Bloggabella Sketch...



Both these cards are made following a sketch on the Stamping Bella blog.
I have made them for the girl at the Estate Agents,we used,she has been really helpful & as it has taken soooo long to sell our house,we have become friendly,so to say thankyou,I made her the top card using Sellabella,coloured with ProMarkers,papers are K&Co Madeline,corners are Quickutz die,rest from stash.
The second card is because she is also having a baby & has just found out it's a boy,so just wanted to wish her & the baby well.I used Mamabella stamp,coloured with ProMarkers,paper is Craft Creations,stars are Quickutz die,rest from stash.
We are moving on Tuesday (22nd),it feels strange now,bit sad,excited,scared,lots of things really.
We have ben informed that it can take up to 6 weeks for internet connection,so it looks like I might not be blogging for a while,but please don't abandon me,I will deffo be back!!!
I wonder where I'm gonna craft,not decided yet,hmmmm!!!!
If anyone wants my new address just email me (link in side bar).
Thanx for looking & have a luvly weekend :o)xxx

Double Dutch Challenge #25~Back In Time...

( Sorry this pic is blurred,I was sober,honest!!!)
This fortnights DD challenge is to choose 1 of the previous challenges (all are listed for you).I luv DD,they are sooo creative & have taught me so many ideas & all are easy to follow,so I chose the 1st ever challenge,Purses 'R' Us & this is it.
The gorgeous stamp was sent to me by Jilli (Thanx x),coloured her with ProMarkers,card is Bazzill,papers I'm not too sure about got them in a kit,think they are called Katelyn.I made lil journalling cards to go inside the pockets (see below).Fab challenge & has taken me ages!!!

Now,a lil tale about my lil doggie Badger (see pic below,he is rather handsome!!!).
Badger has been going mad down the side of the shed,that is next to the joining wall with next door,he is whining & running about like a looney,I started to think there was either a mouse or a rat in the shed (ewww!),until yesterday!...

I got out of my car on the drive & saw some eyes peeping at me from inside the Garden Waste bags,on next doors drive,lol!!!!
Yes,they have a cat (it's the most angriest looking cat I have ever seen!!!) & it must be warm & cosy in the bag with the grass cuttings.Badger must have been able to hear/smell the cat over the wall & cos he's so tiny he was going barmy to get to it.
Panic over no mouse/rat,Phew!!!

Thanx for stopping by & have a luvly day :o)xxx
