Flowers

Hi all

Just a quick post will make a card and show you that later today but for now here are the flowers I made using my heartfelt stamps and die set.  I like the paler flowers rather than the deep coloured ones but as I make more I suppose these will get better and better hopefully

Anyway without further ado here are the flowers, the two end flowers were coloured in using the Crafters Companion Sparkle pens and the middle two were coloured with the Spectrum Noir Aqua Pencils which I love.

I will pop by later today, as I need to get Bella out and before I do that I need to sort myself out which is going to take a long time today as I have serious backache and all my arthritic spurs on my fingers are swollen.  I hate having arthritis especially in my back as it hinders what I can do.

Anyway enough moaning and groaning (yes am making old lady noises) will catch up with you all soon.

Love Alison

Sincerely Yours

Hi all

Well for the first time ever there is a Sincerely Yours Craft Show on in Plymstock, Plymouth and so to support them thought I would pop along and see what I could buy, Alan came with me but it took ages as I forgot that the A38 which is the main route in and out of Plymouth from where we live was closed due to the old bridge being blown up at Plympton.  so we left around 10.00 got there at 11.15 (the journey usually takes us around 25 mins.  I spent a fortune (or rather Alan did) around £91.00 all together lol.  We then began the journey home at 11.45 and have just got home 13.06 the traffic was really bad.

My goodies

Not much really for nearly £100.00

Will be having a go at making the flowers this afternoon hopefully will show you what I make tomorrow.

Love Alison x

Evening All

I have arrived safely from my sister's who lives in Bath just relaxed did a bit of catching up with you all and have made a commissioned card, for one of my customers who wants to give this to a friend of hers who lives in the North somewhere and loves fairies.

I used a digi image from Sherri Baldy the dies down the side are from Poppy Stamps the middle die can't remember where I got that from but think it is a spellbinders.  The bow and the hexagon embossing folder is from Crafter's companion.  I coloured her in using my Aqua Pencils also from Crafters Companion.

I am entering this card into Sketch Saturday Challenge.

Am off to cook some dinner we are having home made bacon & egg flan and salad tonight and I also have to make a flan for our youngest daughter Sarah but it has to be mushroom as she is a vegetarian as I  have tons of eggs to use up the chickens have been going mad lol x

Morning Everybody

How is everybody this morning, well I hope, if not a big crafty hug from me.

I have been busy making a couple of box cards, I do love making these, the instructions are in my tutorial page if you need it. 

For my first card I used the Bebunni Baby CD which is adorable from Crafters Companion and also adorable scorable card stock as it does not rip, in the little drawer there is a pair of mittens and socks so cute. 

My second box card is for a boy

and a further two box cards

This is a little gift set so card and box and a gift bag

I am off now to check your lovely blogs and then get ready to go to my friend Dorne's this afternoon as we are doing another block on our quilt today.

Late posting

Hi All

I am posting this later than usual today but have been a bit busy.  The card I am showcasing today is from Art Impressions Girl Friends range Laughing Set 4385, I stamped this up over at Rachel's on Saturday but only got around to colouring it in today, I used my Crafter's Companion AquaBlend Pencils  by Spectrum Noir.  I love these pencils they are brilliant.

The paper I have used are bits and bobs left over from other cards and are mostly printed from Crafter's Companion CD's which I have loads as they have been bought either as Christmas Presents or Birthday Presents. 

Well that's it from me tonight am off to spend time with the hubby.

Love to All
