Can you tell I don’t do Valentine very often? but if you look closely there is a heart, the baby elephants created their own heart with their trunks.

My next one is cram packed with hearts Be Mine especially for the sweet toothed among us.

I love the pastel colours in this one.

Totally Yummy yes?

next up is Lori and she will have something amazeballs to show you.

Don’t forget to leave comments as we have spot prizes along the way.

Lighthouse–From the Heart Stamps

I’m not sure what it is that draws me to Lighthouse images, maybe because when I was young I used to watch the Lighthouse from my bedroom window when I should have been sleeping blinking on and off guiding the sea vessels safely on their way or maybe because I lost a brother to the sea but I love them.

This Lighthouse digital Stamp by From the Heart Stamps is amongst my favourites, it also comes with a couple of sentiments too.

I used a pitt pastel pencil (chalk pencil) for the guiding light and I think it worked well.

Bird Brew

With valentines just around the corner many of us struggle to find a card for our partners that isn’t pink or red or one that is gushing with soppiness but says how we feel about them.

I think Birdbrain Brew at From the Heart stamps will do very nicely.

Coloured with Copic Markers and Chalk Pencils, I also used some liquid applique on the froth, Buttons, Raffia and matting and layering to make the card complete.

All of a Flutter

You know when sometimes you just do something just for the hell of it? well that was me today.

I was getting my nails shaped when suddenly I spurted out have you got time to fit me some eyelashes? yes she said…….

I’m now hoping that I don’t look like Daisy the Cow.

What do you think?

A New Craft for me.

I have took delivery of the most sumptuous material, ever since I first got married I've wanted something for my home but have never been able to find the right size or the right look.

I found the material at Terry's Fabrics and new it was just what I needed, I need to find some trim for it and I will be giving my sewing machine a whirl.

I'm not making curtains, I'm not making cushions but I am making something that my Nanna (Grandmother) used to have.

Can you guess what I'm making?

I'm dying to get started.
