Hello There!

Morning... I'm off today as last night I went to watch Kacey Musgraves in Manchester and then tonight it's Jesus Christ Superstar so I thought I would do a little impromptu crafting.... I've been so busy lately that it's nice to be able to "Just Make A Card" rather than for DT commitments or customer commissions..
Last month I did a pretty large Simon Says Stamp order so I thought I better use some of the fabulous STAMPtember goodies...


Inspiration:
CAS(e) This Sketch: #49


Card Recipe:
Sentiment: Sketchy Banner Greetings & Die form Simon Says Stamp
Planes: Small Planes from Simon Says Stamp
Card Stock: Soft Sky, Smoky Slate, Real Red, Whisper White from Stampin Up
Embossing Folder: Stampin Up Cloudy Day EF

I have a busy weekend ahead with two days at Sincerely Yours in Leigh helping out Kay on the Hougie Stand...

Be back tomorrow with a new OLC challenge at Less Is More... I know it's your favourite!!

This little cutie is release on 4th November along with 4 others and is called "My Favourite Friends"


I've coloured her in with Stampin Write Markers and then mounted it on Riding Hood Red DP from SU.  The sentiment is one of my favourites from Everyday Sentiment Tags and then Twine from the one and only Ribbon Girl! A button finishes it off!!

I'll see you tomorrow....

Moustache-tic Birthday

Morning.. Little bit later that normal today as internet was just not playing ball..  A few months ago I bought this cute little moustache die and thought I must get around to using it as the male cards in my box are depleting rapidly.

Such A Nice Way to Start People!

Morning.... I've been in Doncaster all weekend so not managed to do any crafting .. although I did manage some craft shopping and picked up a couple of bits from Which Craft? :-)
I have a card which I made earlier in the year but completely forgot to show you.... It uses the fabulous sentiments from Lili Of The Valley!!

I'm hoping to get some crafting done tonight so I have something to show you the rest of the week!!

Here is this super cute little giraffe from the Baby companion set!
