James Bear - Sledging along

Good Morning Everyone, 
I hope you're all having a good weekend. I went to the Papercraft Show at Harrogate yesterday, spent a small fortune, came home very tired but had a lovely day! I even managed to make a card this morning, first one for a few days!!
This is a Lili of the Valley stamp called, James Bear, Sledging Along. Sorry for the poor photo. I would blame the camera, but lets face it, it's the operator that's not too good!! lol.
I've coloured him with my promarkers and the background papers are from one of the new pads at LOTV.
The snowflake die is from Marianne Creatables and the corner die (bought yesterday) is Memory Box. I blame Lisa (Wishcraft) for this one, every time I visit her blog I find something else to add to my wishlist!! (sorry Lisa!)Her cards are gorgeous! I also used a the Frostyville border die by Memory Box.

I'd like to enter the following challenges
Lillies Little Fairies - Christmas for the Boys
Passion for Promarkers - For a Man/Youth
Make it Monday - Linky Party
Incy Wincy Designs - Bears, Bears, Bears

Thanks for visiting my little blog today and for all your lovely comments. I really appreciate them
I'm taking the children for their swimming lesson now so have a good Sunday and I'll be round to visit you later!

Aimi with Lantern

Hello Everyone, 

I'd like to say a big 'Hello' to my new followers. Thank you very much for taking the time to look at my little blog and I hope you enjoy your visits.

Well, I'm now officially a 'Stay at home mum!' I think I'd better make the most of it before my money runs out and I need to get another job!!

I have a little card to share with you toady. I've used one of the new images from Lili of the Valley, she's called 'Aimi with Lantern'
I've coloured her with promarkers, and used liquid pearls for the decoration in her hair.

The background card is from Kanban. By the time I had layered up the kanban card, black card and mirri card...this card weighs a ton!! 
I've used a Cheery Lynn die to make the 'arch' above the image and I finished off with some gorgeous flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts and a bit of bling and ribbon from my stash.

I'd like to enter the following challenges
Wild Orchid Crafts - Anything Goes
Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes
Divas by Design - Use some texture

Well, as I'm at home I'd better get on and do some housework! - no excuse not to do it now!! LOL

Thanks for taking the time to visit my little blog today and for all your lovely comments.
