Arty girls challenge

Hi all. Had a fab time yesterday at the show. Spent a small fortune. And i am going back today, my poor credit card will be woren out. Meeting up with my good friend Lyn. It is always nice meeting up with friends. Hope it is not as busy today. Yesterday it was like a cattle market people pushing and banging in to you.
This is my take on this weeks Arty Girlz challenge. It was to use green. The papers are by mm. And the embossing was done with the cuttlebug folders. Just loving butterflies at the moment. Have a good day and takecare.

Studio Calico lo

Run up this lo with papers form the latest Studio Calico scrap kit. My own design.

The kit was called sherwood forest. I will have to get out some of the photo's i took when we were at center parcs ar sherwood forest in dec 2006. I just love center parcs. Wish i was there now. The woods are so beautiful when covered in a touch of frost. Will just have to settle for the yorkshire countryside instead.
Takecare, lots of fog and ice is forecast. Bye for now

Arty Girlz challenge

This is my take on this weeks Arty Girls challenge. It was to stamp. I have stamped the green flowers and the sentiment. The papers are by guess what!! bg again. Can you tell that i have a lot of them at the moment. The stamps are by Maya Road, another favourite of mine. The butterflies are paper punched. Got that idea from Keisha Campbell. I love that girls work. It is a big influence on me. Take a look if you have not already, you will be impressed.
Hope you are having a fab weekend. I am really looking forward to next weekend. It is the great yorkshire paper craft show. I have saved up ready to spend, spend and spend. I may need an extension to my scrap room for all that lovely new stash.
Thanks for looking by.

Di Hickman # 2 feb sketch

Hi all. What a fab day again. Little colder, but still lovely weather to be out and about. Hubby is off at the allotment, tending to our organic fruit and veg. The difference in taste is just unbelievable. The corn on the cob last year was devine. I am not really into the cultivating bit, just really into the eatting bit.
This is my take on this weeks Di Hickman sketch. Loved this sketch. Just keep thinking it will be my turn next month to be on the dt. I am so excited.
Anyway used papers by the lush basic grey. Paper punch for the hearts. I love this little scolloped heart. I was lucky enough to pick one up really cheap when they were selling them off a one of my local craft shops.

Have a lovely weekend. takecare and thanks for stopping by.

black white for the girls and pink for the boys

Morning, what a lovely day. Unfortunately i am not off work this week at half term, but i am off today. Plan to go for a walk up on Brimham rocks this afternoon. Really looking forward to getting out in the fresh air.
We have been beavering away at the bathroom. Well mainly ian, as he is off this week. Only the carpet to lay and then it is done. It looks so much brighter.

Did this grungey lo of my nephew at the weekend. The photo was taken just before he left for his tour of duty. Really like grunge at the moment. Based this on the sketch this sketch for last week.

This is the lo i did for the scrapbook club which met this weekend. Used papers by doodlebug. They are delish. Blossom is by bazzil. lovely.

Have i lovely day. Thanks for looking in.
