Thanks for popping by today....

Snow...

 oh how I wish...its still very warm here but a change has been forecast.....

made using the new crafters companion dies and decoupage...I did have some of the original Tattered Lave monumental dies but these are much small...fit into a 5x7 envelope so I think Iwill use them a lot more...my excuse for buying them...

I hope you are safe and well and thanks for popping by today.

Christmas

 its already 28C here this morning and I am longing for the forecast thunder storms to cool things down.....

I have made this for one of my bird watching friends its so hard to find images  for men at christmas and I thought this one perfect...Sweet designs dies....

I hope you are keeping well and staying cool....take care 

Happy Birthday

 made using one of the carnation craft Friday freebie vignettes and my scan and cut...

and one of my really old sentiments...

Thanks for popping by today I hope you are enjoying your crafting...take care.

a crafty project....

 I needed a box and a card to put a birthday gift in so I made one of these drawer easel cards..no idea if its the correct name...

not the best photo .....made with the carnation crafts book die and a crafters companion box and draw stencil...the draw will be filled with my friends favourite dunking biscuits....

Hope you are keeping well...its still not too hot here but the forecast is for higher temperatures towards the weekend so keep cool....thanks for popping by today.

 I have been doing a bit of colouring today ....

the stamp set is MFT ...Santas Elves...such fun to colour but note to self if you are going to glitter use alcohol markers not water colour to reduce bleeding into the glitter....
