I hear requests for images for First Communion all of the time and this image is perfect for just that.
First Communion by Mo’s Digital Pencil
Keeping it clean and simple with an embossed white background, punched corners and some pearls and using the Centura Pearl card from Crafters Companion.
Adding a couple of dots of glitter on her veil and head piece and finishing with a silk ribbon and spellbinders cross die.
Wednesday evening, I got home from work to a phone call from Chris, “get your cycling gear on we are going out” I have missed going out due to our typically British weather and because of shows that i had to attend so I knew I had to go.
We set out and it was freezing along the sea front, I thought my fingers were going to drop off, we soon turned off the front and made for the slow climb through an estate which left me gasping when I did it last, I made it to the top and rather than going through another smaller climb I suggested we road on as it was flat, this gave me enough puff to do the next bit.
I made it to the railway crossing with ease and then started the journey back, Chris let me take charge of where I rode, I carried on along a busy road, and up to the park further than I thought I would get and then through an industrial estate and started the journey back home, I got to the top of my street and decided to keep going a little further as I felt fine.
The only thing that was a little tender was my butt, it was starting to get dusk so I even got t use my bike lights, another first for me.
So I smashed my 5 mile total.
So the push to get out did me good.
here is the summery of my ride
and the route
now all of this was well and good but not long after dinner the two of us started to drop off to sleep, we were in bed by 9pm and the next day I was poorly, a bug that had been hanging around me for a week or two.
I’m hoping by Saturday morning I’m able to get back out.
Another project from Creations by AR which would be perfect for the men in your life, young or old.
Whether it is because I live near to the sea and when growing up I used to look at the lighthouse from my bedroom window and watch it’s guiding light flicker on and off, I somehow find the image of a lighthouse calming, I also lost a dear Brother to the sea so something draws me to it and I love to be beside it.
The fun thing about this Lighthouse is that the top section come off so you could hide some goodies inside it. It also holds one of those battery operated tea lights.

Something to look out for in March in your favourite craft shops.

It’s not often that I make teddy bear cards in fact I can’t remember the last time I made one but this little lady was screaming to be coloured.
She comes from the Tiny Dancer Elements set from Mo’s Digital Pencil
I kept the card simple with and embossed white card, it was one of the spellbinders embossing folders one of the A4 sized ones. I used an EK success corner punch on it and then cut out the image with a lacey oval from Spellbinders.
I finished the card with a dotted Papertrey ink ribbon and some gems from Mei Flower
