Christmas Gift Idea
Today I wanted to share a gift idea for you, not to give away but a gift for yourself, my family are always asking me what I’d like for Christmas and 9 times out of 10 it will be a crafty idea. I just thought this would be such a wonderful gift idea for you.
Letraset had 4 limited edition Promarker sets this year.
Wouldn't it be fabulous to receive all 4 sets in a handy pop up case?
Beautifully boxed, packed and sitting under the tree waiting for you for Christmas day.
24 of the most gorgeous colours
Here are some cards that I made using the sets.
Spring.

Two Peas in a Pod
We are on the last leg of having Jack stay with us as his Mam and Dad come back today.
I have to say Jacks vocabulary is amazing, isn't it amazing how not only do the have to remember each word but they also have to know in which way to use that word, yet here he is little rent a gob spurting out words in the right format and words that you wouldn't expect a three year old to know.
He is at that age that whatever Granda is doing he has to do and here he is proving my theory.
They were watching you've been framed a personal favourite of them both.
So now to prepare the Sunday roast ready for his Mam and Dad getting here.

Adventure Guy
I think this Adventure Guy by Mo’s Digital Pencil is so lovely that it needs very little doing with it to make a card. So clean and simple was the key for this one.
Coloured with Copic and Prisma Pencils and embellished with fishtail tabs, twine and a button.
Sleep Over
We have Jack staying over this weekend while his Mam and Dad have a break at the Slimming World Oscars in Birmingham.
He is staying in his Auntie Natalie's bed or as it is better known “the marshmallow bed” according to his mam and Dad he awakes around 06:30 bright eyed and bushy tailed.
We had to buy him a lamp as he likes a light on to go to sleep.
He is lost in the big marshmallow bed but it worked as in no time at all he was like this, shhhhhh!
This morning he lay in and we had to shout him at 08:00am

Down The lane
The last showing from the La Pashe and Just Inklined CD’s sample cards that I made on Create and Craft TV.
This one I love, it is nostalgic and makes you want to live here.
The decoupage for this one is really chunky yet so effective.
I have Jack staying with us all weekend, we were all set to take him to diggerland then found out it was closed for winter.
I feel a baking session coming on.

La Pashe and Just Inklined Cards - Tuesday
I've so enjoyed my shows at Create and Craft and loved the emails you have been sending through, I just can't get to show you the full worth of the cd-rooms during the time slots but believe me when I say the amount that is on these cd's is pronominal.
These are a couple of the cards made today.
The first is from The Just Inklined cd
This one is a mix and match of backgrounds and decoupage sheets from the La Pashe cd.
And open doors.
Don't let this set of CDs slip away from you it is amazing value.
I also met up with Phill in the green room at Create and Craft and we had a good old chin wag, lovely guy.
We got on like a house on fire.
I also want to remember a dear friend today.
Also this week marks the first memorial of my beautiful friend Katie Renz, always remembered in my heart. Spare a moment to think of her dear family.

Lady Elizabeth
I’m back at Create and Craft today Tuesday at 12noon and 5pm and hope you tune in to watch, if you do please email in, its so nice to get those emails.
I thought I'd leave you with Elizabeth from Just Inklined and I think you’ll agree she is quite the lady, coloured with Letraset Promarkers, Flexmarkers and prisma pencils.
Silk Ribbon from Ribbon Carousel, papers from Stampin Up and scalloped edge made with a Martha Stewart punch.
I'll try to get more cards posted from the shows today as soon as I can.
