He’s coming!!

baby boy pink gem

My gorgeous SiL Nikki has gone in to labour!!  This is baby number 4 and is a boy after having 3 girls!!  I have had this card ready for the past week as I knew she was going to have it early (she’s not due till 8th August).  She just looked fit to burst!!

I will hopefully be back with the good news later.  EEEEE I’m excited!

Hugs,

Ida’s Sketch on PFP FP on FB.

Ida's sketch

Ok, if you’re wondering what on earth I’m talking about, it’s the Passion For ProMarkers sketch challenge over on our new fan page on FaceBook.  I showed you the gorgeous sketch by Ida t’other day (scroll down a bit – it’s fab) and this is my DT card for said sketch.  The image was in the bundle sent to me by the fabulous Katy (with the blogeroo!) and she is coloured with ProMarkers (Rose pink and blossom mainly).  The papers are Stampin Up, and the little leafy bits were cut on the Cricut (Storybook font).  There is still time to get a card done for the challenge and there is a great prize up for grabs too.

A Spoonful of Sugar #61 – Swirls

challenge 61 - swirls

This week at ASOS we want to see Swirls on your cards.  There are all kinds of ways to achieve this as you will see from the fabulous DT cards over on the blog.  We also have a rather fabulous prize donated by Squiggle Stamps, a brand new craft company.  Check out their website – well worth a visit.

I have used the fabulous WOJ “Willow with baby” stamp this week and coloured her with Copics ….ONLY KIDDING, just seeing if you’re awake, of course I used my beloved ProMarkers!!  The papers are from DCWV Nana’s Nursery (Baby Boy) – loving these stacks –  and I picked the little roses up at The Range.  The swirls are American Crafts rub-ons.

Hope you’re all having a lovley day – it’s wet and miserable here but at least it means I’m forced to get on with the dreaded HW instead of going to the beach!!

Hugs,
