Mojo Monday #132

This card is using K&Co papers... Addison collection... absolutely gorgeous! I used Mojo Monday's #132 sketch for my inspiration for this card...

It's been a fun afternoon... but I have discovered some more ribbons and embellies and am going to spend abit of time sorting through them. I love it when I find things I have forgotten about... especially stuff I know I will use! It's a bit like finding treasure!!!!

Anyway, hope you find time to craft...

Sketch Saturday #96

Back again! These have been made with specific people in mind... I used Sketch Saturdays #96 for this lovely girlie pink card for a cousins little girl who loves to dress up... I am going to put her age on it too... but thought I would take the photo for the sketch first!

Friday Sketchers #95

Hi,
Hope you are having a good week. I didn't get a chance to craft at the weekend. OH had an accident at work on friday night, so he was home for the rest of the weekend. He is ok now and on a course today... as the children break up Thursday I thought I would give myself a craft day as I have the house to myself.
I used Friday Sketchers #95 as inspiration to make this card... it is for my friends Dad, I always have to think more about men's cards... luckily I had this lovely little DIY image... and it went perfectly with this sketch.

Well, off to do some more... need to make 2 more cards today. It's so easy to spend lots of time browsing and end up with very little crafting time, isn't it? So many beautiful websites/blogs with so many wonderful creations and inspirational video's to look at.
Hope the weather is better where you are... it's dreadful here!

2 Sketches 4 U - 48

Hi,
Here is my take on 2S4U #48... great sketch... The papers, ribbons and flowers are from the Do-crafts kit I shared with my mum at the weekend...

I also had a play with the Bonus sketch this week... these papers are K&Co... the Classic K Bailey 6x6 pad...

I am hoping for a decent crafting session tomorrow... unless something comes up... Can never tell!!!

I am off to bed now to read my book for half an hour or so... I am reading The Shakespeare Secret by J L Carrell, I am really enjoying it too... was a bit dubious at first but it has me gripped now.

Hope you are having a good week.

Mojo monday #131

My take on the sketch at Mojo Monday #131. Using papers from the Do-crafts kit again... I did sneak a small fairy in... ha! These are very unusual colours... I actually found it quite hard to match it up... I had fun with this sketch though... nice when the papers are the centre of attention...

Sketch Saturday #95

Hi,
Hope you had a nice weekend... mine was busy and good... not as much crafting time as I would have liked... Popped to the local garden centre and picked up a 'do-crafts' craft bag... think it was February's... all yellow/orangey... my mum and I shared it between us.
So with the inspiration from Sketch Saturday #95 and the lovely bright colours in the kit... I made this card... It is a Daisy and Dandelion stamp that I have had for a while...

I love the bright colours... it's raining here today, but it still makes me feel all warm and spring-like just working with them... hope the sun is shining wherever you are.

2 Sketches 4 You - #48

Hi,
Wow! Friday already... thank goodness! Means I get some craft time... I have made this card for a friend of mine... thanks to 2 Sketches #48 for inspiration... I knew what colours I wanted and the images, but the inspiration came from a lovely sketch...

There are some gorgeous fairy images around these days... I have always had a soft spot for the flower fairies. I can remember having a poem book as a little girl and I lost it when we moved when I was 11. I also lost my Tiny Tears doll at the same time... infact a whole load of our toys disappeared... my mum even went back to our old house to see if we had left the boxes somewhere but they weren't there... funny how you remember certain things forever, isn't it?

My little boy is home with me today. He has another bug from school... a sickness bug has been going round all week! My children eat lots of fruit and vegetables... I cook fresh food, make sure they have their 5 a day and all their vitamins, etc... yet they seem to catch everything!!!!

Anyway, off to tidy up my little mess here...

Hope you are having a lovely day.

Hugs

Kim
