co metal charm and hot pink celebration ribbon. I was going to post my Just Magnolia card but to be honest am not keen on it, I really struggled with the pink and green theme (am not feeling the greens atm lol) so I think it's gonna get pulled apart and recycled instead. Am feeling a bit tired tonight so I am off for an earlyish night (early for me anyways). See yas tomorrow.

Cute Card Thursday meets Colour Create

Here is my card for cute card thursday which had the yummy theme of chocolate and marshmallows (drooling here). When I look at this card it makes me want some, am really pleased with how it turned out in the end, took a while actually as I originally had a different backing paper and just couldn't co ordinate it, when I eventually gave up with it and chose this one it was done in about half an hour. I'm also entering this for Colour Create as I think it fits in with their colour scheme really nicely of chocolate, coffee and cream. For the card I used Magnolia stamp love muffin, daisy and dandelion backing paper, promarkers, hero arts stamp and papermania brads. Hope you like it! Well I'm off to the Post Office in a moment to send some bits and bobs. Hope everyone has a wonderful day!

If you're stopping by please do take a moment to say hi and comment, it really is appreciated and I can come visit you too!
