Another Sassy Cheryls Challenge

Well I decided to enter another Sassy Cheryl's Challenge this week and it's all about "The Great Outdoors" and this is what I have come up with....

I have had great fun with the digital images I have bought from Sassy Cheryl's - they are soooo cute and versatile! I think I am hooked!

Sassy Cheryls Challenge Entry

I decided to join in Sassy Cheryl's weekly challenge this week. I have bought a few of her fab digital images over the last number of weeks and am hooked on them. Have a look at her site for yourself!

This week's challenge was based on a sketch and this is what I have come up with. I just have to figure out how to link it now!!!

Two nights in a row blogging that must be a record for me (by a long shot)! I have been buying some digital images - it's great - just go browsing and buy them and hey presto you can use them that same evening! No waiting on the postman! I had a few baby cards to do so I bought some of Elisa's Mami Doodles images and I will post up the cards when I have them completed. The images are great! Just hope the cards will do them justice! I have to say though that after Jackie's workshop on Sunday I have bought a few other things online. Just a few things though - that were obviously essential!! Like the bow maker and Tim Holtz paper, and some envelopes because I was running low, oh and a flower punch....For these I have to wait (im)patiently for the postman :( Right I'm signing off now!

It's been aaaaages since I updated!!!!

So here are a few of the things I have been up to..... I have been to Jackie's workshop on Sunday and made some fab cards - just have a look at Jackie's workshop blog to see the cards we made they are fab!! I can't wait for the next one - (May 1st in case you are interested).

I also made some wedding invitations for a work colleague's future daughter in law. I have some photos below. I really enjoyed making them but was glad to hand them over - I was terrified the kids would spill juice or get their mucky paws on them before they were handed over!!

Hi there again - I have entered another challenge - Elisa's Mami Doodles Challenge - this time it's about 'In The Garden' - using ribbon.

This is what I came up with

Hi there.

I decided to enter a Mami Doodles challenge. I don't normally have the time but have been off work all this week sick (eye infection). The laundry is all done, house clean and eyes a slight bit better so I set to work last night and came up with this...

Elisa has some lovely digital stamps. I must use the rest of this week to make some more cards using her images.

Thanks for looking.

My gosh it has been ages - I should update this blog more often. Well today is Easter Sunday and the kids had a ball - they went to see their nana and then off to the gym for a swim and then home to a roast dinner. And of course chocolate eggs thereafter!!!

Since I last posted I now have a new baby niece - Ava - she is a dote... I had her overnight a few weeks ago and it reminds me how much hard work babies are!!! But at the same time sooooo worth it.
I made some easter nests for the kids last night - thanks to Jan on the Craft Supplies forum - for the life of me I can't post a link to the photos - I must work on that one - I thought once they were in photo bucket then i could add them to blogs too.. I must get this sorted....Anyhow - here is a link to the discussion on Craft Supplies which gave me the idea. http://www.craftsupplies.ie/shop/chat/viewtopic.php?t=21443

I have been to the last two of Jackie Mooney's card making work shops http://jackiesworkshops.blogspot.com/ and made some amazing cards. I will take some photos of recent cards and post them up over the next day or too.

I am working on some albums/booklets for our sixth class kids to remind them of their time in school. I have until June to get them sorted but thought I would start them when I had some time over Easter. Again, I will get some photos sorted soon. Thats all for now...
