I think I picked up these gorgeous digi stamps from Mami Doodles, the papers were free with Simply cards and Papercrafts and are by Craftwork cards the flowers i got from Crafty Ideas by Kaz and Wild Orchid crafts, I'm still learning with promarkers but was very pleased with the end result.

The weather is absoulutely wonderful out and Spirit and KeishaBelle are thoroughly enjoying themselves going out and playing. Lets hope the good weather continues throughout the summer. I'm a spring baby at heart but do love the warm weather as long as it's comfortable and not over bearing. Now the days are getting longer I have more time to craft in daylight and try out new things.

Today I am waiting in for a delivery from Royal Mail as they are delivering my new hub. tomorrow a BT engineer is coming out to upgrade me to infinity so will see how much better that is than standard broadband.

I hope you are all enjoying this wonderful weather too

Mothering Sunday

Mother's day card

This is my latest project which I am rather proud of. I did it for my mum for Mothering Sunday. I used stamps from Crafters Companion and stamped and watercoloured them, stamping again on patterned papers from Stampin up! to paper peice the dresses. I used some flowers from Wild Orchid and some pretty glittery flower peel offs i had in my stash that I put on the same papers from the project. I then used a bit of card candy in complimentary colours and some gem stones.

Lily of the Valley

 I did this card using some new papers from Stampin Up! I've never used their products before but these were lovely to use and very effective. They matched perfectly with this gorgeous LOTV topper.

Ikea drawers

 I decided to revamp my craft space and I started with these drawers. I first painted them in emulsion to give them a key to work on and using some lovely K & Co papers that were to good to be used I covered the drawers to personalise them. I was really impressed with myself as this is the first time I've attempted a project on this scale.

Desk Tidy

Desk Tidy

I'm a big fan of recycling and being 'organised'. The lovely papers were from Debbie Moore's papercraft magazine. On the tin I added some flowers from Wild Orchid and a few gems to finish it. The glass jar was an old candle which I have wrapped with the same papers and put a band a co-ordinating ribbon around the lip of the jar. Now I can keep my table 'tidy' whilst I'm working and stops Keisha from taking any of my tools for a walk.
