Cowgirl

Another card to showcase from the Victoria Case Stamp images, I didn’t think I would get a card made today as I’ve been cooing over my new great niece Amelia Grace, I hate to say it but I forgot to take my camera with me but I’ll take so pictures later to show you, she’s such a doll.

Cowgirl available here

She’s a bit cheeky don’t you think? Coloured with Copic markers and Prisma pencils and edged with Spellbinders edgabilities.

I sort of sensored the close up with my watermark ha,ha.

I also used a memorybox flourish die and twistered it to make a corner and added gems from Mei Flower to the flower centers then used my trusted Cuttlebug to emboss the base card with a sizzix embossing folder.

Fabulous Evening

We had a wonderful night out last night, Great company and great food. The boys hris and Russ could hardly get a word in edgeways for Sheena and myself and the chat just flowed, I love nights like that.

We all had so much to talk about and boy did we laugh, Sheena and I decided on the same meal of Lamb until we were asked what we would like then all Sheena could see in her mind were the wee bah lambs that she had just made into craft stamps ha ha, so pork it was for Sheena, if you haven't seen her latest rubber stamps you must go and check them out here, they are brilliant.

Nail Results

Ok nails are done, I have to say they are much better than they were but not as good as I would have liked.

As you can see from the pictures below I didn’t have much for them to work with. I struggle to grow my nails with the psoriasis and I would have like to have kept them totally natural but because I wasn’t totally happy with the result I painted them.

Ok thats it, we’re off out for our meal with Sheena and husband Russ and i’ll try to get some pictures if we come up for breath.

Especially for a Lady

Geesh it’s been hot, I managed to get my washing dried outside today, I love that. Tomorrow I’m going to treat myself and have my nails done as the sunny weather makes me want pretty nails. then tomorrow night I’ve a date with husband Chris and we are going out for dinner with Sheena Douglas and her lovely man Russ.

So onto my card, keeping in the theme of sunny days and thinking of afternoon teas I reached for the new Nitwit collection of Time for Tea and came up with this.

Isn’t it pretty? I used one of the spellbinders oval frame dies from the pierceabilities range, I played around with the time for tea collection in my graphics program to make the center piece.

I used the Mei Flower gems top and bottom of the card,I love the graduated sizes of them all on one card.

Finished it off with a pretty sheer lemon ribbon and a Prima stick pin.

Heat Wave–Cool Dude

If you’ve been watching the world weather or if you live in the UK you will know that we are having a very unusual March here.

The sun is splitting the trees and it’s hot hot hot. I sat in my car at lunch time and I baked, it didn’t take me long before I gave up and went back in doors. In fact I got a taxi drivers suntan all red down one side. I’m hoping it stays this way for a little while because it’s lovely to see so many people out and about.

our Jack got his first pair of sun glasses and he told me they were his “cool dude glasses” and who am I to argue?

I thought I should show you the proof in the pudding and let you decide.

Mother Duck

Mother duck said “quack, quack, quack, quack” and only five little ducks came back.

Mother Duck, a newly released digital stamp from Just Inklined 

Such a gorgeous image this one, I coloured it with copic markers and teamed it with Stampin Up papers a pretty ribbon and pearls from Mei Flower 

The eggs are a spellbinders die that I dotted and distressed.

Showgirl

I have another from Victoria Case to show you today.

I think this would make the perfect good luck card, You can still purchase some of Victoria’s digi’s from http://home.earthlink.net/~vtcase/id15.html in fact I have just bought Cowgirl and Cherry on Top

Isn’t she gorgeous?

Coloured with Copic Markers and Prisma Pencils

I used stickles glitter glue to accent her hat and trim. I also used Thickers letters (glass slipper) for the lucky word and a real casino chip to embellish and a beautiful ribbon to finish.
