Brrrr its chilly today... But here is a bright spark!

Today has been terribly cold here in Victoria.. I suspect perhaps snow somewhere!
I have had a busy day and just realised its the 19th. Which is my extra card day for Bizzy Bec's store..
I know I've had my head else where - as we get organised for my first trip overseas to the USA in three weeks.
I've just had fun playing with this new Gorjuss stamp set called scribble and card kit #3.. I really love these colours together. and of course shes coulored in with copics.


Well I hope you have a great day and even better weekend and don't forget to get your cards in for Bizzy Bec's tic-tac-toe challenge here.

Keep Warm

The Challenge for the month of April is..
"TIC-TAC-TOE"

 ...for those who are unsure on what to do...
it's like playing Bingo-you choose the 3 squares that you wish to follow from the Tic-Tac-Toe Grid either going  Across, Down or Diagonally in a Row.
ie :- Birthday - Dry Embossing - Lace or Ribbon...
....... theme by DT Carolyn
 The prize for this month is a
 "CHEERY LYNN DIE"
Bizzy Becs has a Pre-Order for these Gorgeous Dies in store, HERE

Recipe : Wedding - Bling - Dry Embossing
and I've used a  Memory Box Die - La Rue Heart, flowers and ribbon from card kit.

Now you may wonder why I've chosen to made a 50th Wedding Anniversary card - well in two weeks my parents will celebrate their golden anniversary and I thought - combine the challenge and their card and hey presto!
A Golden 50th Anniversary is certainly a momentous occasion and deserves celebration!

Well done to the winner of last month's challenge and I look forward to seeing what you make for this month's challenge.

Hi All,
sorry to have been missing in action, but I have been working more than full time this month.
 Thank goodness its finished now and am just doing some casual work.. 
more crafting time is definitely needed!

The Challenge for the month of MARCH  is..
 "ANYTHING GOES" .....theme by Dt Jodene.
and you could win 
MEMORY BOX DIE...( a surprise )

I thought I would get a head start on my Christmas cards
 as last year no-one got one as we were in the middle of moving.

Below is a quick and easy Christmas card to whip up - 
I used  the Memory box die - Joy and a couple of blingy diamontes..
You can pick this die and many others up from Bizzy Bec's store - here

Don't sit under the apple tree with anyone else but ME!

 
Just thought I would share the card 
I've made for my wonderful husband for Valentine's day.
 I hope you like it!
Now the verse is an old Andrew's sister's song - you can listen to it here
And you're quite right in asking - what the heck?
Since we moved into our new house - there is an apple tree in the backyard
and as we dont have a patio or shade - we've been sitting under it.
Of course it reminded me of the song and so I've been singing it for the last month or two..

Righto down to business now - I've coloured a Magnolia image with my copics and used the Memory box dies - twiggy tree with the heart canopy and the Madison Park Bench is a Poppy die.
Don't forget to pop into Bizzy Bec's store to get all your crafty supplies - here
And there is still time to whip up a card to enter the February challenge for Bizzy bec - here

I hope you like it as much as the husband did.

hugs to all
