Happy Tuesday!

I am sooooo confused! I had yesterday off work...yes I spent a lovely afternoon with Joe...no I'm not a Valentine's Day fanatic...we just decided to spend some time together because Joe's working so much at the moment....the bad bit is that it's really confused me!! I don't know what day it is!! Joe bought me a lovely mixing bowl for Valentine's Day....ha, ha...I never thought I'd utter those words! The mixing bowl is lovely though and I'm looking forward to baking some yummy cakes!

I haven't really been entering many card challenges online recently....not sure why...I thought it was because I was busy doing other things...and I have done a lot recently...but I've also had lots of time when I just didn't fancy making any cards! I suppose everyone needs a break every now and then! Well, this evening I've decided to enter a lot of challenges, so this may be a long post....I'm sorry!! First off I have a card for two different challenges....

Since I haven't been entering many challenges I was really surprised and delighted to see that I have won last week's challenge over at Stamp Fairy....thank you ladies! I have a lovely new badge on my blog and I get to choose a digi image from their shop! Fab! Their challenge this week is "basically white with a touch of colour"....and surprisingly I didn't go for pink! I love this little bug...he's a Stamp Fairy image and I think he is actually a space man...but I think he looks great as a cold or flu bug! The card also fits in nicely with the "its all about the sentiment" challenge over at Allsorts this week. It'd make me smile if I was ill!

My second card fits in with more challenges....it may look like a Valentine's card...but really it can suit lots of occasions!

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

Cupcake Craft Challenge - I heart you - a card with at least one heart on it

Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge - stamped flower

Paper Play Challenge - hearts and flowers, but not Valentines

Cute Card Thursday - hearts and flowers

I've had fun making these cards this evening, thanks for stopping by to see them!

It's Wednesday again...Brownies, Guides and time for a sketch!

I really do enjoy Wednesdays...they go by in a bit of a blur, but they're always fun!

We've got 6 new Brownies at the moment and I introduced them to the world of Brownies this evening... I taught them about good turns and our promise, we practised our salute and I told them the Brownie story without them getting too bored! After that I taught the Guides how to make royal icing roses and we decorated biscuits. I also love Wednesdays because I get to play with a new sketch from Sweet Sketch Wednesday!

I've managed to leave all my favourite stash at Joe's this week, so I've made this card using papers and cards that are at home. I rummaged through my papers and found papers I'd forgotten about! The sketch is fab, take a peek at the SSW blog to see how the DT used it.

I'd also like to enter this in the Stamp Fairy Challenge this week where the theme is lace and hearts with no red or pink. The cute house image that I've used is a Stamp Fairy image, I found it on their freebie page....isn't it just fab? I'll be popping back to buy some images later! I've gone with a piece of burgandy lace and some green hearts! I'd also like to enter this in the Papertake Challenge this week, their theme is "Have a Heart!".

Do you remember I mentioned that I saw a ballet last week with Becca and Sheree...to be honest we all felt a little unsophisticated as we had to Google the story of the ballet during the interval to figure out what was going on! I've since heard from quite a few people who've done this mid performance....so I'm not feeling so bad now! I did enjoy the performance, I just wasn't very good at seeing the story!

Hee, hee...bet that made you giggle!

Thanks for popping by today, I'll see you again soon.

Knickers in a twist!

Morning All,

Well...it doesn't seem that long since I posted last and I'm really not sure that I've actually slept last night! All I can say is roll on bedtime!!

The card I have for you this morning is one of the reasons I went to bed so late last night and is for two different challenges....the Cupcake Challenge this week is "seeing red"...they want to see us feature some red on our cards. The challenge over at Cute Card Thursday is "banish the blues" and they want to see something humourous on our cards. Hopefully this card fits the bill....

So, my something red is this fab pair of red pants! And my humourous bit is the sentiment which is based on a quote. I think this is a fab Birthday card! I love funny sentiments or sayings on cards and I think this is the best that I've found on the internet so far! I hope it made you smile!

I had a wonderful surprise when I popped by the Cupcake Challenge blog yesterday, I've won a prize! I'm really looking forward to my Polkadoddles CD arriving, it looks brilliant - thank you everyone!

As usual, work is calling so I better get my skates on! See you soon!

Thanks for stopping by my blog today,

Busy, busy, busy!

Wow! Its been a while since I've visited here...I'm not entirely sure what happened to last week, it just seemed to fly by me in a blur! I hope you're all keeping well!

I just wanted to stop by a share a new card with you that I've created for two challenges.....

This picture isn't the best I'm afraid, I'll try and get another one this week and upload that instead. Do you remember I made a Hap-pea Birthday card before? Well I told you the peas would be back! I think they make a really cute Valentines Day card for the not so mushy couple (I'm thinking of my boyfriend now!!). I love the eyes they make me smile and I think it makes a nice change to see a green Valentine's Day card!

This card is for the Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge where the theme this week is Valentines and the Allsorts challenge where the theme is "it must be love, love, love!" Both blogs have some gorgeous DT cards featuring this week, pop by if you get the chance!

Hopefully I'll be back soon with some more cards.

Thanks for stopping by today,

Old Macdonald Had a Farm!

Morning Peeps! Hope you're all well on this chilly morning!

I had a lovely evening last night...I went to a Pampered Chef party! If you haven't been to one before its a bit like a stylish tuppa-wear party! They have all kinds of wonderful kitchen products and gadgets...someone hosts the party and led by the host you all help to cook things! Its products are great and its just a lovely evening!

Today I have a card for this week's challenge over at Cupcake Craft Challenge and to be honest I think I might be stretching their theme a little bit...but I'll let the lovely cupcake ladies be the judge of that! Their theme is Old Macdonald Had a Farm and here is my card:

Ok, so its not the fist thing you first think of when someone mentions a farm and it doesn't appear in the song...but you find bees on farms so I'm hoping the Cupcake Ladies agree with me! This cheeky little Bee wishing everyone a lovely Birthday is a fab digi image from Bugaboo Stamps, and I just love him!
As you know I can't get enough of polka dot papers and I think the black looks just fab with the yellow and lilac!

I'm off to work now, so I hope you have a lovely Tuesday...see you soon! Thanks for stopping by today.
