Truly Scrumptious – Challenge 37

At last my card is ready for this weeks Truly Scrumptious Challenge. This craft room business is doing my head in – I can’t find a bloomin’ thing and I’m roaming between two rooms looking in this box and that box – Grrrr!!

Anyway the sketch this week is from little old me and we are sponsored by Stamp and Create so you could win this fabulous prize.

…. and that’s not all :

My photos are turning out crap too!!

Can’t get used to the different placement and light in this house yet!!

So hope you can join us this week.

Have just seen a distressing trailer for a programme on TV tonight called It Shouldn’t Happen at A Vets, horrendous! Don’t think I can even bring myself to watch it. Those poor pets, bet there will be some repercussions after it airs tonight.

Craft Room Update

Evening! Well I have been packing up the old craft stuff yet again. My cousin is coming to make a start on the crafty space tomorrow so it’s all been moved into the spare room. Still got some furniture to move. I can’t wait to get it organised although still have to look out for storage so any ideas please let me know! I did get some great plastic storage stacks on wheels from Lidls at a really great price.

So no cardage from me over the next week or so, mind you there hasn’t been much of late anyway!!!

I’ve just been driving myself mad trying to find stuff, moving paper and boxes around searching for this and that.

Anyway peeps off to watch The World Cup!

Hopefully I will be back with a card from the new Craft Room soon!!! LOl

Craft Barn Cards, Competition and Some Pictures!

Long Post Alert!!!

Afternoon from a wet and windy Scotland, boy has the weather changed. Just popping on quickly in between the Tennis – Vamos Rafa!!!! LOL

Here are a couple of cards using my new DT pack from The Craft Barn.

I used this cute Stamping Bella Stamp called “Chloe the Coffee Mug Girl”, Sandy has an amazing range of Stamping Bellas available HERE.

I decoupaged the mug and coloured her with Pro Markers.

Added some glitter hearts and a rub on. In the corner I used these Personal Impressions Flourishes 1 also available at The Craft Barn HERE.

These stamps are just the cutest they are by Personal Impressions from their Nitwit Collection called Noah’s Ark, wonderful to colour.

 

I also used my new best friends Martha Stewart Glitters in Bubble Gum, they are just gorgeous. I sprinkled some around the Noah’s Ark lettering but you can’t see it so good in the picture but it IS lovely and sparkly. I finished off with BAby Rub Ons and some pink pearls.

If you haven’t visited the Craft BArn do hop over and check it out, they stock some great stuff.

Now on to the Craft Barn Blog Competition. Fancy winning a £30 Goody Bag then all you have to do is make a shaped card.

The competition runs until midnight on July 15th.

Well I thought I’d share some Garden Photos, it’s great to finally have one after years of living in a flat and I have really enjoyed getting down and dirty in the mud!!!LOL. My mum is a green finger lady so has helped me a lot with what to buy as regards to plants and shrubs.

I also have some feathered friends but they are eating me out of house and home. They have gone through 8 fat balls and a suet slab in a day and a half. There have been fights, pecking and feathers flying!! What HAVE I started!! It’s beginning to look like a scene from Alfred Hitchcocks The Birds!!! LOL
