Daisy Silhouette

I'm in love with a machine lol!

I can now make tags as big as I like (within reason) - tag and sentiment tab both cut on my Silhouette - have had to invest in some more shelves as I've run out of room on my desk.

I would like to share this with:
Flutterby Wednesday - fave colour (purple)
Addicted to stamps - make your mark - image coloured with promarkers
Paper Pretties - punches (butterfly punch)
Whimsy - Anything Goes

Anyone for a cuppa?

What a miserable day it is here today - just right for the school Easter holidays grrrrrr!

Good for putting the kettle on like this little cutie from Elphine House. Not quite sure about the pink sentiment now I've seen the photo but it matches better in real life and the card is already in the post :c)

I would like to enter the Elphine House Pastel challenge and Fab n Funky Embossing.

A soggy wave at my new followers - I wonder if I can get to 250 and then I'll do some more candy......

Is this Vintage?

I was lucky enough to win at Elphine House last week so decided to dig out another of my much loved but sadly unused Elisabeth Belle stamps and join in again.

I have to admit that vintage confuses me so usually end up using kind of sludgy colours, lace, ribbon and pearls. saying that the sage green ribbon I've used is gorgeous and I got loads in an offcut bin in Boyes.

Challenges:

Lets Ink It Up - anything goes

Sentimental Sundays - ribbon

CES - Vintage

Elphine House - vintage

Polka Doodle - vintage / retro
Cutie Pie Challenge - ribbons and lace

Papers: Memory Box

Sentiment: Label from Stitched Up

Stamp: Belles & Whistles Little Eden

Happy New Year

Well it's 2012 and i wonder what it has in store for us all???

2011 was a landmark year for me.

I gave up smoking in February.

I got an insect bite the size of a 2 pence coin in July which made my legs swell up into stumps in July.

I voluntarily gave up my job in December in preparation for a major relocation.

In 2012 I will have a new house a new job and a new me!!!

My blog is also going to show a bit more than cards as my first love has always been fabric probably because both my aunt and grandmother were seamstresses. I used to love going and sitting in my nanny's back bedroom surrounded by thread and remnants.

Anyhoo my card today uses Daisy who arrived at my house all the way from Australia courtesy of Elphine House and because I've used circles I would like to enter their challenge as well as Aud's Sentiments

She also fits my challenge over at MSE "It was essential at the time but it's still in the packet"
