Feeling a bit more upright today lol.
Pretty nice day outside and I hope it stays around!
The garden is looking a bit worse for wear and the house

Be mine!


Our new theme at
has been chosen by Valerie and she has gone with
Be my Valentine!

For my tag I used a piece of poppy parade card which
 I stamped with hearts in matching ink.
I then stamped and punched a variety of hearts
and laid they on my tag.
I chopped up the sentiment and finished with a piece
of gold braid.

I hope you get time to join us!!

Something to crow about!


It's time for our February challenge over at
where you can go with ANYTHING GOES theme or join in with us and
try the ANIMALS/BIRDS/ CREATURES theme.

We have an amazing prize up for grabs so definitely worth
entering your projects!!





For my card I have gone with chickens!
I used the Hey Chuck stamp set and created a little scene
for three of the chucks.
I did a bit of masking so I could fit all three on the fence.
They have been coloured and then layered up onto
some gingham paper and pretty peacock card.
I finished it off with some pearlized enamel effects
and a cute sentiment.

I hope you get time to join us this month!

Scrappy Friday


My scrappy card today used up some 6" papers.
I just ripped them at different angles and
had a go at placing them together.
I added a die cut circle and some foliage cut using the
Gorgeously Made Bundle.
