Blog Candy Surprise..

I still have no idea what i'm doing... I want to give a small RAK type Candy just because i'm nearing my first 1,000 hits.. I will send to who ever where ever.. There is no picture as it is a surprise..
I just need you to leave me a message (so that I can click on your name to find you), no link needed however you can do a link and tell everyone if you want to spread the word...
My niece will read and pick the winner.. I'm not even giving you a date, it will be done as soon as I'm up to 1,000 or just after if it happens whilst i'm away between the 12th-17th August.
Today i'm doing a table top sale at a football 5 a side tournament my son has arranged..
I hope to be back later with something nice that I have made... Have great weekend...

Even Better...



After showing my friends the notebook I posted yesterday they have asked me to make them some for christmas stocking fillers..
I had started some more last night.. Yeah I was sat on my bed...Lol.. I know that there is always plenty of room on my bed...!
I added some beads ( I do love working with them) I also wake up with them stuck to me though at times....
I also need to make some for boys..
Does anyone know the best glue to use on the spines of books etc.. I have heard of Hodge Podge glue but never seen any..
Have you notice the Link to Pink Gems to win the candy.. Well my son has just called and had a moan (he must take after me) and after asking him to read an email sent to me by Marie my new best friend from PCP (Paper Craft Planet) to tell me how it is done, he read it and took over so it is a very basic post with a link that you must take a peek at as the stamps from there are fantastic. The snowman card I made last week, the stamp is from there.
Well I best add the photos...
Please leave some love and tell me what you think....

Fit as a Fiddle....





Thanks for coming back... I didn't think I would have time to do this before work but as I have here it is...
I was playing in bed last night (keep it clean Please)and made a note book. There is a stall on our local market selling plain notebooks with no cover on them and as they are very cheap (they are closing down)I got £5 worth and am going to have a look later to see if they have any left. I love a bargain...
The little cards I made a few days ago but the photos I took were not very good.
Some of the images are from Katharina a wonderful lady on PCP..Thanks Katharina..
I will be selling the notebooks at a car boot in a couple of weeks time.
Hope you like everything and leave me some much needed Love...!

Sorry laddies about not being around for a few days.
I'm suffering with a migraine at the moment and have lost my Mojo.
I always bounce back so please call back and have another Peek soooon.
Try on Friday I should have left something sweet.. I'm thinking of giving a little candy soon too as I am creeping up to my very first 1,000 hits..

It's Christmas...


Well It is a christmas card again for me today... You can blame Tabby (I follow her blog daily) and she had a card made with a cute snowman stamp from Pink Gem (here in the UK) last week and I had had my eye on these for a while... even down to putting them in my basket then at the last moment thought.. "No you are on a spending ban"...Lol.. as most of you know that lasted all of 2-3 hours ;o)
Well after seeing her card I just could not stop myself... My fingers have a mind of their own and if the laptop is on my knee well...! I have tried smacking my hand and even just sitting on them but it never works and I don't get much done that way...!
That's enough of my 'Rabbiting' for today...

My card.. I love the colour combo and the image.. Oh and the large snowflake I bought last year but never got around to using them.. A card is not a card any more unless I have added some sort of beading....or charm..
The thing I never seem to be satisfied with is the colour effect of the snow.. I think I just do a little too much..! Never mind I will try again..

Leave me some love and let me know what you think of it...

Friday Night..!



Well.. it's friday evening and there is nothing on the tv to watch so before all the light has gone I thought I would take a couple of photos to add to my blog... I'm not happy with the quality but never mind.. I think a new camera is on the very top of my christmas wish list.. What year I could get one I don't know, but I won't hold my breath...

The swimming Tilda is a little poorly, as when i came to ink her up she only had one full eye the other just a circle..I thought it was just my normal rubbish stamping effort so I tried again... No she looked a bit odd so I had a try at penning in the circle but she just did not look right. The pressure was not the same if you know what I mean... I have never had a problem with any of the magnolia stamps before and i do have a fair few, so I phoned the craft shop and she has told me to return it no problem and out of the 3 others she had left she had another one the same...
Poor old Tilda..... Anyway I just had to make a card with one of the stamped images I made... so I hope you can't see what I can see.... I could make a get well card with the bad image I have left...
The other card (another very Pink one)I'm not so sure about the embellishment and may change it..
Well i'm sory it is a short and sweet post but I will be back to "Rabbit" on a bit over the weekend...Have a great weekend and please call back and leave me some Love..
