First Mojo Monday Card...............

Lately as I've been mentioning I've nearly come to a full stop with my car making so when I saw the Mojo Monday blinkie on one of the blogs I was visiting I popped over to see what it was all about.....hence the card I am going to post. I think the templates are great and a good idea and if they can help me kickstart my mojo I'm all for it...lol

Well here it is then...hope it fits the bill.




This is the template we had to follow.


For the card I used a backing paper from Jak Heath Designs and the image was a newsletter freebie stamp from Stitchy Bear Digital Stamps....the rest of the elements were from my stash.

Well its a short but hopefully sweet visit for this posting...will be back soon...thank you for popping in...take care!!

Not A Card..........

As the title says this upload is not a card but another digi-scrapbook page.....I was at a bit of a loss last night and was looking through my photographs when I came across the one I've used on my page and so I decided to scrap it. I love scrapping the grandchildrens photos...I know I'm a bit early for the Easter theme but please bear with me.....LOL....with the "crafters block" I've been having of late anything I produce is a good step...LOL...so here it is.....




The page was made using elements from a Daisytrail kit.

Thanks for popping in...please call again...take care!!

Sir Stampalot Challenge........

This is my first challenge card this year but hopefully wont be my last...lol.....I'm hoping I can kick-start my mojo and get around to making more cards and entering more challenges.....I'm hopeless at the moment !!

Anyways here's the card I made as my entry for the January Sir Stampalot Challenge "A Winter's Tale".....hope you like.




Image.................."Ice Princess" - Stitchy Bear Digital Stamps coloured with Promarkers.
Background........"Snow Queen" digital scrapbook kit - Digi Crea.
Glitter paper, brads, flower and braid from my stash.
The sentiment "Winter Wishes" was stamped with Encore Ultimate Metallic Silver.....I also used glamour dust on her hair and on the 'whats-it' she's holding but it doesn't really show up in the photo.

Well I'm afraid that's it for this posting...thank you for popping by...call again soon...if I dont get to post again in the next couple of days I hope you have a lovely weekend.....take care.

A Belated HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!......

Well here I am back from my Christmas holiday in England and at the moment am trying so hard to catch up with all my blog visits......must have missed so much......but onwards and upwards as they say......LOL.

To everyone who visits and reads my blog I hope you had a lovely Christmas and hope that 2011 brings you all that you're hoping for...but most importantly health and happiness!! We had a fairly quiet Christmas and New Year but had a lovely time and loved seeing everyone. It was great being with the grandchildren again...they are really growing up...you dont really see it as much when you're looking at them sat at the computer speaking on Skype...but we loved every minute of it and boy do I wish I had my youngest grandson's energy......LOL.

Don't know who makes New Year resolutions anymore...lol...but I've made one or two...not that I'm going to tell you what they are...just in case they're not fulfilled...lol...though a couple of them are craft related !!

In my last posting I said that I'd be back to post some more cards before we went away...well it ended that I was just too busy and never did get back on here.....I thought I'd just forget it and not post them now Christmas has gone...but I've noticed people are still posting them for one reason or another so I've had a change of mind and am now going to upload them. Here goes..............





The above card was photographed before I put the snowflake in the top corner of the topper...it did look much better with it...but forgot to re-photograph the card...not to worry...lol







Well that's it for now.....thank you for looking.....hope you call again.....have a lovely weekend.....take care!!

Another Card To Share.........

Hello there hope you're all well.....I've just been having a quick blog-hop and catch up.....as usual great stuff on show....lots of talented ladies. As the title 0f the post says I've another card to share with you. I used a download from The Clipart Fairy for the image......the holly paper is from Shirley's Cards.....everything else used is from my stash.

Will be posting more at the end of the week hopefully then I dont know if I'll be posting anymore this year because next week I'll be getting ready to go on my "jolly hollyday" to England.....we're going over for Christmas and the New Year.....and I cant wait......0nly 10 more sleeps....LOL...LOL

Anyways here's the card I came here to post...hope you like.




While I'm here I'll post another digi scrapbook page too.....as I've said before (I think..lol) I'm really getting into this.....its really fun and also very addictive. I used Wishing On A Starr's freebie kit "It's A Kind Of Magic" for the page but added the mask, butterflies and flower centres from elsewhere.



Thank you for popping by......call again soon.....I'm now going to see if my washing machine is finally going to play nicely I haven't been able to get it to start this morning....and that's all I need at the minute a broken washing machine.....will have to wait until OH gets home from golf this evening if I cant remedy the situation.....never mind will have to console myself with a bit of crafting....LOL

Until next time......take care!!

Oh my....I see its going to be one of those days I think...my signature has disappeared now...I'm counting but I dont know if I'll reach 10.....!!!!

Hello again........

Another card and a scrapbook page from not so sunny Spain to show you...the weather is awful at the minute but I have to say not half as bad as it is in the UK....it looks really dreadful by what we've been seeing on the news. Hope you dont have to suffer it for too long.

Well down to what I came on here for...my uploads...the card is for my nephew who's birthday it is on Thursday hope he still likes Ben 10 I should really have checked first.



I received another FSB....the Featured Scrapbook for today....thrilled again...but it was only on a second thought that I uploaded it to DaisyTrail...I didn't really do the page to upload it...I was just having a mess around with various elements from different kits but then I thought well I wont lose anything by doing so and as I've said it got me the FSB....lol The children in the picture are my grandchildren.



Well this was a quick visit but that's it for today I'm afraid....until next time thank you for stopping by...take care!
