add a sentiment

Morning girls
Brrrrrrrrrrr I'm chilled to the bone and have been for the past few days.  Whilst it's not exactly brilliant sunshine it's not terribly cold out either so am keeping everything crossed I'm not coming down with something nasty!  

It's that time of the week again where we announce the new challenge over on Crafty Sentiments Designs.  The theme this week was chosen by the lovely Cathy and she'd like to see a
SENTIMENT on your creation

The lucky winner will receive


Easy peasy right???  Lot's of scope with this one so I do hope you all play along:)

It's back to the craft desk for me.  I've a load to get through this week and none of them started so best get to it and at least get some images and papers sorted.
Happy Crafting

Just riding along in my automobile

Morning everyone
We've a bright blue sky this morning but will it last is the million dollar question.  If we get anymore rain it'll be a canoe and paddle to do the weekly shop never mind a car.  It rained non stop yesterday from dawn, I won't say till dusk as it was torrential when I went to bed with gales to match.  It's May for goodness sake!!
I remember, many moons ago, you got a new summer dress and sandals ect for the first Sunday in May.  The poor kids today will be getting new wellies and a mac lol
Anyway I'll stop the waffle and show you my card for today.


flourish - Marianne Designs - Lavender
flowers - Wild Orchid Crafts and local craft shop
Spellbinders
copics
sentiment - I made on the pc

She's a cutie eh?  I'll let you into a little secret:)  I made this for one of my DT and when I went to upload it I realised I'd totally gone off on a tangent and forgot all about the theme for our challenge.  I was obviously engrossed in my own little craft world but hey ho it's back to colouring I go lol
Enjoy your holiday weekend girls.  I've nothing special planned other than crafting:)

anything but a card

Morning girls
wayyyyyyyyyhayyyyyyyy it's Friday.  I'm hoping for a laid back and restful weekend with a vino or two, maybe even three!!  Some sunshine to brighten the days would be good too.
Anyway I've a little wall hanger to show you which is for the new challenge over on Polka Doodles.
This fortnight we'd like to see 

ANYTHING BUT A CARD


I've a load of old and unloved CD's so thought I'd alter one of them. I started by loading the papers and images from Double Sprinkle of Craft into my graphics programme and created the little scene digitally.  Resized to fit onto the CD and added a few more bits and pieces to give it some dimension.  It actually took me longer to fiddle with the graphics than it did to put it all together:)
Have a smashing weekend girls

What's On Your Workdesk?

Morning girls
Well I knew it was too good to be true.  After yesterdays lovely spring sunshine it's back to normal with dismal skies and more of the wet stuff:(
Never mind, today, for the first time I've decided to join all of you lovely ladies who show us what your working on.  Yip, I'm showing me work, warts and all over on Julia's Stamping Ground
I've just noticed that this is week 204!!!
 Oh wow how cool is that?  Here's me just begining to play along too.
So what's on my desk?



Nothing too exciting really.  Just some colouring that I'm working on at the moment.  This little bundle will make their way onto some cards  over the coming week.  Well fingers crossed they do.
Happy Crafting girls, enjoy your day
