BOO

Morning girls
Gosh the week seems to have flown in.  I can't believe it's already Friday.  I can't say I've been super busy either so am pleasantly surprised that the weekend is once again upon us.  More crafty time for me!!!!
My card this morning is for the new challenge on Totally Papercrafts.
The lovely Susan has chosen our theme this week and she's like to see creations with

NO SQUARES OR RECTANGLES
Easy peasy!!

Our sponsor

...and my card.


No stamping or colouring from me this week.
I used my Expression with the Wild Card cart:)  I really don't use my cutting machine enough.  Dies seem to have taken over:(   Anyone else the same?  It's a shame really, as when you look through the manuals there is so much they can be used or.  I guess I'm just too lazy to look lol
Anyway, that's my little bit of inspiration for you today.
Have a smashing weekend

just for fun

Well we've got watery sunshine here in Glasgow this afternoon but it's cold and windy.  So, instead of venturing out I locked myself in the craft room and had a little play instead:)    I'd the house to myself too absolute BLISS!!!


I'd a bash at taking the pic with my new daylight lamp.  Not too sure I've achieved the brightness I was hoping for with it but I'll play around some more and hopefully get better results eventually.
ingredients:
papers - First Edition - Stocking fillers
copics and flex markers
die - Lea'bilities 
Stickles on her bow and boots
charm, gems and twine from my stash.
border - Poundland

Right, best go and make a start on dinner.  Gammon steak with home made wedges and salad. We're on a bit of a health kick here in the Cullen household at the moment lol
Happy Crafting girls

Morning girls
Happy Monday.
 Did you all have a good crafty weekend?  I didn't, I made a right old mess of everything I touched.  I bought a couple of new digi's and every one of them I coloured ended up in the bin rather than on a card.  So instead of getting ahead I'm lagging as usual!

Anyway today sees the third challenge over on Digi Galore and we'd just love it if you played along:)
The theme this week is


We're sponsored this fortnight by the lovely Terri 


and the lucky winner will get to choose four of her fabulous images.

OMG, did I have trouble with this one.  Even though Terri gave us some fabulous images to work with I struggled big time:(   I don't usually do 'dark' cards so found this very difficult to get my head around but I think I got there in the end.


So, that's my effort.  Do pop over to the challenge blog for lots more inspiration from my teamies and of course play along too.
Happy Crafting
