Something New

Good morning everyone, I think this year is going to fly just as quickly as the last one did lol!!. here we are almost half way through January!! I still have lots of things going on at home at the moment, but did manage to get my card ready for this weeks Papertake Weekly challenge, which is 'Something New'.. Make something to celebrate something new ie new house, new year, new baby etc or do a new technique you have never done before or use something new, I have gone with something new and they are these gorgeous papers by Simple Stories called SNAP.. A present from secret Santa (Me lol!!)

I must apologise for my lack of visits to everyone, haven't had a great deal of time this last month or so, I have my hubby home at the moment so everything is out of routine.  Have a lovely week everyone and will try and get round for a visit soon!!

You all take care,

Love and Hugs,

Good morning everyone, and a very 'Happy New Year' to you all... What a fabulous Christmas and New Year David and I have had... we had all our family here for Christmas and then New Year we took my Mum with us down to Deborah's in Worcester and we had a such a lovely time!! but all good things come to an end lol!! and it's time to get back into the swing of things! ... so being Tuesday it's time for a new challenge over at Papertake Weekly and seeing it's the beginning of the month it's Anything Goes with the option of making a 'Thank You' card or gift.... I think I've slipped up a bit with this card as I should of printed the image onto watercolour paper or cream card as it doesn't look quiet right to me... also maybe the image could of been a bit bigger too!! but no time to create another one... I do love this image it's one I won from Bugaboo last year, and I think it will get used a lot.... The lovely vertical dies Santa sent me lol!! I loved these when I saw them on Liz's blog, I think they will be so useful!!

Do hope you have time to join us this week, I was itching to get back to my craft room, and when I started my card I couldn't find anything as I had to empty it so we could use it as a bedroom, so need to do some sorting this week lol!! 

Have a lovely week and take care...

Love and Hugs,
