Shaped cards

I bought these elegant rectangles from Craftwork Cards on my recent trip to Ally Pally. They are so sweet when folded in half and make lovely little cards. I have decorated this using a message also from Craftwork Cards and a dress punched out using a Woodware punch, topped off with a dress peel off.

Another number card

Using scraps once again, a simple card for a one year old girl. Sorry for the side ways on piccie.

Daughter's creation

Aimee asked me to post a picture of the necklace she made. She was meant to be fast asleep in bed, but instead she was busy creating this knotted necklace.

Scraps.....what do you do with them?

Over on UKScrappers, CraftFairy has set a challenge to use our scraps. Have a look at her blog here http://craftfairy.blogspot.com/. I have today used my scraps to make number cards. I've cut the numbers using my Cricut (which just needed a little dusting off).

Peel Offs!!!

I have never been a fan of peel offs...apart from the odd sentiment on a card, but at Ally Pally I discovered these lovely peel offs from Little Claire Designs. Coloured in with my growing range of promarkers, I think they look great.

...and another

an extremely plain and simple layout from our holiday to Texas a few years ago. If this crafting energy continues I may finish my holiday album.....just another 300 photos to tackle.

It's happened...

What has happened you may well ask..........I've created something. It's only one scrapbook layout but it's a start. This is Aimee trying her hand at a bit of rodeo at the school Summer fete last year.

Ally Pally Stash

As you may have noticed my blog hasn't been updated for such a long while. I spent a fantastic day at Ally Pally yesterday, hoping to gain some inspiration as mine has been lost somewhere. I didn't just gain inspiration but rather alot of stash found it's way home with me.
