Messing about in boats

Its Tuesday and that means its time for our next Tuesday Taggers challenge.  This week the theme has been chosen by our very own Sally and she would like us to include water, sea and or boats in whatever form you would like. Plenty of scope there then I think you'll agree, so hopefully we will get a bumper selection of entries again this week.  We all really appreciate all the fantastic bloggers who join us for our challenge and what a fantastically talented lot you all are.  If you should need any inspiration pop please pop over to the TT challenge blog because my fellow teamies have come up with some sensational ideas.

Well here is my little number.

I decided to go with that real cutie Popcorn the bear and his friends available from Crafters Companion. The papers and the image are all from the CD so no stamping for me this week on this one. The sentiment is Craftwork Cards and the ribbon from my stash.


Well that's about it from me today and I'm hoping I will have a better day today than I did yesterday. Spent half of it at the hospital because when the carers were pushing John from the wet room to the bedroom they caught his toe and sliced the top of it. He didn't feel a thing as he has no feeling in his legs and feet due to the MS but boy was there plenty of blood on the brand new carpet!! Managed to get it out, oh and John's OK too LOL!
Have a good day,


Love, Pat xx

Sunshine!

Good morning one and all.  It's been a week since my last post as I've been struggling to get back into the crafting swing since my little holiday.  Anyway I think I'm getting there and have managed to get four cards done today.
Well it's Tuesday Taggers challenge time again and this week our mega talented Michelle has asked us to use Sunshine as the theme.  I had just the perfect stamp to use from the Crafter's Companion SWALK collection so here is my card, hope you like it.

I've coloured this oh so cute image with distress inks
The papers are by Wild Rose Studio, Spring Fling.
I've used an MS around the page punch.
The flower and lace are from my stash.


Hope you will pop over to the TT challenge blog  to check out my fellow teamies creations as they are fabulous and I'm sure you will be inspired to join us this week. Don't forget it doesn't have to be a card, whatever takes your fancy.

Have a good day,

Hugs, Pat xx

Back to reality

Hi there dear friends.  If you've been wondering where I've been for the last week or so, I've been on holiday in Felpham West Sussex and we had a wonderful time.  I really didn't want to come back but all good things have to come to an end.  The house we rented was right on the sea front with fabulous sea views, just wonderful to wake up to each morning.  We had some lovely days out and even managed to get to visit the brand new Glitterpot shop and get some lovely goodies. 
Now I'm back to reality and all that goes with it. I decided that I should slow down a bit but I can't see it happening as I've got a list as long as my arm to get done this week.  I was involved in a car accident (no-one hurt) before we went away so I've got that to get sorted and I wont bore you with the rest.  So if I'm not around for a while you'll know why.

Tuesday Taggers challenge

Lots of lovely black.

Now onto the Tuesday Taggers challenge which has been chosen this week by our lovely Lyn and she wants us to use lots of lovely black.
Well here is my card.

I couldn't resist adding some colour to the mix.
The Gorjuss Girl is coloured with Copics.
The paper has a lovely silky finish and I coloured  the flowers with copics.
The ribbon is from my stash.




I do hope you'll pop over to the TT challenge blog to check out the DT creations which are fabulous and hopefully you'll be inspired to join us this week.
Bye for now,
Hugs, Pat xx
