Snow Shovel to the ready

I can feel the chill in the air already, I’ll be digging out the higher tog quilt by the weekend much to Chris’s dismay.

This little one has it under wraps and is all ready for the winter months.

Snow Shovel from Mo’s Digital Pencil 

I used a beautiful silk ribbon, Spellbinders oval die, some pretty papers, gems from Mei Flower and La La land tree die.

Before I finish I have a funny story about Grandson Jacks day at school, he was chattering away to his Mam.

Jack- 'Mam- the teacher said God today...
His Mam- 'were you learning about Him?'
Jack- 'no- and she said in the name of the Father, the Son and the mouldy wizard!'

Ermm I think that should be “Holy Spirit” Jack.

Update

It wasn’t until I got told off by my Mam on Sunday that I realised that I hadn’t gave you an update.

Time just seams to fly by doesn’t it?

So here is the little fella, our Jack on his first day at full time school.

Things have changed so much since mine were little, Jacks Mam was allowed to stay for lunch one day which I think was wonderful, he even got a star award in his first week.

His Grandad said we need to hope that he will grow into that PE kit sharpish otherwise we may have our first taste of bullying on our hands.

See Ya

That special moment when they pass their driving test and we lose all rights to our car and nerves ha ha!

See Ya from Mo’s Digital Pencil perfect for that Congratulations card.

Coloured with Copic markers and chalk pencils and teamed with First Edition designer papers, a pretty green ribbon and some little pearls.

Sentiment from TLC sentiments.

Just look at that figure (sigh)

Just Peachy

Sharing something that is just peachy on this dank wet windy day in the UK.

Elke and bear from Mo’s digital Pencil 

Coloured with Copic Markers and Chalk pencils and then shaded around the image with Pan Pastels.

Papers used are from Graphic 45 and ribbon from Papertrey Ink

I hope wherever you are today you have a little bit of sunshine.

Sunset

I nearly forgot to show this to you, we were heading to my Mams last Sunday and the sky was so beautiful we just had to stop the car and take a photograph, unfortunately I only had my phone with me so I had to use the camera from that but I think it captured it well enough to let you see it.

You can even see the rays that the sun was throwing out.

Today I’m off to the hairdressers for a much needed cut and colour. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend.

Lets get down with the kids and make a snowman card that they can relate to, we see so many snowmen cards at Christmastime but not many around like this one.

This is a Jolly Little Ole Santa

Treading Water Snorkel Boy

Do you ever have one of those days where you feel like you have been treading water all day? I do and today was one of them, 2 steps forward and 3 steps back, thankfully it all came together in the end.

Todays card is made with Snorkel Boy from Mo’s Digital Pencil 

Coloured with Copic alcohol markers and Chalk pencils, I also used a Cuttlebug embossing folder, German glass glitter patterned paper and some scrapbook letters.

Just Inklined to Blog Hop–Blingy Christmas

Today is blog hop day and our super talented Design Team have some amazing projects to show you.

To make the hop more fun, there are 2 hidden spot prizes along the way, chosen from those that leave comments on the blogs.

This months theme is "A Blingy Christmas" hosted by Lori which is where the blog hop starts.

I have 2 cards for you today as I just couldn’t stop at one, I love the pencil lined images and my first card is using A Letter from Santa Digital Stamp.

I kept my card simple using glitter card to mat and layer and German Glass glitter around the edges of the white card and on top of the die-cut holly spray.

Coloured with Copic Markers and Chalk pencils.

My next card is made in the same way but using Goose and Gander for the image.

Both cards were finished with pearls and a pretty ribbon.

If you missed the beginning of the hop I’ve listed all of the DT taking part underneath.
