I have a winner!!!.....................

Lately I forever seem to be apologising for my lack of regular posting, I'd like to say I'm just being lazy.....(huh I should be so lucky!!!), but alas its been quite the contrary and I have had deadlines and a whole load of awkward situations thrown my way, that crafting has not been on top of my to-do list :-( unfortunately!!!

But, I'm here now and I know that you are wanting to know who the winner of June's blog candy is, so I have now drawn a winner ........................................

Jodi of My Creative Expressions

Congratulations to Jodi, if you could email me (email on my sidebar) then I will get your candy out to you asap.

As per norm, because I think it really important....I would just like to thank everybody that participated and to everyone that takes the time to visit my blog, become followers and for all your wonderful comments.....as I've said before, without YOU it would mean nothing!!!

Once again, I am now in the process of putting together July's blog candy and will be announcing it this Friday the 31st, so dont forget to check back......lol xx

Anyone for Coffee!!

Well I say that, but in fact, I dont actually like coffee!!!....but I did love this stamp set from Particraft when it came out last month......and had you hosted a party you could have got the A4 stamp set worth £20 absolutely free.........don't you wish you'd hosted a party now!!!

Well, not to worry this stamp set will be available to buy soon, so you haven't entirely missed out!!

I have used cosmic shimmer watercolours to colour the image the background papers are from Sweet Shoppe Designs as is the element image which I used to center in my bottle cap, which has been crushed with the wizard.

Just for your info, you can see the new June stamp plate worth £20 that the hostess will receive free here!!

A 'Twilight' treat.......

You may think I have officially gone mad with my Twilight obssession, but I assure you I'm only a 'little' obssessed!!!!!

Anyway, I just did this for fun!!.......

The photo is from the cover of the film 'Twilight', which I downloaded and printed, the papers are also a digi download from Sweet Shoppe designs, which i think were just so approriate for this and the edges of the papers have been dabbed with a 'Hot Cinnamon' radiant paint dabber to give that 'bloody' look to it, I even had a friend email me the Twilight font!!!

Birthday Girl Cards!

On Monday, was my daughters 10th birthday....where does the time go???

Anyway, I just thought I would share with you the two cards that we made for her, one from her brothers and the other from Mum & dad.

As much as I hate to admit this....usually I dont make cards to give (aagghhhh!!! shock horror!!) its true.....I make cards yes, BUT usually only for demo purposes, I do try to make cards, especially for close firends and family, but usually time is the issue....anyway, I did manage to get time for these, in fact I made sure I had time, of course only thing now is that I have my niece's 18th, my husbands, my oldest son, my dad, my sis-in-law, my best friend all with birthdays coming up.......aaggghhhhh!!! H E L P!!

I made this card using a stamp that I have had for years (literally!) and just never used (I have a few like that!!) 'Collecting seashell' by Stamps Happen. The papers are digi download from Raspeberry Road Designs. Ive colured her using distress inks and embossed and glittered the 10, but you can't really see that in the pic.

This image is a digi download from Cute Daisy May designs and the papers are also a digi download from Sweet Shoppe Designs. Ive colured her using watercolour pencils.

June Blog Candy!!

Sorry guys, I was meant to post this yesterday but for some reason was having problems getting the picture to upload......Anyway, seems to be working now so here is June's blog candy for you.

It's a Toodles & Binks theme - there are 4 Toodles and Binks stamps and some ribbon.

These are the four stamp images and you can see some of the projects here, here, and here !!

All you need to do for your chance to win is leave me a comment in this post by Friday 26th June11pm (GMT) link me to your blog mentioning my blog candy - only if you want (but if you do it gets you double entry in the draw!) and that's it.I will announce the winner here on my blog on the Monday/Tuesday following. Good Luck!

Happy Crafting!!

And the winner is................

The draw is done and I now have a winner to announce for my Blogaversary candy!..........the response has been amazing and hence the reason that it has taken me a little longer to print, cut and draw the winner and that includes all those that emailed me with the entry as they do not have blogs.....all were entered and nearly all twice!!!

But alas there can only be one winner so without further ado the winner is .......

Messy Rabbit Bookmark!

Here is my last project (for now) using the messy rabbits. Its just a simple bookmark which I have made using grungeboard - coloured with radiant dabbers and acrylic dabbers. I run the grungeboard through the sizzix using a cricut embossing folding and the papers are a mish mash from my stash - flower emelishment, sentiment from childrens poems on pc.

Messy rabbit has been coloured with copics and cut out.

Dont forget to stop by tomorrow as I will be announcing the winner of my blogaversary candy!!

Big Thank You!! And a couple more of the "wabbits".....

Now that I am back from being away a few days 'again' (it was half-term AND my birthday!!) I have a couple more projects to share with you but first I wanted to say a BIG THANK YOU to everyone that sent me well wishes and cards and pressies for my birthday........I know this may sound soppy and cliche, but I am trully moved that people that I have never met before sent me cards and well wishes...you are all fabulous and I thank you from the bottom of my heart!!!!

Here are those messy rabbits projects......

The background papers are from Nitwits. And tomorrow I will post my last messy rabbit for the time being!!

Just to let you all know also, that I am in the process of doing the draw for my blogaversary candy. There were so many responses including some email ones that it is going to take a little longer....but I will announce the winner on Wednesday!...So keep everything crossed until then!!!!
