Cute Companions & Patchwork Polly

Hi there, hope you've had a good day, well it turned out lovely and sunny here in the West Midlands.

Thought I would just pop on with a reminder of a couple of shows on Create and Craft tomorrow.
The fantastic and charming Jayne Nestorenko will be on there at 8am with the Cute Companions and at 11am with Patchwork Polly.
I'm just gonna set the recorder so I don't forget as I would hate to miss Jayne's fabulous demos.

If you would like to see some cards using the CC's and PP then there are slides on my other blog and you can find a link at the top of the page.

Well I'm gonna get myself off to bed soon as I've been feeling tired all day and I'm hoping that if I get a good nights sleep I'll be full of beans tomorrow.

Thanks for stopping by,
Pat xx

Lucky old me

Hi, well today I received a beautiful tag from Lisa as part of the Tuesday Taggers birthday celebration challenge. Thank you Lisa.
Well I went over to her blog to thank her and saw that she was offering candy when she reached 100 followers and guess what it was at 99 so I just had to become the 100th didn't I. To be honest I would have become a follower anyway as Lisa is very talented and her blog is well worth a visit. Upshot is that Lisa is sending me some candy as well as making some available to all her other followers. So it's thanks again Lisa.

You may have noticed a couple of blinkies at the top right of this blog which link to the two brand new blogs belonging to Crafters Companion. So please feel free to give them a little click to find out what's going on and to hear about some fantastic candy Sara is offering.

That's it from me at the moment.
Catch you later,
Pat xx

Tuesday Taggers challenge

Texture

Hi, well we had a few problems with Mr Linky but it didn't stop so many of you joining in the last challenge and what fantastic creations you clever crafters came up with. Thanks for joining us.

Before we go on to this weeks challenge I would just like to let you know, if you don't already, that our fantastic teamie Michelle has a project featured in the latest edition of Craft Stamper magazine. Well we all know what a very talented lady Michelle is so it's no real suprise to see her in print in such a prestigious magazine. Well done Michelle.


Right, this weeks challenge has been chosen by another talented member of the TT DT Zoe. How lucky am I to be part of this team which such clever girls. Zoe would like you to use texture in your creation this week and as usual you can make whatever takes your fancy along as there's some texture somewhere. We are sponsored this week by Tanda Stamps so well worth entering this week to be in with a chance of their fantastic prize. Leave a link to them on your blog in order to qualify for the random draw.

I decided to use some Flower Soft which is something I don't very often use but must admit it does look very pretty. I haven't done any stamping at all on this one as I've used a printed decoupage by FS. To be honest I have been so busy this week sample making that I had to choose a quick option. I did enjoy doing this though, it's quite relaxing really as there's not too much to think about but you end up with a fabulous design. Well here it is, hope you like it.

Don't forget to check out the DT's fabulous creations and we look forward to seeing your take on the challenge.

Thanks for stopping by, I really do appreciate it.

Love, Pat xx
