fancy a game of golf!!!!

Good afternoon to all my lovely cyber friends, sorry if i get the occasional typo, im writing with those darned metal wrist splints on lol,

 isnt it a better day today lol tho it wont be lasting as its given rain for tomorrow, so whilst its nice i have washed the voiles and gotten them on the line lol,

Ive been and had my hair done again this morning as it was in need of a trim and a colour to get rid of the ever returning silver hairs lol

Anyway on tuesday my mum gave me 2 orders that needed to be done for saturday!!!!

one was for a chap who likes golf(this card im showing you today will be for him)

and the other was to have cats on,

ill share that one with you later.

So Here is my golf card, if you didnt know already it is using a bugaboo image!!! arent these just amazing? i love every single one of those, espesh the humourous ones, im just deciding wether to add the lost my balls comment on the inside lol.

I made the card using the papermania papers, card candy, pastel blue card stock and lots of stickles lol, the sentiment i purchased from a cyber friend so not sure whos they are,

Here is a close up of my colouring, what do you think? ive been practicing alot these days as ive spent fair few evenings in on my own with hubby at work so took the chance to get my pro's and copics out,

can you see all that sparkle lol, im addicted to shiny things lol

I would love to enter this card into the following challenges

1- Charisma - Male cards

2- Do you stack up - Men/boys

3- Craft your passions - Anything goes

4- Dream valley - For that special guy

5- Sketch and stash - The sketch

My new stash is the fabulous image this is the first time i have used him and my old neglected stash is the papers and card candy, ive been using adhesive gems alot in place of card candy lately, 

So for now my lovely cyber friends i say see you later lol, if i get some time i will share another card with you in a bit.

hugs xxxx

a spoon full of sugar #71

The challenge at a spoonful of sugar is christmas this week, so here is my entry, im really behind on my christmad cards and have loads to make (yes i know its only september) but the weeks go by so fast dont they?

To make this card i used;

• last years christmas paper pack from dovecraft
• card candy from craftwork cards
• white sakura pen for faux stitching
• dufex sticker matted and layered onto light blue card

a really simple card and simple to put together only took around 15 minutes

a sympathy card

I was asked to make a sympathy card a few days ago, as its always a shame when you have to make one of these i decided not to use a challenge for it and keep it simple, i embossed the vellum and then cut it with my nesties to create the backing for the flowers, and used my ribbon punch on the sentiment so i could thread through the lace,

To make this card i used

• oval scallop nesties
• vellum
• paisley cuttlebug embossing folder
• lace
• sentiment from stash
• card candy from craftwork cards
• backing paper is a pearly paper from papermill i think
• flowers are from my local craft shop.

A fairly simple design i think but appropriate for the cause, what do you think?
