Heidi–Victoria Case

I’ve had this coloured up for a little while now just waiting for the right moment to use her.

Heidi by Victoria Case is still available as a digital download from here

The trim and the button is from what I purchased yesterday at the haberdashery stall. Some Prima innocence blossoms a Cheery Lynn flourish vine die a whimsy ticket some copics and Martha Stewart edge punches and a bit of love to bring it all together.

Midas Touch

I found some new pretties to play with today and it seams they have given me the Midas Touch, not really but I was playing around in my graphic program and loved this look.

I found my pretties in a little haberdashery stall but I better let you see the real colours.

We made a New Years resolution to get our meat from our local butchers rather than the supermarket mostly because we think the local shops need supporting but more so because of the taste, last week however we ended up buying from the supermarket as if you remember Chris had took me out to get me some fresh air after being unwell, well it made us realise that the quality from the local butcher just knocked spots off the supermarket stuff.

So today we called into the butchers and I got my eye on some Oxtail, when I was at home oxtail was one of my Dads favourite dinners, the juices would drip off his chin, I have bought some and I will wear a bib when eating it.

I hope you are all enjoying your Saturday and where ever you are you are warm and cosy, we are going for a pizza tonight and then sitting down to the TV as Mrs browns Boys is on tonight and it is the last one in the series, if you haven't yet seen it and you could do with a good old belly laugh it can still be found at BBC iPlayer here

Frog Friend–Whimsy Stamps

I just could resist this little digital stamp by Whimsy Stamps, he is such a love, he is looking as if he is trying to figure it out, I know we often watch our Jack and wonder what is going through his mind.

Coloured with Copic Sketch Markers and teamed with background papers from my stash I used some lint, buttons and a heart paperclip with some gingham ribbon knotted around it and spellbinders nestabilities to cut out and frame the image.

Shutter Card–My Heart D’Arcy’s Diaries

I thought I would give a shutter card a whirl, it was fun to try it out.

I used My Heart from D’Arcy’s Diaries and coloured it with Copic Sketch markers.

The papers are DCWV the Die used for the flourish is Fanciful Flourish by Cheery Lynn and the blossom is a Prima blossom

I have hospital today for more blood tests, I'm starting to resemble a pin cushion.
