Wedding Card

Good Morning

I can't believe what a bad blogger I have been and that I haven't posted since May !!! I don't even know what I have been doing - and I think I lost my inspiration a little - anyway hopefully it's back now.

I just wanted to share with you the creations I have made for my gorgeous friend Sophie who asked me to make her wedding invitations - Sophie and Martin get married next year in Cyprus and they wanted their invites to be a little less traditional than normal invites. Sophie came up with the idea of a flip-flop and I thought - I have got just the thing on the Life's a Beach cricuit cartridge. I am really pleased with them !!!

Sophie hasn't seen the completed set yet - they are sat on my desk awaiting collection as Soph and Martin have been on their jollys.

So if you are reading this Sophie hope you had a wonderful holiday and once again a big congratulations on setting the date for the big day - I wish you both all the happiness in the world.

........To the rest of my fellow crafting buddies and followers I promise to post a bit more often over the next few months.

Thanks for visiting, Kitty xxxx

Slice of cake - very few calories !!!!

Hello Everyone

I just have to share with you a little project I have been working on. Crochet slices of cake, when I saw them I just fell in love with them and thought I have to have a go at making some of those. I got the pattern from here http://www.etsy.com/shop/lynnespatternparlour and you can find Lynnes blog here http://lynnespatternparlour.blogspot.com/. Lynne has some beautiful patterns and her instructions are really easy to follow (I have managed to progress from Granny Squares to this).

Happy Tuesday, thanks for stopping by and for leaving any comments.

Har Repotter from Bugaboo Digital Stamps

Hello Everyone

I can't believe it's so long since I blogged - I think I lost my mojo a little bit and I just don't know where the time has gone. Just a quick post today to show you the card I made for TC, who turned 5 a few weeks ago. I couldn't resist these images when I found them at http://www.bugaboostamps.com/. Although TC isn't a really big fan of Harry (I think he is still a bit young) he does know who he is and who all the other characters are (which is more than I do - hence why I haven't got the colours right of all the characters, hair colours, outfits etc etc as Mr Kitty-Cat kindly pointed out when I finished my card :-( ). When TC was really little (he's always been a talker - took forever to walk but would have a full blown conversation with any adult at just turned two) I think he was about two we could be out in the car and all of a sudden he would say 'look there is Harrypottomus' !! Mr Kitty-Cat and I would look at one another and think who's he talking about - we thought it was someone on Cebeebies. It was only one day when we were all sat around watching TV and there was a trailer for one of the films that we realised who he was talking about. We think we must have kept driving past a poster of him at the bus stop and that was where he saw Harrypottomus. - Bless him.

Anyway better go - I will try and be a better blogger this week !

Love and hugs

Ladybird For The Lovely Faye

Hello just a quickie from me this evening, this is just a little card for the lovely Faye over at http://stampinfluffnstuff.blogspot.com/ who so kindly helped with my blinkie nightmare on Saturday. If it hadn't been for Faye I would have eaten my own weight in chocolate digestives and then probably started on the wine (that is a joke about the wine if my parents or Mr Kitty cat are reading this - a bottle of wine can last me at least a week these days in fact it has virtually turned to vinegar by the time I get to the end of a bottle).

Anyway the wonderful Faye sorted out my problem and now I can display everyone's blinkies to my hearts content.

Happy Sunday Everyone

PS I forgot to say the card is made from Polka Doodles paper and tag sentiment and the ladybird ribbon was a freebie from http://www.craftyribbons.com/ recently when I bought some beautiful dotty ribbons, In fact I got the ribbons in 32 different colours and they look so nice I dont want to use them !!!!!!

Willow Sketchie Challenge

Hello I hope everyone is having a fabulous Easter and that as well as having lots of fun and eating plenty of chocolate everyone is having time to put their feet up.

Here is my creation for the Willow Sketchie Challenge of which all the details can be found here http://willowsketchiechallenge.blogspot.com/.

To make this card I used the sketch above which can be found on the blog (although I did turn mine around) and an image from the new Polka Doodles Double Sprinkles CD which I coloured in using my Pro-Markers. I can't praise the CD enough as Sharon gives fabulous tutorials on how to colour all the characters in. I then used some papers that I had free in creative cardmaking, many moons ago. Using the cocktail sticks I then did a little bit of knitting and stuck a bead on the end of my sticks.

I have a bit of time off work now so hopefully I will be able to make a few cards this week.

Thanks for Reading

Artwork By TC Age 4

Hello, Just a quick post to share with you a few of the pictures TC has drawn this evening, I knows he's my boy and therefore I am bias but I just think they are so cute. The one of the couple at the top is his interpretation of William and Kate - standing in a crown !

Next post will be a card I promise.

Have a lovely evening

Kitty
