Some Fabby Dabby News

Hello everyone how are you all? Well the plan was to start the garden today, we are extending the decking a little bit so went B&Q  to get some decking planks. As soon as we got back hom eit started raining :0( Yep so no gardening done............

Anyhoo's I have some fabby dabby news, I'm now a new member on Deep Ocean Challenge blog, wooooooooo hooooooooo. I really do feel a bit out of my depth, literally a little fish in the deep ocean, they are all so uber talented!! 
The theme this fortnight is super easy................
STITCHING REAL/FAUX
.............see how easy is that. This is a card I made quite a few weeks ago but didnt know if I liked it but with me being poorly it came in handy lol. Of course as I stitch all my cards it fit the theme ;0)
I've not done a wedding type card before so when I brought & coloured this image a few months ago I thought it would be the perfect time lol. She sat in my coloured up box for a while bless her :0(

The lace & white seam binding are from my stash. The Metal Rose & the Organza Rose Trim with Pearls are from Live & Love Crafts.

All flowers are from WOC except the end white ones which I cant remember where they are from, I've had them forever.

The image is a digi image from Time For Tea Designs on Etsy. This one is called 'Wedding Belle' & I coloured her with Copics, then added small white pearls randomly around the image.

The lush papers are Marianne Design 'Vintage Romance' which were from Bunny Zoes as always I machine stitched all the papers. I also added a 'Metal Corner' which was from LLC.

Please pop on over & see my fabulous teamies creations, they really are so stunning. Also see the other uber talented ladies that have also joined this fab team.

Thank you so much for stopping by & all your lovely comments. My headaches are a little better so I'm using the laptop in short periods.
Take care lovelies, mmwah.

You're Wonderful

Hello all you lovely peeps around the world. Hope you are all having a lovely Easter. We had a little easter egg hunt for Payton yesterday what her mummmy & daddy did, she was sooooooo cute looking for the eggs in her garden to put in her basket ;0)

Anyway I'm here with a card that I made months ago but only the base of the card if you know what I mean. Sometimes I see papers when I'm looking & think oooh I could do that............so rather than put them on my desk I make the base of the card & then it goes in my drawer.............where I usually forget about it lol. Well its better than having loads of papers on my desk which would annoy the pants off me ;0)
The image however I only added 2 weeks ago...........yeah its still took me til now to blog it, sorry lol, its not the only one either...oops
Yes I've done an Hannah Lynn card, I actually have a few older ones coloured up & one from the last release but they still havn't made it to cards yet. 

The papers are Prima 'Madeline' I think they are called, I would go look but I have a doggy asleep on my lap lol..........it would be cruel to disturb her ;0) I used the 6x6 & the A4 pads for this. The edgeing is my MS PATP set. I finally got most of my punches up on rails last week woo hooo.........yeah the craft room took back stage while we are getting on with the bungalow & garden...........though thats not started quite yet lol.

Ok we have a mixture of Prima & WOC flowers, the die under the smaller flowers is Marianne 'Branch Forest'. The Rose Cabochon & the silver butterfly are from Crafts & Me, I also added white gesso to the butterfly.

The centre large flower I sprayed to soften the colour & to totally soften the bright yellowy/orange in the middle.
The gorgeous image is a new digi from Crafts & Me called 'Expression Study 2' by Hannah Lynn & I coloured her with Copics, I will add the colours at the bottom when I find my little book. The 2 laces are from my stash. The sentiment 'You're Wonderful' is from LOTV 'Handwritten Phrases'.

I'm sorry I've been quiet the last few days I've been suffering with lots of headaches & migraines since Thursday night so I've been keeping off the laptop, although I tried go on Pinterest the other day..........half an hour later I was lying in bed with a towel over my head. Hopefully I will manage some crafting tonight.

Well I'm off as I'm going B&Q while they have the offer on Buy One Get One Half Price on interior doors, I want one for my kitchen & one for my living room, they are half glass ones so will allow more light everywhere.

Okie dokie I'm going now, hope you all have a wonderful Bank Hol monday, take care mmwah.
Thanks for stopping by it really means a lot lovelies
