Back to basics

Hi everyone, just a note to remind you that me shows for La Pashe are tomorrow, I'm at Peterborough now sitting and relaxing before tomorrow.
I have a post set for the morning with peeks of what I will be demoing and times and links. I also have a freebie which will come in handy for those that buy the fabulous new decoupage sheets, so be sure to come back and pick it up. Ohh you might want to tape the shows too for some ideas.

If you remember I had my nails done a little while back and to be honest I was less than pleased with the result, I ended up having the false tips removed and having gel nails added to cover up the dreadful mess, my nails are still recovering so I have had them cut back as short as possible and had a product called CND Shellac over the top of them to make them look presentable.
So today a did a little bidding and won a starter kit of the product.

Life in the Old Dog–Lazy Mutt

Aren’t these fabulous? Lazy Mutt by Mo’s Digital Pencil I think any animal lover would love these.

I saw a card by Jane which had two of these on and fell in love with it so I knew I’d be giving them a whirl. If you are new to colouring and want something easy to colour then this is the set for you, the card was made very quickly in between my prepping for shows.

I just love the simplicity of it. Coloured with Copic markers.

I Scream!

How on earth can a girl try to make the right choices in healthy eating when her two favourite boys are doing this?

ice_cream

I have been really sensible for the last two weeks and Chris is trying too, but he does keep caving in and needing something sweet, today my Mam called in and she mentioned that she couldn’t stay as she had Ice-cream in the car, of course Jack wanted one and so did Chris.

I give in.

A little Word Art–Freebies

I had an email the other day from a lovely lady asking about round sentiments, I have to be honest when saying it’s not something I think about very often, one reason being that it isn’t very often I add a sentiment and the other being that if I want one I just go ahead and make one, Sometimes we forget that what comes as the normal for one person isn’t or doesn’t come natural to the other.

So here is three that you can use, please follow my terms of use do not share and send people to here if anyone asks you for them.
