50th Anniversary

Morning peeps, hope you're all having a good week so far especially those of you with children on half-term.

The weather has been pretty lousy here, just typical for the school hols...bet we'll have a heatwave next week when they're back in school!

I'm sharing a 50th Anniversary card today and I absolutely love these adorable little bears, I thought they were perfect for the occasion. The design papers are probably my all time fav papers and I've teamed them with some kraft coloured card stock!

Passion for Promarkers #229...Clean & Simple

Good morning me lovelies, it's been another wet start to the week here and if this rain carry's on much longer I'm going to end up with webbed feet and waterlogged wellies...we really want some warmer, dryer weather now as it's no fun getting drenched everytime you set foot outside the front door!

We're back from our Christmas break over at Passion for Promarkers and our first challenge for 2014 is all about CLEAN AND SIMPLE designs! There's some fab inspiration from the design team and we are sponsored by Sassy Studio Designs with a prize of 4 digi stamps to the winner.

Cupcake Craft Challenge 214...Two's Company

Good morning gang,

I feel like a Boomtown Rat this morning...I Don't Like Monday's...especially when they are so dark and cold. The only thing that cheers me up on a Monday is that we have a brand new shiny challenge to play with over at Cupcake.

This weeks challenge has been chosen by the lovely Shelly and it's TWO's COMPANY! All you have to do is make sure that your image has two characters on it...two people or a person and a pet or possibly two bears (like me).

We have two fab sponsors this week...
