Nesty Eggs - Easter Blessing

This is another stamp set by Waltzing Mouse Stamps which I just new that I had to have.
Stamped onto a mustard coloured card heat embossed white white detail powder and layered with brown card.

Attention to detail...

A little bit of sponged on whit ink to the center of the egg gives it the appearance that it is rounded.

A pearl added on each cross of the pattern makes the egg pop.

Diet Update

Well I went along to the slimming club on Thursday & I have to admit I was dreading it, I had a horrendous 3 weeks and trying to get back on track seemed impossible.
I gingerly stepped on the scales terrified at the result, but, to my delight I had maintained the weight I was before I went away.
So I felt inspired and on Friday I was extra good.
Saturday came and I was very very good until I had Pizza for tea.
Today I have been good up until my lovely hubby went to Asda and bought me a Maple Pecan Pastry.
How on earth do I loose weight.
How have you all been doing?


Craftrak

I joined in with some new fun to hit the card making world.
Make a card use the number on the reverse to log it in Craftrak, send the card and both receiver and sender can track the card.



My very first Craftrak card made and ready to post on Monday. All SU stamps were used to make the card.





and the 2nd made using the Indian Summer stamp set by Rubber Stamp Tapestry.

This is so much fun, you don't know what you are missing out on, your card could end up anywhere in the world.

Sam in Trouble

Ohhhh butter wouldn't melt.
Sam in trouble, a digi stamp by Mo Manning, printed then coloured with Promarkers then cut out with Nestabilities label dies, the teal shape under the labels is a Spellbinders Pendant die shape Fleur de lis and a quartered the shape and added the Fleur de lis to each point of the label die cut.

Attention to detail...



The background was embossed using the Swiss Dots A2 Cuttlebug folder then dabbed with a teal ink, the edges of the card was distressed using the Ranger cut n dry foam (you know the one that Tim Holtz uses) and then a blossom was punched out a an Aqua pearl popped into the centre.
