Good Afternoon All,

HOW exciting NEW releases from All That Scraps!  I always love this time of month and all the excitement that follows especially amongst the DT girls, we all can never wait to share all the new cuties.  And this one is SUPAH cute!  I love Christine’s Honey stamp designs and she just keeps making them cuter and cuter if that’s even possible!?  So with this Honey I am playing along with Paper Sundaes and their challenge is ……BACK TO SCHOOL…..  Perfectly fitted to this cutie to boot.  Here is my card….

Stamps : Teacher Honey Coming to All That Scraps and Unity Sentiment.

Papers : Kraft and Brown Cardstock. October Afternoon Thrift Shop and Report Card.

Other : Buttons, Magnolia Tilda Lace Die, Lace, Charm and Black and Cream Ribbon.

I feel like such a nuffa because I didn’t cute the middle bit out of her legs.  I have done this twice now, you’ll see lol!  I made the card then cut her out and then even stuck her down and THEN coloured her!  NOW if I had of made the card, coloured her then stuck her down when she was coloured the white bit would had stuck out and I would had cut it out before sticking her down.  OH well one of those things I’ll just have to get over hehe…..Try hahaha!

Well last night I set about using the gorgeous Shy Sammy which is now available as a digi HERE….. Absolutely adorable and so many uses you wont want to NOT add Sammy to your collection!  I was looking around for inspiration and usually to do that I look at challenges, there is always something that makes my mojo go OH…..OH I have an idea after seeing a challenge or two, now getting the idea onto a card is NOT always the easy part hehe!  But I am playing along with Creative Inspirations and their challenge this week is …….. ANIMALS….. Can you say “perfect” and also joining in with Stamp Something again and their challenge this week is …..SOMETHING FLOWERLY….. with the flowers and papers I think I covered that well and truly, hehe.  And Papertake Weekly Challenges and their sketch this week….  I kinda as usually did go out and change it a tiny weeny bit, hehe…. Here is the sketch…..

And here is my card using this gorgeous sketch as a guide I guess you could say…..?

**Sammy is that Shy that he would not take a good photo out of the 30 something I took, YEAH all of a card lol, this is as good as it gets.  I think my camera is playing up a wee bit!?**

Stamps : Shy Sammy from The Stamping Bazaar HERE…. Sentiment from All That Scraps HERE….

WOW that was a lot of “Other:” I think I did kinda go a tad over board with adding so much on this card but I just couldn’t stop and when they were sprawled all over the place on my desk they all matched and I knew I wanted to have them all on the card.  A busy Shy Sammy hehe…..

And last week I missed What’s On Your Work Desk Wednesday   I hate missing it as I love joining in so much, it’s always so much fun and even more when I take a pic that morning and then share now and it’s the card I was working on!  Usually on Wednesday’s I only have one little girl home with me and we have some “crafting” time, I make cards and she does colouring inn.  ANY WAYS waffles, here is my desk……

Well best get some washing done and more house work, is it just me, or is it really never ending hehe?!

Good Afternoon All,

Well this post has taken me about 3 hours to finish now, lol, thought I might scroll back up and add that to begin with….  And my explanation…. 3 girls, haha.

Well it’s funny but as much as the colours from Paper Romance Challenge are not my style, I loved using them and so when I was thinking last night what to do next………….?  I thought of Hansel in those colours and for the first time ever I made an circle easel card, thank you Pink Lady, Debbie Pamment *link in sidebar* and her easy to follow tutorial!  So Hansel as you know is playing along with Paper Romance Challenge of Chocolate, White and Teal.  He’s been picking flowers to play along with Stamp Something and their challenge this week is Flowery and with Hansel and his bunch of flowers and the webster bloom I think I covered it, which means I also covered Create 4 Fun and their challenge this week is Flowers…..  So here is my card….

Stamps : Hansel from The Stamping Bazaar and Sentiment from All That Scraps.

Papers : Kraft, Cocoa Cardstock, Prima, Websters and October Afternoon…

Other : Websters Bloom Flower, Cream Lace, Ribbon, Magnolia Vintage Tag and Tilda Lace Doohickey’s, Martha Stewart Butterflies Punch and Brown Ribbon.

So there you have it my very first circle easel card and I can see many more coming it was FUN, simple and easy to make but so effective!  Smaller space to and so great for that little quick card, although there ain’t nothing quick about this lol, still took me a good hour or more.

WELL you might had noticed another blog change!  Poor Heather she is absolutely amazing and when I seen all the new headers she was pumping out and they have like a whimsical look and I LOVED my old header and when I asked, just asking Heather, but ummm if I were to say etc etc she came back with this response and I am in LOVE all over again WOW, and THANK YOU again Heather!  That’s not all you’ll be seeing from her

Well I best get all the uniforms ready for tomorrow and what not, bit of a lazy Sunday happening here and hubby just got home so girls are all over him, hehe Daddy’s girls for sure!

Hello there,

Before I start I just wanted to thank everyone that has been helping me out with looking for a desk carousel.  You have all been amazing and I am blown away by how many of you would go out of your way to check your local stores for me!  THANK YOU!  We unfortunately don’t have a Micheal’s here in Australia, but by looks of it BOY I wish we did!

Well the girls are all dressed in their daggy baggy clothes ready to go out with their dad to the farm and run a muck and see their Nanna.  Which will then equal quite, dvd and crafting me time, whoo hoo, has been a few weeks since I have had that.

So last night I was blog hoping and the night before as well and came across some amazing first time challenges and then some of the regular challenges I LOVE to join in with.  I am playing along with Cupcake Craft Challenges and their challenge this week is …. Cats and Dogs….  And this little puppy is perfect and will fit right in over there.  Then I am joining for the first time Paper Romance Challenges and their challenge is Chocolate, White and Teal….  Boy did I struggle a little with the colour teal, just never seem to have any of it when I need it?!  Also playing along with Sasya’s Sketch, I will admit I did change it a little as I could not get it to work the way I wanted it to in my mind so switched and added a few things here and there, lol not surprised!  Here is the gorgeous sketch….

And here is my card using the sketch as guide hehe….

Under the sea

Out in the sun they slave away
While we devotin’
