Watercolor Wings

I'm kind of glad it's still a bit wet and cold today - means I can happily be in my craft room without feeling guilty that I should be out in the garden or enjoying the fine weather! Hopefully though we'll be in for some nice weather soon. Today I thought I'd play along with the TGIF Challenge - it's my first time but I love challenges so here goes! The Watercolor Wings stamp set is super cute - I haven't had much time to play with it but as I'm a fan of butterflies it's sure to become a favourite. Enjoy the rest of your weekend - Angela

Mojo Monday

Hi and thanks for stopping by! I'm up for another challenge this week - Mojo Monday. A friend asked me to make a baby card so it was a great opportunity to use this layout.    The Sweet Li'l Things DSP is one of my favourites and Zoo Babies is a great stamp set - they go well together. Boxes, Boxes and More Boxes On another subject altogether - this pile of boxes met me at the front door this morning - I'm one happy stamper today!   It's wet and miserable here today so guilt-free inside day!

Getting in the Festive Spirit!

The Paper Players have put up another fun challenge and I thought I'd make a Christmas card to get me in the swing of things for my upcoming Holiday Catalogue Launch on Saturday 12 September.     I used the Season of Cheer DSP which has lots of fresh colours in it and I've silver embossed the snowflake element to tie it in with the silver cording trim I used. The Happy Christmas is from the Oh, What Fun stamp set.

Oh, What Fun

I've been having a little play with this stamp set and came up with these cards. This stamp set co-ordinates with the Oh, What Fun Tag Project Kit.        I'm looking forward to our first Christmas in our re-built home so I'd like to get super organised - this only occurs every second year - and it's that year!

The Beach

Yay it's nearly Summer ... well a few months away but already the days are longer and the weather warmer! The Paper Players challenge this week is the beach. The octopus from the Sea Street stamp set is the closet thing I have to the beach! If you are wondering where the Night of Navy striped paper came from - I made it by drawing vertical lines on a piece of Whisper White cardstock - a little bit of kiwi ingenuity! Have a lovely weekend - Angela

Perpetual Birthday Calendar Project Kit

Hopefully the recipient of this gift isn't looking at my blog!  This project was reasonably quick and easy to put together and is a great gift. I'm thinking about all the people I could make one for! Sorry the photos aren't that great - I used my phone - I really must get back to using my camera - but you get the idea! Happy Stampin'
