Versatile Giraffe!

Here is a new stamp from Little Claire's Designs. Isn't it cute?

It's so versatile too and here I have used it for a new baby and a Christmas card.

I coloured the image with Promarkers and added Glamour Dust to highlight the snow and the edge of the Nestie.

Fabulous new stash!!

Take a look at the fabulous goodies I bought at Manchester Central the other week!!

Yes, I couldn't resist the loveliness on display and spent wayyy over my budget, in fact I spent all the cash I'd put aside then started on the plastic!! And my wonderful husband only shuddered a couple of times when he realised how much I'd spent AND he was a great bag carrier.

I'd love to know what wonderful goodies you have bought lately - leave me a comment to share x

Candy!!

Over at http://charmedcrafts.blogspot.com the lovely Karen is giving away this gorgeous Annie stamp. The winner will be announced next Sunday :)

Spiky Flowers

Here is my new Spiky Flowers stamp from Little Claire's Designs. I love it!
The photos don't do it justice as they don't show the Glamour Dust adding extra sparkle to the flowers.
This stamp is so versatile and can even be used for shadow stamping :)

Yellow Camellia

I love this stamp from Little Claire's Designs. It is so easy to work with and always makes an eye-catching card.
I used yellow and green card from The Paper Mill Shop and embossed the yellow with my new Swiss dots folder.

I decorated the inside with the beautiful Camellia corners that come with the stamp.

Night Owls

Little Claire's Designs have released another fantastic new stamp. Night Owls is so cute but very versatile too. It can be used for both male and female cards, left uncoloured like mine, or coloured.

I made these DT cards just in time to deliver them in person
to Steve on Little Claire's stand at Manchester Central 2 weeks ago!

I'm back!!!

Woohoo, at last I have my PC back :) These two weeks without it have seemed like two months. Without further ado, I'll start sharing the cards I've made over the last couple of weeks. Here goes:

Made for my lovely Hubby using 'Just an Old Fashioned Girl' download from Pink Petticoat.

A quick card for my son's friend.

Made using papers from stash and my new Tag dies from Little Claires Designs.

Boohoo no pics!!

Well, I feel very frustrated at the moment as our PC is playing up. I'm using the laptop but cant post any pictures as it doesn't have the photo software on it :(
Our very kind friend (who is a computer whizzkid) is struggling to sort out the problem and has had to take the hard drive away to scan it. It doesn't sound too good, does it?

Anyway, on a happier note, I had a great time at the Stitch and Creative Craft Show at Manchester Central on Saturday. I got to meet Steve from Little Claire's Designs and saw some of my sample cards on display! The stand seemed very busy, I hope they did well :)

I spent a fortune as well and my wonderful hubby didn't flinch (much) when I told him how much!! I'll share pics of my new stash with you as soon as the PC is up and running again,

happy crafting

Another award!

My lovely fellow Little Claire DT, Heike has given me a Trendy Blog award. Thank you Heiki, it was very kind of you to think of me :) If you haven't visited Heiki's blog yet, click on her name to have a peek at her wonderful projects.

I'm off to the Stitch and Creative Crafts Show tomorrow, so I'm planning to pop in to the Little Claire stand to say 'hi'. I'm also hoping to find some good bargains and stock up - it's a good job my wonderful hubby is coming along with me to carry my new stash!!

Have a nice weekend
