Duck Pond Delights

This week I am playing catch up which isn't a bad thing as yesterday I had some time to play with the gorgeous Blooms Kit from Duck Pond Crafts.  If you check back a couple of posts you will see the fabulous goodies that come in a blooms kit but each month they are very different but still fabulous.  This month was christmas themed BUT as you will see in tomorrows post you dont have to use your goodies for christmas makes they can be used for anything!

Ribbon, Flowers which have been layerd, buttons, ribbon and card candy are all from the kit but you get LOADs of each so plenty to make lots of things.

I also made a little gift box card that can be filled with sweets or anything christmasy.
The Snowflakes are chipboard and I have painted them with Acrylic paints and added some fine glitter.  The ribbon is from the blooms kit.
Here is a reminder pic of what was in the Blooms Kit this month
The Kits are £11 posted and this month (november) has a fantastic theme that I had a little part to play in!

I shall be back tomorrow with another blooms kit piccy 

Thanks for stopping by and dont forget to go check out

Look At This!!!

I just wanted to share a quick post about a gorgeous Kit that has landed on my door mat this week from the lovely Karen
of 
I have never had a kit from her before or anyone else for that matter and I have always wondered what exactly was in the gorgeous package.  
Well here is a piccy of what I have to play with in this month's 
BLOOMS Kit (xmas for this month)
There is quite simply LOADS of stuff, I had to squeeze it all together to get it all in the picture there are flowers on flowers and a huge mass of card candy and check out the pile of different chipboard snow flakes!

I cant wait to get making with these goodies, if you find getting your colours combo's and themes right on cards then these kits really help!  
Karen also has card makers kits available too!  In fact you could buy both and you would be totally sorted!
Each Kit is £11 Posted in the uk, she does ship internationally for a extra £1.00, don't think you can beat that its a fab deal! 

If you want to find out more then check out the details 
Karen is a lovely lady so feel free to ask her about her kits she will be more than happy to help.

I will be back tomorrow with a Brand New Sparkles Challenge 
Bye for now

Craft Your Days Away - Spooky colour theme

Happy Saturday all, we have a new challenge over at Craft Your Days Away and it is a colour theme all to do with Halloween so Purple, Green, Orange, Black you get the idea I am sure.  
This fortnight we are sponsered by 

Here is my take on the theme, I dont have much call for halloween type cards 
so thought I would make a treat bag.

 The halloween papers are from Susans crafty chaos online digi store and are a brilliant set I used them last year and there are so many fabby designs in the set very spooky!
The spider and cobweb are from Tesco, you can buy a pack of them for £1.00 and there are loads of spiders in them and enough cobwebs to make lots of packs!  The lollipops are from matalan they have lots of spooky treats for you to buy including body parts and eyeballs. The ticket sentiment is a freebie that is on the net.

We are a multicraft challenge blog so there are lots of spooky options if you dont want to make a card, I look forward to seeing what you come up with on my visits to your blogs.
Have a great weekend
