Ready Teddy Go - challenge 10 - Bingo

I have chosen tag, buttons, gems from down the centre line.

The base cardstock is from Craftwork Cards as is the tag sentiment.

Cloud paper is from Little Claire

Everything else on the card has been lurking in my craft room for years.

Hope you are all enjoying the fabulous weather, if it is the same tomorrow I may just throw caution to the wind and wash a few curtains.

Thank you all for looking.

Ladybug Crafts and Ink challenge 60 - Anything but square

A very difficult card to photograph but I hope you will get the idea. Images are from the baby collection from LCI. The card and papers are from Craft Creations which I have had for quite some years. I have just remembered that I was going to put some buttons on the card but in my rush to get the entry in (being very last minute) I forgot till looking at the card now.
This is the inside of the card.

I have left room to add the baby's name and congratulations as the wee little fellow has not yet made his appearance and name not confirmed. I am late with this entry as it was not my original one, I was using the Wheelbarrow as a circle card but finished the card and was about to take a pic and realised that I had put in on a square card, doh!

Thank you all for looking and any comments you are kind enough to make.

Worst photo ever

Pixies crafty snippets challenge week 19

Well, I was going to post this card earlier but didn't like the photo but this is even worse, so I have just lost the plot. The number of times I have wanted to throw my computer through the window BUT my camera is now living on borrowed time and if it wasn't for the fact that my Hubby bought it for me, and I may have told you this before , he got a parking fine doing so, it was £60 dearer than it should have been.

Penny Black stickeroo's - in the playgound.

SU papers- snippets left from Grandson's birthday card 2 years ago.

Thank you all for looking and to be quite honest, I don't expect any comments, where has the blue sky gone? I did omit the dog as it seemed to upset some of the playmates earlier.

But hope you all enjoy the seesaw.

MAWTT - Nautical

Moving Along with the Times - challenge 148 - Nautical

Quite an apt challenge for me as just before I went away I made this card for a neighbour who wanted something sea related.
The images are Little Claire stamps and all the card stock is Craftwork Cards.
Sentiment is computer generated. Nestabilities.
Was quite unsure about it myself but apparently Jack loved it.
Enjoy what's left of the weekend and thank you all for looking.

Snippets

Pixies Crafty Snippets challenge 19

Well, something is going on round here that I seem to have lost complete control of, it looks like my camera has a mind of it's own.

My favorite ever PB stamp - Chearful, well that is how it is spelt on the stamp , and I have to say that is not how I have felt after making this card, I lost my stamped images, I lost my sissors, and various other items and my work desk was the tidiest it has been for ages.

I decided that it was time I used up my SU aged papers and all the snippets I had so this card is made mostly from SU papers and please don't ask me what the collection is called, as I have no idea. But I was still in the yellow mould from the LIM challenge and thought these went really well but the photo is rubbish, not really showing the real colour.

Hopefully back tomorrow with another snippets challenge.

Thanks for looking Kath x

It's all yellow

at LIM this week for challenge 66 - colour challenge - yellow

A very simple little card - SU stamp for the stem, stamped using Memento Pear Tart

Yellow button to which I have added a yellowy/orange pearl.

Yellow card from my snippets.

Card two is using Hero Arts - Garden Bouquet cling stamp that I have had for ages.

Stamped with Memento Dandelion, circle nesties and yellow card from snippets. Left out any sentiment as not sure what I will use them for, if anything, but had to do something easy to get back in the swing.

Beautiful morning heretoday but raining now.

Thank you all for looking.

I've been sailing but I am home again.

To all my lovely followers, I have to say that I am very sorry that I have not been around to comment on your fabulous creations for the past 3 weeks. I hope that you didn't think that I had deserted you but I have been on holiday and my Husband does not like me to broadcast the fact that we will be away and the house will be empty, in a way I can agree with him on this, as I would hate to come home and find that everything in my craft room has disappeared.

I was thinking of offering some blog candy to any of my followers that volunteered to do my ironing, but if anyone out there really loves ironing then I am certain I can sort something out.

I am absolutely shattered, I need a holiday, I am full of cold and we have been to the West Indies ( can't spell Caribbean) and all I needed was to come back to a change in blogger. We put the clocks back 5 times going out... great... but we put them forward 5 times coming back. I have posted a few pictures for you.


The Aurora berthed in St Lucia

Hubby looking pregnant in St Maartins, and 6 cruise liners berthed at the same time, our ship is hidden by the black one.

Me doing the crossword in the cabin, yet another bad hair day, and another reason to lose a few followers when you actually see what I look like.

Hubby half ready for his first DJ evening


We met some really nice people and there was actually a Craft class on board but it clashed with the music quiz and it was Perigarma (not sure of spelling) so that was not me.

Hope to get back into the swing very soon and again so sorry for not commenting on your blogs.

It was our first holiday for 3 years and things have changed and my poor Hubby did have a lot of headaches, And just for a example I have eaten.. 22 poached eggs, 44 slices of bacon, 22 portions of fried bread (my holiday treat) and well over 44 slices of toast, 22 glasses of orange juice.

Don't want to sound a bit soppy but I have missed you.

Have a great Bank Holiday.
