Happy Birthday....

 playing again waiting for the tennis to start at 11am....and while the gas man services the boiler...a busy day!

a masculine look I hope...using Spellbinders Sunday drive dies its such a versatile set with lots of add ons....

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

out with the owls......

 I do love this die.....

the owl is from carnation crafts and the branch is a spellbinder die....

Thank you for popping by today, I hope you are enjoying a bit of crafting.....

using up stash....

 I have so much I really need to get on and use some!

I have taken out my Heartfelt creations stuff this time and made one of the few religious cards I need for this Christmas

The weather has been cold and wet the past two days so it has been perfect for crafting in my room before the tennis starts....its the ladies finals at Eastbourne today ...no tennis tomorrow and the Wimbledon on Monday...in my element.

Ihope you are keeping safe and well and thank you for popping by today.

a birthday card....

 I made up a whole load of flowers one day and I thought it was about time I used them ...having seen a beautiful card made by one of the design team from carnation craft I though  I would try my version of it...

the flowers are from the carnation crafts Moments in time collection...I didn't buy any of the other dies so I rummaged around in my stash for Sue Wilson dies for the foliage...the bow is a Tim Holtz bigz die

Holly wreath...Sue Wilson sentiment and a tattered Lace harlequin circle die....lots of creative expressions cosmic shimmer sparkle pearl PVA drops on each of those little foliage fronds....so its very sparkly....

Thank you for popping by today I hope you are keeping well and enjoying your crafting.

Summer Solstice and a frost...

 my goodness the temperature did plummet last night and I even had to turn on the heating! but at least a lovely sunny morning so far.....

I have been playing with my Marianne design bauble creatable die...with of course a LOTV image....I made the card shape on my scan and cut....

Not much crafting going on at the moment as its Eastbourne Tennis tournament and Wimbledon qualifiers this week....just hoping the weather holds up...

thanks forpopping by today and take care.

Christmas card club challenge 13......music

 this weeks challenge is set by  Elizabeth, who sadly is still suffering from long Covid and is finding it difficult to get back to crafting...

my card is based on....Jingle Bells....

the bells are from stamping up...the music free from the internet.

Please pop round the other girls blogs and see their lovely cards.....take care and stay well.

Jingle Bells

 I loved this crafters companion die when I bought it several years ago and it has been sadly neglected....

going with white and gold for a bit of a luxury look.....

the sentiment is a tonic one...again several years old....

Thanks for popping by today...stay safe.
