Lili of the Valley - New Release Coming Soon

Hello Everyone, 
Thank you for all your get well wishes. It's not been a great few weeks but I now have antibiotics from the Drs so hopefully things will start getting better soon. 
Mr mojo has done a bunk and I haven't really felt like doing any crafting...but Lili of the Valley are soon going to be releasing some brand new stamps and these little cuties are on one of the sets....I just couldn't resist!

I've coloured them with promarkers and added a scrap of paper from Craftwork Cards. It's quite a cas card as I didn't really have the energy to do anything else! Maybe next time I'll get a bit more done!

I'd like to enter the following challenges:-

Thanks for taking the time to visit my little blog today. I hope you are all having a fabulous weekend

Asking the Flowers - PBSC

Good Morning Everyone, 
Firstly, thank you for all your get well wishes I really appreciate them. My cold turned into some sort of flu virus and completely floored me. I'm not back at work yet and my house looks like it's been hit my a tornado! Also Mr Mojo has done bunk and it feels like years since I last made a card!
Anyway, it's the first Saturday of the month and that means a brand new challenge over on the Penny Black Saturday Challenge Blog. The theme this month is ....

ANYTHING GOES

(Option : 'Flowers')

I have used an old favourite for today's card. This is 'Asking the Flowers'.

I've coloured him with promarkers and copics and the paper is from my box of scraps. The sentiment is from penny Black.

Chilly Penguins

Hello Everyone, 
It's my first Christmas card of the year, as ever all the promises to get ahead with them and in reality....mmm! To be honest I've had a stinking cold for almost 4 weeks now so haven't really felt like crafting or spending time on the computer. I'm starting to feel a little better now so thought I'd better get cracking and this one was perfect for today as we have had a little bit of snow and it is very chilly!
I've used an image from Di's Digi Stamps today, this is Chilly Penguins.

I've coloured them with promarkers and the background papers are from Lili of the Valley. I've added a Marianne Designs snowflake die and a sentiment stamp from Lili of the Valley. The gorgeous ribbon is from The Ribbon Girl.

Christmas bags

Hello Everyone, 
I was asked to make a few (about 30!) of these bags for this years Christmas fair at school so I thought I'd better make a start. 

I found some old art sheets from Lili of the Valley with some gorgeous James the Bear images on. I fussy cut the images and added a bit of glossy accents to the stars. I used one of the recent paper pads from LOTV - Vintage Christmas which is still available.
