Where is time going too!! .... anyhow it's 'Take Your Pick' this week and there are a few options you can choose from.. There's a sketch, colour, Technique and Product... I have gone with technique which is to make a tag or include a tag... This is my first attempt with grunge paste, stencils and paints... I loved it, but messed up a hell of a lot lol!!.. this isn't brilliant, and I would have liked to have had another attempt but time isn't on my side at the moment! My first attempt at stamping straight on to the paint was a disaster, I didn't press hard enough and I had put quiet a lot of time into colouring etc.. but the magical thing about paint is, I was able to paint over it and stamp the sentiment again!!.. also what I didn't realize was that I had used the stencil back to front lol!! but I don't think it looks too bad does it!...<br />

I noticed my ribbon was fraying, so I tided it up a little although I think I liked it looking a bit rough! It also started out being cream coloured.. I dyed it with Tim Holtz distress inks to make it match better with my paint, I do suggest you use gloves for this as it took a couple of days for the dye on my hands to disappear lol!!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Just wanted to say also that I won't be around for a few weeks, as my son and family are coming from Germany for two weeks. We are so looking forward to seeing them all as Christmas was the last time we saw them, I can't believe that our little granddaughter Annelie is almost a year old and Liam is 8 Then David and I want to take a couple of weeks for ourselves, we need some time out to catch up with ourselves, if you know what I mean lol!! We always seem to be rushing all the time and not really achieving what we want, so we are both getting stressed lol!! My Mum isn't in the best of health at the minute either. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I would just like to say a big 'Thank You' to all you lovely ladies that leave me beautiful comments, I really appreciate the time you take to come and visit, as I know life can be pretty hectic at times for all of us.. you all take care... see you in a few weeks xx</div>

It's time for another challenge over at <b><a href="http://papertakeweekly.blogspot.co.uk/">'Papertake Weekly'</a></b> and this week it is 'Build it Up'.. which means no flat cards we need to see layers please....

I cased one of my teamies ideas with the little tags, hope you don't mind <a href="http://handcraftedespeciallyforyou.blogspot.co.uk/">Debs</a>... Do you like my new die I got from the show, it's the little swirls that are on my flower arrangement.. it's a Noor Design from Joy Crafts.. it has a lovely oval frame with it too, can't wait to use it!

I always seem to be rushing these days, I wish the roundabout would slow down a little so I could enjoy what I'm doing lol!! I did have a lovely week-end though as I managed to go to the Summer Crafting show at Donny.. I was a little disappointed as some of my favourite crafty shops weren't there and I didn't see any demonstrations either ... (Not what I wanted to see anyway).. I met up with my friend <a href="http://cardandcake.blogspot.co.uk/">Carole </a>and we had a really good catch up lol!! Needed more talk time though lol!! I also met Dawny she was on the tonic stall demonstrating, it was so nice to see her and have a little catch up with her too!... Then on Sunday Debs popped up so it was a great finish to a great week-end!!....<br />
Not a lot of time for crafting though, I only just managed to make this card by the skin of my teeth lol!!... hope you like it.. it's a 'Wobble Card' I have never made one before, but it was so simple to make... just a large circle folded in half and the rest is self explanatory, I have used lots of red stickles and glitter so waiting for everything to dry was quiet a mission as I wanted to put it together quickly lol!! .... I'm defiantly going to make more of these, they are soooo cute!<br />
<br />
The challenge over at '<b><a href="http://papertakeweekly.blogspot.co.uk/">Papertake Weekly</a>'</b> is '<b>Anything but square</b>'... so I decided to make another Christmas card.. that's two now, aren't I good lol!!<br />

It's been another hectic one for me, but we get through it eventually don't we!... It's a lovely challenge over at 'Papertake Weekly' this week called 'Oh So Pretty' and we all love pretty cards don't we lol!! I've chosen this image from one of LOTV's art pads and glittered it up a little... I wasn't very impressed with what I did at first and thought it didn't look quiet right... something missing etc lol!!<br />

I'm a little late with my post this week, sorry:).... Finding it hard to fit everything in at the moment. I have had a couple of appointments to take Mum too and it's surprising how the whole day seems to disappear! We are away this week-end too and David has another appointment for his hips on Tuesday, so don't know whether I will have a card for next week... will try my best:) xx </div>

Hope you all had a great week. I went to the Stamp Magic show at Doncaster Dome on Sunday, it was hosted by Paula from 'Which Craft' and what a fabulous show it was.. I thoroughly enjoyed myself. I wasn't going to go as my daughter Debs couldn't make it, I was a bit dubious about going on my own but off I went and had a lovely time... Watched a few demonstrations on Multi Media, painting and inking.... really learnt a lot!.. the girls were all so helpful and full of inspiration and encouragement. I'm really eager to try Multi Media so bought some paints and grunge paste and some really lovely stamps which I will share over the coming weeks.. I'm really eager to give this new technique a try, I just can't wait to get into my craft room now lol!!<br />
<br />
As it's Tuesday again it's time for another challenge over at <b><a href="http://papertakeweekly.blogspot.co.uk/">'Paper Take Weekly'</a> </b>and this week it's to make something for the boys... It can be a Fathers day card or simply just a card for a man or boy, or even a baby card.... I've been playing with my inks and stamps this week and this is what I did... I stamped my image on a plain sheet of card then started to colour all around it with my inks I stamped some extra images on there too, to create a back drop for the image.... I stamped a separate image, coloured it in and cut it out and then decoupaged it... I quiet like the result and it's something different for me. I ruffed all the edges and inked the cogs and corners and the jute mesh ribbon was originally bright pink lol!! I dyed it with several different colours of distress inks, quiet like the way it turned out.. I went around all the edges with wax gilt to give it a metal look, it does look a lot nicer in real life, the backing paper is more of a green colour...<br />

David and I took Mum with us to a Land Rover show at the week-end, she's always loved to come with us but it was quiet a struggle for her to get around even with the little walker we bought her. We had a lovely picnic at lunch time, then Mum and I sat in the sunshine while David went and had another look around on his own. I feel quiet sad as she's always loved the shows but it's a bit too much for her now.. but we had a lovely day all the same and the weather was kind to us too!<br />
<br />
Well it's time for another challenge over at '<a href="http://papertakeweekly.blogspot.co.uk/">Papertake Weekly</a>' and this week you have a lovely variety of options to choose from, or you can incorporate all of them if you like....

I'v made quiet a simple card and it's for my Mum who is 88 yrs young today!! she doesn't see very well as she has AMD, so I haven't made anything too fussy. The hearts are in my paper and image also I've added 3 little hearts under the word MUM... the ribbon looks lovely as it has sparkly bits along both edges which you can't really see in the photos... I also stickled the lovely roses and butterflies to make them sparkle too!<br />

It's been beautiful the last few days here in Yorkshire, a little nippy at times but lovely in the sun!... sorry I haven't been able to get round for a visit, but this week has been a bit manic, with appointments for Mum, and extra hours at work...<br />
Anyway up and onward lol!!.... It's Tuesday today, so time for another challenge over at <a href="http://papertakeweekly.blogspot.co.uk/">Papertake Weekly</a>, and this week Dawny would love anything to do with the garden... it could be flowers, or a garden based image or what ever your interpretation of 'In the Garden' means to you.... I have chosen butterflies and flowers... and of course I would love to see this little fairy in my garden somewhere too lol!!<br />

I used the art pads from <a href="http://www.liliofthevalley.co.uk/acatalog/Art-Pad---Set-25---Magical-Fairies.html">LOTV</a> and decoupaged the butterflies and little fairy:).. my cutting out isn't too brilliant but I don't think it looks too bad! I tried to take a photo of the little fairies wings as they look lovely, I glittered them all up the same as her little skirt, but it doesn't show up too well, but I think you can get the idea... the lovely papers were a freebie with a magazine and matched the pre-coloured image perfectly... the gorgeous flowers and ribbon are from the <a href="http://www.ribbongirl.co.uk/catalog/">Ribbon Girl</a>, the sentiment is from LOTV, I use these all the time, love them!..<br />

David's hips are a little better, the pain doesn't seem to be as intense as it was before the injection, and he's having physio now as well!... we are waiting now for another appointment to have another injection in to his other hip, so fingers crossed!!..<br />
<br />
Well it's Tuesday and time for another challenge over at '<a href="http://papertakeweekly.blogspot.co.uk/">Papertake Weekly</a>'... and this week it's 'Anything Goes' with the option of 'No Pattern Paper'... I can't take any credit for the card I've made this week as the layout I found on the internet or a magazine, but this is my take on it, can't remember exactly where I saw it now sorry!!..<br />

I'm struggling a bit at the moment with my weight!!... it's been six weeks now that I've been trying to loose a few pounds but the chocolate bar and cake always wins at the moment!! I now weigh 1 kilo heavier than when I started.... This week I'm determined not to have any chocolate or cake, and I really must do more exercise, will let you know how I go on next week, it doesn't help either that Mr. Mojo has packed his bags and go on annual leave lol!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

I think Summer isn't too far away!... As you know from last week David went for his injection, all went well for a few days but sadly it seems to be wearing off. He was over the moon for a couple of days then, all of a sudden his leg gave way and he has started with the pain again.. not as severely but it does seem to be creeping up again... he will give it a little longer and then I think it's back to the specialist....<br />
<br />

The week-end was a bit cool here in Yorkshire, and we had a flash of hailstone too!... but lovely all the same lol!!<br />
Being Tuesday it's time for another challenge over at <b>'<a href="http://papertakeweekly.blogspot.co.uk/">Papertake Weely</a>' </b>and this week Dawny would like the main focus of the card to be Words... I've made a card from a beautiful stamp from a company called 'Visible Image' called 'Create with your Soul'.. I bought this last year and haven't had the opportunity to stamp it up.. so here goes! I wanted to try and make a vintage style card but it's turned out a bit steam punk!! I really enjoyed messing with all the inks, but would do a few things differently next time... I die cut the clock in craft card, then painted it with gesso, then added all different colours of Tim Holtz distress inks, it was a lot darker yesterday and the colours were better, so next time I think I will leave it to dry completely before assembling as I think it could have done with more colour on it, it looked a bit whitish the following morning!.. I also bought some fabulous wax gilt last week-end and I've put it on everything lol!! it does give a lovely finish!! <br />

Do you like my little bunnie, this was a free stamp on a magazine, isn't he cute!! The little egg stamp for the tag I bought years ago, and I'm ashamed to say this is it's first inking lol!!

I have managed to make a card for my grandsons 7th Birthday... just don't know where the time has gone since he was first born... he is really into football at the moment so thought this cute image from LOTV fitted the bill perfectly.<br />
<br />
Also it's another great challenge over at <b><a href="http://papertakeweekly.blogspot.co.uk/">Papertake Weekly</a> </b>The challenge this week is<a href="http://papertakeweekly.blogspot.co.uk/"> </a><b><a href="http://papertakeweekly.blogspot.co.uk/">Anything Goes</a> </b>with an option of using flowers if you like... No flowers from me this week though, although I did think about adding a few daisies in the grass, then thought better of it lol!!<br />

The image is called Super Striker and I have coloured him with my inktense pencils, I finally had a chance to use this lovely die from MFT called chicken wire. I think it makes a fabulous net with a little cheese cloth behind it. I decoupaged the football to make it stand out a little more too but you can't really see it in the photo's. I used the pieces from the chicken wire die to mount Liam's name on, they were just the right size!</div>

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 <a href="http://papertakeweekly.blogspot.co.uk/">Papertake Weekly</a> 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 <a href="http://buttonsforbrains.blogspot.co.uk/">Liz's </a>blog, I think they will be so useful!!<br />

Do You think we will have a white Christmas!! Well it's Tuesday and time for another challenge over at <a href="http://papertakeweekly.blogspot.co.uk/"><b>Papertake Weekly</b></a>.. we had a fabulous response last week well over 300 entries!!! Our challenge for this week is 'Paper Play'... Dawny would love to see you make your own flowers, borders, embellishments etc from paper, that's what a lot of us do any way, so nice and easy... you can also add some ribbon if you fancy:).... I have used this super cute image from Karen's Doodles called 'Christmas Tree Guy'... he is such a happy chappy and so easy to colour, I used my Inktense Pencils, the paper wasn't the best to use for these pencils but it doesn't look too bad does it! I glittered it all up with Glamour Dust and added gold glitter to his little bells on his shoes... on the sentiment I added Gesso to add a bit of texture...<br />

Santa's on his way lol!! I think I only realized that yesterday when the calender went forward and there, with a red ring around it, was the date when my lovely family from Germany arrive!! eek!! it's only three weeks away and still so much to do lol!! We went away for the week-end to Debs and had such a relaxing time, went to the Christmas Vintage Fair at Worcester, and had mulled wine, and roasted chestnuts mmmm!!! and the weather was very kind to us too!!<br />
<br />
Anyway onto my card for <b><a href="http://papertakeweekly.blogspot.co.uk/">'Papertake Weekly</a>'</b>... which is 'Anything Goes' with the option of making a Christmas gift or decoration. I haven't had much time this week for myself, so I would like to share this card I made for a special lady who I met whilst shopping for crafty goodies, and we have become quiet good friends, you can see her fabulous blog <a href="http://cardandcake.blogspot.co.uk/">here</a>.<br />

The gorgeous paper is from a pad by Craftwork Cards called 'Time Flies' and the sentiment is a LOTV <a href="http://www.liliofthevalley.co.uk/acatalog/Verses_and_Quotes.html">Verses and Quotes</a> stamp (Set 61) which I stamped straight onto the paper, no colouring required lol!.. I added black pearls and ribbon and a lovely butterfly from Magnolia it also has black pearls on but doesn't show on the photo's and a filigree corner from La La Land.<br />
Isn't this little tag gorgeous... I won a lovely prize from <a href="http://www.bugaboostamps.com/">Bugaboo digi stamps</a> and this is one of the images I chose. ( I wouldn't of known if it wasn't for Carole... she told me to check my challenges:).. I coloured the little butterflies with my inktense pencils to match the papers...<br />
