Well, my blogging didn't last long! I was so full of good intentions and now I have two of my best friends here so although we'll be making some cards I won't be blogging until they go home. I really must try harder!!! Keep creating everyone and I look forward to catching up very soon. x

Creative Card Crew

I absolutely love shades of black and white and have created this card for the Creative Card Crew challenge of Monochrome Madness.

Mojo Monday meets Pink Elephant

I've managed to get a 2 in 1 here. Let's hope this roll continues as I'm enjoying being back challenging and blogging. The two challenges I've done here are The Pink Elephant who wanted a card done in Pink, Green & Yellow and Mojo Monday Sketch #82. Unfortunately the pink card has come out a bit lilac as the light isn't too great just now and I couldn't wait until tomorrow!!!

Elements :
Embossing - Cuttlebug 'Paisley' & 'Swiss Dots'
Edging - Fiskars 'Scallop'

Dare U 2 Digi Stamp

While blog hopping this afternoon I came across this new challenge site so thought I'd have a go. I love digital stamps and papers as you always have them in your library when you want them and never run out. This card was created for Dare U 2 Digi Stamp and the challenge is Bling. I'm really into bling just now so it was fairly easy. I've glittered the white areas on the trees and put gems in the middle of the flowers so I hope I've blinged enough :)

Hi everyone!

I'm back in the land of the internet. I am feeling fine again and have had my cousin and her husband for the last 5 days. We have had a fabulous time going here, there and everywhere as I wanted to show them as much as possible as this is their first visit to Spain since we moved here. Eating out was another delight but unfortunately all good things have to come to an end and I took them to the airport this morning.It's back to normality (whatever that is) for me now too.

I have a few things to do out and about then it's back to the apartment and work, work, work as I've commissions to fulfil and also get stuff ready for the market on Saturday and Sunday.

I hope you all have a great Eastertime and I'll be back on my blog very soon.

Best wishes to all xx
