I Want To Hold Your hand.

Just thought I would show you this little tag I made using WINTER POST from Stampin up, I just love this set for all year round as it has the postcard header, which is so useful.

been away for a few days to York my husband and son did  the York dungeon's, didn't fancy that so I had a whole day shopping, didn't find any craft shops, no doubt there were some just never fell across them.

so back to the slog and a bit of blog, going to check out what you have all been doing now! hugs Chris xx

Happy Birthday To You

Hello Bloggers, are you all having a good week, do hope so.

I have made this for my crafty friend Louise its her Birthday today, she loves everything Autumn especially the colours, loves trees and owls and buttons  so I knew that I had to include them somewhere, I think it is quite a fitting card for her.
 5 of us crafty girls have all met up for coffee this morning, we have had so many giggles and such a good time hope you enjoyed it Birthday girl, I certainly did.

Dont forget you still have time to go with the Sir Stampalot Challenge
Autumn Breezes a button and a bow.

I have used Sizzix embossing folder fall set. and coloured the raised embossing with distress inks it took a while but I think it was worth it. I have used SU linen thread to make the scalloped edge on the side.
the girl with doggy is Penny Johnson Looking Chic
and the words woodware.
the punch is SU.



Its a Beautiful Day

First of all don't forget to enter Our Sir Stampalot Challenge the theme is Autumn breezes, buttons and bow(s)

scroll down to see the amazing prize this month, or click on the link.

This is something my lovely ladies made on Monday night when I did an SU party, This is as near to a mans card as I get, I hate making Men's cards but really enjoyed making this, I think its suitable for male or female.

just feel there is a bit of a gap top left hand side but buttons where to big as this card only measures 3  1/2"  X  2  1/2"

any suggestions welcomed.

  The linen thread bow is just hiding the word friends which is stamped from Tiny tags and the pheasant and all the gorgeous leaves and grasses are from the stamp set called AUTUMN DAYS.  I have used the small jewelry tag to punch out the tag.
everything on the card is using SU products even down to the inks.

sorry I haven't been around so much still not feeling myself, and have got a poorly boy at home today, hence why I have managed to post something, cant do the hoovering or the dusting makes to much noise!!! Any excuse!!
