LUCY'S CUPCAKE CARD

Happy Snowy Monday !!!

Just a quick post tonight !! Still snowing here in Paisley and freeeeeeeeezing !!! I know it is the same many places.  Please all stay warm and safe !!

Lucy and I did not go sledging today, we decided to bake instead.  We made some shortbread biscuits.  Lucy then decided she wanted to learn to knit (ahhhhhhh).  Lucy then decided she wanted to make a card.  Last week I had purchased from My Favourite Things they template for a cupcake card.  This is what Lucy came up with and I promised her I would put it on my blog.

Lucy also had a go at distressing.  We could not find our ribbler to make the bottom part of the card so she distressed it instead.  I think she did a great job.  Oh and the back of the card is the same as the front.

Thanks for taking the time to look.  I appreciate all comments left and I know Lucy would too LOL !!! OK off to watch CELEB !!!

SOMETIMES ITS FUN - SOMETIMES IT SNOWWWWWWWW FUN

Happy Snowy Sunday to you !!!

I don't have a card but I thought I would share some photos of the snow that we took this afternoon.  Lucy (my daughter) was on a sleepover last night we had to drive through the snow to collect her at lunch-time today and this is how we spent part of the afternoon in between snow showers.

This Tommy (hubby) and Lucy sharing a hug in the snow !!!

 Lucy and I having a break from building Mr Snowman !!
 Taken before we ventured out into the garden
 The poor birds cannot even get to my bird feeder !!
 Before Mr Snowman was built - another shower of snow !!
Hubby has to go to work tomorrow but I have 2 days holiday and the schools are on holiday for 2 days also YIPEE hope to go to the park tomorrow sledging (I'm just a 45 year kid at heart) LOL !!!

HUGS TO EVERYONE !!!! stay warm and safe

A CUSTOM CARD

Happy Friday Everyone !!!

I cannot tell you how cold it has gotten here in Paisley, Scotland brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr !!! FREEZING!! We are supposed to get snow at some point tonight or tomorrow but I am not so sure !! Weather people never to seem to get it right !!

Anyhoo onto my card !! My Mum had asked me to make a card for her for a friend of her.  I don't really do custom cards anymore but I could not say no to my Mum.  I hope she likes this card as I will be delivering it to her tonight LOL just had time to take a few photos. I made another easel card (my second one WOO HOOO).  I am sure the stamp I used is an older Sugar Nellie one designed by Elizabeth Bell. The flowers are Wild Orchid. I think the papers are Papermania.


Whatever you do this weekend stay safe and warm !!!! Thank you for taking the time to look and any comments left I so enjoy reading them and truly appreciate you taking the time to do so.

KENNY K - ROCK DUDE

Hi Everyone !!!

One more day and its the weekend YIPEE !!!  Some of you will know that I have always ALWAYS wanted to make an easel card and for some reason I could not bring myself to do it as I thought I would make a mess or to be honest the thought just made me so nervous and I don't know why !!

One of my BBF had asked me to make a birthday card for her husband who is totally into heavy rock music.  My friend is not a crafter and I told her to look on Kenny K's website and she intantly chose ROCK DUDE !! I decided to attempt my first easel card using this image and I have also entered it in the Kenny K Challenge Blog this week for anything goes. So I would like to share my card with you !!!



I have to say I was pleased the way it turned out and I gave it to Lesley today and she was so happy and says her hubby will love it !!! PHEW !!!

Thank you so much for looking and I love reading any comments left !!!!
