Well what can I say another set of things I'm going to have to start collecting now. They have some fabulous images. I had a bit of a play this morning and came up with these 3 cards.

Wee Weezi challenge


I just about made it before the end of the month for Kim's doodle challenge, these are great fun as we get to do what we want with a drawing from Kim at c b. Weezi is such an adorable little dragon that I didn't really need to do much to make her look good.

This was sent to me by Wendy. I am so overwhelmed, 2 in one day. Thank you so much, unfortunately I don't have many blogger friends to pass it on to and I don't think I'd know how to. Thanks Wendy

A card for my grandson






I have made this card for my grandsons 3rd birthday. It is a downloadable image set from Cuddly Buddly. I was inspired by an ATC which I had seen on the cuddly buddly blog site, which was made by Paul. As soon as I saw his ATC I knew what I was going to make. so thanks Paul for the inspiration, and thanks to Kim at cuddly buddly. I haven't made a card yet that I haven't been happy with when using her stamps or graphics.

circle of friends


This was sent to me by a fellow blogger, I truly feel honoured to have been welcomed by such a warm community of people from the Cuddly Buddly forum. Thanks Sonia xx

new sugar nellie stamps




I have been playing with my new sugar nellie stamps, picking apples, flowers and sitting with bear, I have water coloured all 3 and added that touch of stickles that I just can't seem to do without. These are an absolute joy to work with very cute images and oh so girlie.

Stamps happen - Floating Softly


This is one of the very first stamps that I ever bought, I haven't used her for such a long time, I thought I would give her an outing. Finished off with Stickles, ( I don't know what I would do without it ) Lots of ribbon through eyelets and Prima flowers.

cuddly buddly robbie on tummy


Thought I would give Robbie a turn, today, I've layered him and used some frames. I didn't want him too fussy because he's for my 14 year old nephew.

Birthday Kyle


This is also my first go with Birthday Kyle from the new range by cuddly Buddly. Paper pieced and layered using Bazzill card stock and sassafrass papers.

Cuddly Buddly Birthday Emmy


My first go with Birthday Emmy from the new cuddly Buddly range. I think she looks very cute , and girlie. She has been backed onto the dowloadable paper range also from Cuddly Buddly.

Anniversary card for Pauline and Stephen


I actually made this card in February, but it is one of my favourites. A stamp 'n' stitch stamp kit from Elusive images. I like to feel as though I've made an effort when making cards for my sister as she is also a crafter.

Cuddly Buddly Emmy


I love this cuddly buddly stamp of Emmy. She just seems to shout paper piece me and do it with bright colours.

Sugar Nellie Hamish with Tractor


Sugar Nellie Hamish , A very cute stamp for all the little boys out there. I bought this stamp with my Grandson in mind because he just loves tractors , diggers and tools.

Magnolia Tilda sitting toppers

4 Magnoli Tilda Toppers all looking the same, but different in a variety of colours.

My very first Magnolia Tilda card


I discovered Magnolia, Sugar Nellie and cuddly Buddly stamps all around the same time. So many to choose from and all very cute. This was my very first Magnolia Tilda card.

penny black greetings


This is a birthday card I have made for a friend. A lovely Penny Black stamp, I stamped the flowers several times and made them into a 3d border.
