Sketch Saturday... #92

Hi,
I hope you are having a great weekend... I have had a nice day today with my mum and my children... I love days where I get to enjoy their company...
I also made this card... the papers are from DCWV and the image is among the many my mum has passed on to me to play with... I love the sketch ... it's from Sketch Saturday #92.


Hoping to do some more crafting tomorrow... maybe even a bit of scrapbooking, who knows!!!
Have fun!

Caardvarks sticker challenge

Hi,
Well, my week feels like it's been emotionally exhausting... I'm not going to bore you with details of my personal life, don't worry! It has just left me no time for crafting... until this evening... I have got into a routine of sorting myself out so that I can craft now on a friday evening.
And here is my take on Caardvarks sticker challenge... I have had these little stickers forever and they are very pretty. The papers are DCWV Nana's Nursery and are gorgeous!


I need some blank cards so I am going to have to make a trip to a craft shop over the weekend... oh dear me... It's my birthday on tuesday so I am going to buy myself a little treat too...

I hope you have had a better week than me... and that you have a lovely weekend.
Off to craft some more... I always do one project at a time... then I clear up and start on the next one... with cross stitching I have multiple projects on the go at anyone time. Strange how we work!

Sketch Saturday

Well, I seem to make girlie cards really easily but I always struggle with the ones I need for the boys!!!!! This is my take on the sketch #91 over on Sketch Saturday... one for the boys... I am actually really pleased with it. It's about the only 'fishing' thing I have in all my stash!
I am hoping to continue my play with my stash later... my kids keep arguing today, it's driving me up the wall! They are back to school tomorrow so it'll be earlier bed tonight and I think I will need it too!!!
Happy sunday!

Acceptance card...

Hi,
This morning I have ditched the housework and gone straight for the crafting... I needed to make an Acceptance card for a cousins wedding and found a lovely inspiring sketch on Just Christmas And Birthday Cards - Sketch #56. I am a newby to this blog and it's gorgeous. I am even going to make sure I make a Christmas card too. It makes so much sense starting them early. Only thing is... I had terrible trouble trying to take a photograph of this card because of the silver mirror card... I lost count of how many I took!!!!
I can't believe we have snow again this morning. I have lived here for 10 years this april and in that time up until just before christmas last year, it had snowed here twice. Once as I went into hospital to have my daughter and one sunday morning when the children were smaller, we ran out to play in it and it was all gone by tea time!!!! Then all of a sudden now we keep getting loads!!!! It's bizarre!!! So todays tasks are to keep the kids happy, stay warm and craft!!!!!
Hope you have a lovely day and stay warm,
Hugs

2 Sketches 4 You - 46

Hi,
Here is a rather simple take on the 2S4U #46... this is my favourite stamp, it's gorgeous... I actually intend to send this to an Auntie of mine...

As it has been half term I haven't done much crafting at all... managed a scrapping session for an evening, but haven't uploaded the photo's yet. Now I have a really stinking cold which I caught off my daughter... loves to share with her mum!!! So I am going to bed in a bit with a hot lemon and my book!!!

Hope you have a lovely weekend,

Sketchy Thursday 2.11

Hi,
This week has been a difficult week. Let's just say one word and leave it at that! 'Men'!!!!
So crafting time just hasn't happened... until today!
Here is my take on Sketchy Thursdays 2.11 Sketch... what a fun LO! These pics of the children were not that brilliant, but they keep on at me to put them on a page. This sketch is absolutely perfect for them... thank you so much for the inspiration! I had fun making it.

Hope you have had a lovely weekend...

Mojo Monday #125

Hi,
Another week begins... more washing, more ironing, more cooking, more crafting... ha! Hope you had a lovely weekend. We spent the weekend at my mum's and the children loved it. They took lots of games and we all enjoyed playing them... nice to have some fun time with the children and nothing else that needs doing!!!!
I have started the week off with Mojo Monday 125 Sketch, which I have really enjoyed playing with... The papers are K&Co... very pretty, I think.

I actually had a bit of play with my cuttlebug, but have not actually used anything on a craft project yet... I need to get a C-plate, but everyone seemed to be out of stock of them last week!!!!

Anyway, almost time to fetch the children from school, so I need to run.

Hope you find time to play too.

Hugs

Friday Sketchers #88

Hello!
Hope you have had a good week... and are all set for the weekend.
I have had one of those weeks that just hasn't had 'kim' time... I was feeling off at the beginning of the week, and my daughter was ill Wednesday and Thursday. I have been so determined to organise myself so that I could craft this evening... sorting dinner, kids entertained and OH at work...
Here is my take on Friday Sketchers #88... what a fun sketch! I wanted to do a girlie one really, but I need a couple of cards for boys...

Anyway, off to make the most of my evening...

Mojo Monday 125

Hi,
Hope you are feeling better than I am today... have felt really off all day... so after struggling with the housework this morning, I decided to give myself some 'me' time to craft this afternoon instead of doing the ironing, and it made me feel better. Although the thought of cooking really makes me feel ill again!!!!!
Here is my take on the Mojo Monday sketch 125... what a lovely sketch! These are some K&Co papers I had left from a Disney scrapbooking album... and a lovely fairy image.

I love the DT cards... they are all gorgeous! Thank you for sharing...

Hugs

Kim
