Used my New Stamp

Well, I couldn't wait to use my new Clarity stamp that I got yesterday, so here's my first card that I've made using it. Its not the best photo as there's a glare across it.

Supplies: Clarity stamp, K & Co paper, bazzill card, watercolour pencils, baubles

Very restrained....

I was very restrained and only got these at the Papercraft Show I went to at Ringwood yesterday. It was a really good show! There was so much there I could have easily bought but I had to stop myself from spending any more as pennies are tight at the mo and with Christmas fast approaching I had to be good. Pleased with what I did get though!

Did anyone else go to the show?

Tagged!!

I've been tagged, first time for me!! I was tagged by Storm

"Here are the rules which you must abide by if you are tagged.

1. Link to your tagger and post these rules.

2. Share 7 facts about yourself: some random, some weird.

3. Tag 7 people at the end of your post and list their names (linking to them).

4. Let them know they've been tagged by leaving a comment at their blogs."

Okay, the 7 facts are:

1 I'm only 4 ft 11" tall, can manage 5 foot with heels on!!

2 I don't like really cold ice cream, I put it in the microwave for a few seconds to soften it!!

3 I qualified as a baton twirling trainer/judge in my late teens and ran my own troupe of twirlers for many years, although "retired" about 7 years ago.

4 I love the X Factor

5 I'm going to see Joseph and his amazing technicolour dream coat in London in 2 weeks time!!

6 I've been to Cyprus on holiday twice and would love to go again

7 I prefer dark chocolate to milk.

I'm not tagging another 7 people as everyone I know and everyone's blog I look at seems to have done this already.

Yippeee, look what has just arrived...

.....My new Bellas and Baubles!!
Can't wait to play with them!

Some cards...

Managed a few cards this week...

I got the bear stamp last weekend and this is my first card using him, I'm quite pleased with him but want to try doing him in some different colours.

Supplies: Hobby Arts Stamp, paper pieced scraf and presents, watercolour pencils, Christmas red paper, peel off borders.

I'm not normally a fan of using peel offs for the main part of the card but I thought this reindeer and sleigh raised up from the card work quite well.

Supplies: Peel off, acetate, Christmas paper and cardstock from stash, stones.

So excited...

I've just bought myself a present, well it is my birthday next Saturday! I've just ordered 3 Bellas and some baubles from here and now I can hardly wait for them to arrive, I've wanted some for ages.

Been Busy

I managed to have a crafting morning yesterday whilst Hannah was at school. I've finally finished a layout I've been doing. I've only just got into scrapbooking and this is the 3rd LO I've done. I'm not very good yet, but hopefully as I do more I'll get the hang of it.



Also did another christmas card with this cute Christmas angel stamp. I really need to do some more christmas cards.

Supplies: LO-Melissa Frances paper, glitter letters, brads (all stash) Card-Angel stamp coloured with marvys, glitter on wings, bazzill card, xmas paper (last years) and papermania gems
