Glitter Me Silly

Those of you who visit me regularly may remember me becoming (prematurely) excited about my SiL being in labour!  As I’m sure you realised it was a false alarm but the good news is that today – baby Benjamin Zac arrived!!  All 8ib 11oz of him!!  That brought a wee tear to my eye (mine were more the 5lb variety)!  But although a bit battered and bruised, mother and baby are fine – phew!  My other SiL is expecting her 4th (we know this one’s another boy too) in 6 weeks so the waiting game isn’t over yet!

I made Kate and Andy this card this afternoon – bought this beautiful WOJ especially for the event!  I have coloured her with PMs and the papers are SU Tea Party.  The sentiment is a rub on.

Right, better go and get some slap on!  Off out tonight for a meal at The Green Room in West Kirby (one of my favourite restaurants).  Can’t wait – I’m startving!

The challenge this week at A Spoonful of Sugar is Weddings. There are some really beautiful DT cards for inspiration on the blog so hop over for a mooch. I have used a stamp by Fun Stamps that has been gathering dust for centuries in my cupboard. I almost for got I had it to be truthful. I have added just a bit of colour with my Promarkers and glamour dusted it here and there. The gorgeous paper is from the Sweet Stack by DCWV – I will be so sad when I use it all up! This is pretty plain compared to what I’ve been doing of late but sometimes it’s nice to do something a bit different!

We are very luck to have Nikki (Bunny Zoe’s Crafts) sponsoring us this week with some fabulous goodies from her new store. If you haven’t checked it out yet then please pop over for a look. She has some very different things – I love the personalised stamps.

Ok, thanks for visiting, have a great Tuesday.

There is a GORGEOUS colour combo for the challenge this week over at Passion For Promarkers – Lemon and Meadow Green. I really enjoyed making my card for this challenge, the colours go so well together. I just got this gorgeous WOJ stamp and I just LOVE her, Elizabeth Bell images are just a dream to colour. The papers are from K&Co from a QVC kit (I’m getting it used – slowly!)

Promarkers used: Lemon, canary, gold, meadow green, apple, Cocoa, cinnamon, henna, raw sienna, saffron, berry red and ruby.

We have the fabulous Angel Crafts sponsoring us this week so if you fancy a chance to win a £10 voucher to spend on goodies then pop over to the blog and have a go. I will be back a bit later with my DT card for A Spoonful of Sugar – thanks for popping by.
