Christmas Angel

Good morning all, today I am so excited to be able to tell you that Little Musings has released some flippin gorgeous Christmas Themed Angels and woweeeeeeeeeee they are gorgeous to work with! 

This year as with most years I have struggled to make Christmas cards but this year I have made 3 so far and get this I was singing Christmas carols too, I am defo in a Christmas card making mood!

So to start off with I thought I would show you my first make, Its a easel card using one of the new Angels Roybn

Isn't she gorgeous?  I have coloured her with Pro markers, the papers are a freebie from Simply Home made, The gems are from paper mania and I have used glitter on her wings but it doesn't show us too well. And the boarder punch is by Xcut and the little buttons ric rac stc are all from my stash.

Craft Your Days Away - Pink Brown and Blue

It has been 2 whole weeks since I last posted, how bad is that, I dont seem to be getting back into the swing of things at all!  Anyhow here we are with another Craft Your Days Away challenge the theme this time is Pink Brown and Blue.  As most of you already know we are a multi craft challenge blog so it doesnt have to be just a card.

This fortnight I have made a Tooth Fairy Pillow for my daughter, thank goodness I finished it as the tooth fell out last night, I was greeted at 3am with a huge smile and a missing front tooth, luckily she didnt swallow it!!!!!!!  So this evening the tooth will be placed in the pocket of this russian doll pillow so the little fairy doesnt have to search too hard to find it.

This fortnight we are sponsored by Simon Says Stamp.  They are offering our lucky winner chosen at ramdom a $10 spend in their online store.

Thanks so much for reading and I look forward to catching up with your blogs soon

Craft Your Days Away - mmmmmm Cupcake

I am such a bad bad blogger at the moment I have neglected this blog due to being a tad busy with family life, which I am sure lots of you will understand.  I shall be back on top blogging form in September when chaos is over and normality returns!

This fortnight over at CRAFT YOUR DAYS AWAY we have a CUPCAKE theme.........yummy!  As you all know we are a multi craft challenge so you can make what ever you please as long as it follows the theme.  So with this in mind I had a quiet moment the other day and sat and had a go at making some sewn items with a cupcake theme.  
Here is what I came up with.

The cupcake keyring is from a tutorial which I cant find now, there is a printable sheet for you to use as a template HA HA a wonderful blogger has found the template if you search for lisapay(dot)com  you can also follow the tute on utube Thanks so much 73mw you are a star You have to check out her blog its fab!!   (I made my own template as my printer is out of action at present).  The little cupcake pin cushion is a very simple make.

This fortnight we are sponsored by Simon says Stamp
