Castle Howard Proms Spectacular

It is many years since I went to Castle Howard Proms spectacular but what i can say is that it was an amazing night.

Well I’m doing it again this year
I’ll be there waving my flag

Now the last time that I was there  just couldn’t believe my eyes at the splendour, there were tables set with Candelabra's and floral delights that even Florists in London would be proud of so this year I thought I would not be out done so I looked up to buy flowers online whilst doing so I came across this.

So it arrived today and I have to say that it is one of the nicest hampers I’ve seen and just perfect for the occasion. Cutlery, plates wine and cheese, won’t we be the posh ones? I think a picnic basket and hamper is perfect for romantic gifts.
I’ll try to get some photo’s on the night so you can see what it is like.

Biker Babe–Baby Card

Who could resist this little cool dude?

Hard as nails I tell you, hard as nails…

Biker Babe by Mo’s Digital Pencil is just so darn cute,

Coloured with Copic markers and added one scrapbook designer paper by DCWV (striped) and I can’t for the life of me remember the maker of the dotted scrapbook designer paper.

A few craft buttons and ribbon from Fantastic Ribbons and a duck wood shape.

Little Aviator

dream g3Isn’t it just so sweet that Mo did this as a girl too.

Plenty of girls love this sort of thing and I for one was a typical Tomboy being brought up with two older brothers I had no choice.

Dream Girl by Mo’s Digital Pencil

Coloured with Copic Markers, the designer paper is one from Stampin Up and the brown stitched block is a silk sample I received when I was in the Lake District, the sentiment is from the Birds of a feather stamp set by Papertrey Ink and a satin ribbon to finish.

Little Present

How about a hand made Christmas card for the man in your life?

I think Little Present by Mo’s Digital Pencil will be perfect for him.

Little Present1

Coloured with Copic markers and looking very sultry for that special man, I used scrapbook papers from years past for this card and a few Christmas embellishment's from Stampin Up a laser cut wooden snowflake and a two toned sheer ribbon.

I’ve had this coloured for a while but I found a fabulous paper in my stash that you would think I chose especially for the image (I didn’t) I coloured the image with promarkers and it sat on my desk for ages then whilst tidying my scrapbook papers and trying to find some sort of order to them this one popped out and I knew exactly where it was headed.

I made an easel card added a bit of lace and some pretty satin ribbon as a stopper.

Next up is Tammy and I know she will have something wonderful to show you all.
