Hello Everyone,
There's not much crafting going on in the house just lately! It was my birthday yesterday so we had lots of family over for a meal and a drink or two.....or three.... !
Here's a card I made at the start of the holidays using another one of those gorgeous Sugar Nellie stamps. This is 'On the wings of Love'.
I've coloured her with promarkers and added lots of glitter to her fairy wings. The background papers are from First Edition. I've used a Creative Expressions poinsettia die and a sentiment tag stamp from Lili of the Valley.

Hello Everyone,
We went to the Headingly Carnegie Stadium last night to watch the Yorkshire Vikings v Nottingham Outlaws in the T20 blast......Yorkshire lost but my goodness how cold was it!! Where's the sunshine gone?
I'm back to Christmas cards today. I was looking through all my LOTV stamps and had forgotten that I had this adorable stamp. I've used the rubber version but it is available as a digi stamp, it's called 'Blessed'.
I've coloured them with promarkers and paper pieced their dresses. I also added lots of glitter to their angel wings. The background papers are from First Edition. I've used a Creative Expressions poinsettia die and a Joanna Sheen small fir die. The sentiment tags are from Lili of the Valley.

Hello Everyone,
Emma had a brilliant cricket match on Monday and took 3 wickets against the U13 team. They lost in the end but continued to play in the rain with thunder overhead and still all the girls came off the field smiling.
Anyway, I've managed a bit of a play in my craft room - twice in one week! I've used one of the older images from DigiStamp Boutique for this card as he was perfect for what I wanted. DigiStamp Boutique now comes under the umbrella of Lili of the Valley and you can find some of Sally-Ann's gorgeous images there.
This is.....BBQ Stan
I've coloured him with promarkers and the background papers are from Echo Park- All About a Boy
I've used a Die namics fence die, a lawn Fawn sun die and memory box clouds.

Hello Everyone,
I know...I've been a bad blogger again. This time I've been on my holibobs. We went to Abersoch in North Wales for a few days and were due back for Emma to play in a cricket match...however...the match was cancelled so we stayed in Wales for a few extra days! Back home now and back to reality...Emma has cricket tomorrow!!
I managed a little play in my craft room this morning inbetween the pile of washing, so here's my share for toady using one of the gorgeous stamps from the Christmas Friends set from Lili of the Valley.
I've coloured them with promarkers and distressed all the edges of the layers. The background papers are Bo Bunny - Altitude
